{"product_id":"art-pdb-passive-direct-box","title":"ART PDB Passive Direct Box","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe PDB™ Passive Direct Box is a rock solid, roadworthy DI for connection of the outputs of electronic musical instruments (or other audio sources) to the balanced inputs of mixer consoles and other balanced inputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe PDB™ also allows the connection of a music source to an instrument amplifier while simultaneously patching it to a mixer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePDB Applications:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eElectric guitar and bass pick-up output signals – 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeyboards and line level signals – 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).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDJ console output signals – 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpeaker level signals – The PDB’s ability to accept speaker level inputs from a power amplifier’s output allows post-amplifier, post eq and effects signal to be fed directly to the console. In this manner, a particular effect or amplifier sound can be sent directly to the mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrequency Response\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e10 Hz – 50 kHz +\/- 0.5dB @ +4dBu\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOutput Connections\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e600 ?
