This rock solid, roadworthy DI Box allows for the connection of the outputs of electronic
musical instruments (or other audio sources) to the balanced inputs of mixer consoles.
The PDB™ features switchable Input Attenuation (0 dB, -20dB, -40dB), a 50k Ohm Instrument
Input, 50k Ohm Parallel Link jack, a 600 Ohm XLR Output Jack, and a switchable Ground Lift.
The high impedance signal from a guitar or bass guitar pickup is translated by the PDB™ into
a low impedance balanced signal required by mixing consoles. The PDB™ also allows
connection of a music source to an instrument amplifier while simultaneously patching it to a
mixer.
The PDB™ automatically balances and matches the line level outputs of modern electronic
keyboards. If you are using a multiple keyboard setup and your keyboards are all plugged
into a single instrument amplifier, the PDB can be used to replace individual direct boxes.
Simply send the output of the instrument amplifier to the PDB™ and then to the console
(instead of a separate DI box for each keyboard).
DJ mixers often supply only an unbalanced 10dB signal. The PDB™ converts this signal to a
balanced line level signal before it reaches the console, while providing a convenient
method of connector transition with the capability to run long cables.
