UTILIZATION

Not rocket science in using an Active DI Box! The manual is simple and concise, but adequate, with a description of the specifications.

SOUND QUALITY

I did not notice any particular color to use, particular impact or low-cut filter on the sound quality.

I use it in output pedalboard for electric guitar, before attacking the sound. This is a high quality pedalboard.

My electric guitars are, among others, an Ibanez AK95 and ESP Forest GT Standard: typed and sounds very different!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for almost 7 months.

I have nothing negative to say: it is his job and forget. I did not notice any sound deterioration. I use it exclusively Phantom Power and can not give any indication of the duration of the 9v battery.

Otherwise, I like the look and quality of workmanship. But its shape is not very practical for installation on a pedalboard.

I see no reason not to repeat that choice! Especially since the price is in the middle of DI Box input range. I'll also get one second shortly.


Art Xdirect this satisfies me in that I actually use!
