About Warm Audio Direct Box

Before you settle for any ordinary direct box, consider the Passive Direct Box for Electric Instruments from Warm Audio. This high-quality, durable, and reliable device is specifically designed to enhance the sound quality of your electric instruments, including guitars, basses, keyboards, and more.

Unlike most passive DI boxes on the market, this innovative product excels in balancing the signal of instruments with active electronics, while also delivering superior performance on passive pickups. It produces a frequency range that surpasses the bandwidth of many competitors, ensuring your instrument's tone remains undiminished.

The Passive Direct Box is built around the world-renowned CineMag USA Transformer topology and engineering, setting it apart from other DI boxes. It's constructed with top-tier discrete components, all housed in a rugged aluminum chassis. The switches, knobs, and connectors are all designed to endure heavy use, whether on the road or in the studio.

One of the standout features of this professional-grade direct box is its USA custom CineMag transformers. Every aspect of this product is designed for maximum sonic integrity. Expect warm, rich tones even after long cable runs, and the extruded aluminum enclosure guarantees a long lifespan.

When it comes to converting an instrument-level signal to mic-level, with sonic quality as your top priority, the Passive Direct Box from Warm Audio is an excellent choice. It offers the unique versatility of an onboard variable pad knob, which attenuates your input signal from -3dB to -30dB, easily taming any instrument input source.

Furthermore, this direct box features a Thru-put jack that is jumpered to the input jack, providing a convenient way to send your instrument's signal to a second location, in addition to the live mixer or recording device. It can also take a recorded signal at line level and send it to another line input while simultaneously sending signal out of the XLR mic level output of the Direct Box.

In essence, this Passive Direct Box is ideal for connecting electronic instruments directly to a PA or recording system. It converts high impedance, unbalanced output signals to low impedance, balanced output signals, adjusting the instrument signals to the proper voltage level for the PA or recording system. This greatly reduces and/or eliminates connections that could cause tonal shifts and distortion, ensuring your sound remains pure and true.
