Tube DI Box

Active, tube-based DI box with a four-band filter circuit.
In addition to the standard parallel and balanced mic level outputs the PDI-CTC also features both a balanced line level and a ¼" unbalanced low impedance output. The wide band low, lo-mid, hi-mid, and high frequency filters are "musically" voiced. A bell-shape filter characteristic has been chosen to prevent boosting undesirable subsonic frequencies as well as those beyond the audio range.
To exactly reproduce sound settings each and every time Palmer decided on individual toggle switches to set each of the four frequency bands to 0dB, +4dB, or +8dB. Essentially, the PDI-CTC circuit design is based on the idea to realize the shortest possible signal path in order to bring out the subtle tone characteristics of a tube. For that reason the unit does not incorporate a volume control. Due to the unit's extended dynamic range no limiting occurs before signal levels exceed +30dBu at the line output.
Features
- 2U rackmount DI with tube based preamp
- 4-band filter circuit
- Mic and line-level
- XLR outputs
- Balanced line level and a ¼" unbalanced low impedance output
- Short signal path provide a very clean output
- Four-band sound shaping
If you want more than a standard DI box, order the Palmer PDI-CTC.
