dbx DJDI Passive 2-Channel Direct Box with Line Mixer

I'm using this passive DI for a reamp loop. DAW goes out via reamp box, through a pedal chain, through the DI back in. The impedance matching works well, keeps the noise low. There's a single attenuator for both channels, but since my last pedal is stereo, the channel pair is reasonably balanced. If you're running two different signals then it may pose an issue. Similarly there's a single ground lift button for both channels, and that is great to have if you've got power loop issues.It's a good size considering what it does, does not require power, seems to be built well, and I anticipate it'll last a long time in a studio setting, but is ready for gigging too.

I am only using this piece of gear as a DI unbalanced to balanced converter. It works so well. Any one of my instruments (all of which have unbalanced outputs) can all be heard crystal clear and ready for recording. I purchased this used and in great condition and I won on this. Great value here. Now in the future, when I get a mixing board, I am still set with this. Thanks!

Amazing product for the price! I am so surprised that this piece of technology has not taken off in the market yet. Four high-quality active direct boxes for under $100? That's impressive. So grateful I found it and freed up four individual direct boxes!No noise. Individual signal control. Three pad settings. Built in mixer. Individual ground lift option.Heads up, this unit requires an external power unit (wart included). I do not believe it functions with phantom power.

While the DBX is very good at ridding noise and I hear new instruments (details), the Radial Pro Av2 is on another level taking me to the live music venue.I use Apple Music.I have. $17k 2.2 stereo system.

I do midsize stages and events up to 1000 people at the time. In the small event the sound technicians NEVER have a good DI box. This covered my A55 so many times, I can’t even count.

I love this thing. Used it for drum machine 1/4" outs to XLR snake. No problems. Quiet as in NO noise. I didn't use the line mixer feature but as a direct box only. Has all the features of an active direct box with atteniuation, ground lift, etc. A no brainer at this price.

After chasing down some pervasive and annoying USB noise to a ground loop issue, this DI box did the trick in ridding my system of dreaded hum. I connect the unbalanced output of my audio interface to the balanced inputs on my JBL LSR system, hit the ground lift switch and the hum is instantly eliminated. I'm not entirely sure why these are so expensive, (I paid $50) but the build quality is very sturdy and after being driven mad by USB noise for the past months I'm just glad I was able to fix it. There is a bit of volume drop on the speakers, but this is easily overcome. Otherwise, the unit does everything I could ever dream of; clean quiet connections.

It gets the job done, but lasted less than a total of 6 hours of playing time.
