MGR/Kurt « Behringer GI100 Ultra G Active DI Box »
Published on 01/11/04 at 15:00Hello,
I purchased through ZZSOUNDS.com on 12/30/03. I paid $32.00 plus shipping 2 day was $7.00 UPS. and I live in Madison Wisconsin. I purchaced this item because I am totally broke and can't afford much fun. I only make like $9.00 hour (not bad for a college graduate hey!). So in the 1st time in about 2 years I gave into my impulses and put my budget in the back seat.
I am reviewing the Behringer GI100 Ultra G Active DI Box . I bought it It is a tough brushed red Aluminum DI box. This unit can run on phantom Power. Plus it can be used to take the place of setting up a microphone to record an instruments amp. This GI 100 Ultra G has a distinctively crisp 4x12 cabinet simulator on/off button. The simulator works best when you are useing a distortion, phaser, flange, effect. The clean sound is not as noticable but blues effects sound good too.
It makes my 2x12 amp sound like a 6x12 - now take that 32.00 to the bank baby!!!!
DI boxes are great because when I play on a stage and there is alot of wires. The equiptment can turn into a big antenna whereby alot of crazy uncontrollable sound and feedback like noises occure. So it is a good thing to use. I also like that I can use it to make the level of my equipment equal the sound best performance and less or more noise.
I do not like that it cost money.
A good instrument or equiptment should
be free. But really, i couldn't tell you a bad thing.
German - what can you say
they ROCK !!!! Great construction.
Great investment.
Lots of fun.
Kurt
