Using your Audibox

The AV-DI is a Direct Injection, or

Direct, box. It is a self contained,

stand alone stereo unit designed to

interface a left and right pair of un-

balanced high impedance lines with

professional balanced low imped-

ance inputs. In other words, it will

convertconsumer audio signalsinto

ones that are happy to travel down

a long line and meet a mixing con-

sole at the other end. It has many

applications for Live Sound, Studio

or Broadcast use.

Typical input types are:

• Consumer audio products - MP3

players, laptop computer sound

cards,CD players, audiofromDVD

players, cassette decks, tape decks,

VCR audio and more

Operating instructions

Input Connections A stereo high

impedance source (instrument, un-

balanced lines or similar) plugs into

Inputs A and B (typically Left to A

and Right to B). Pushing the Pad

Special Note. The AV-DI is a Line

level device, so it is not designed to

accept Microphone level signals.

Output Connections Connect a

balanced microphone lead from

each 3 pin XLR connector on the

needs power to run. This power can

be supplied 2 ways:

•Phantom power: The AV-DI will

also run on Phantom power if avail-

ableon theconsole.SwitchthePhan-
