Description

ART PDB Details
The 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.

The PDB� also allows connection of a music source to an instrument amplifier while simultaneously patching it to a mixer.

ART PDB Applications

1. Electric 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.

2. Keyboards 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).

3. DJ 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.

4. Speaker level signals - The PDB�s ability to accept speaker level inputs from a power amplifier�s output allows post-amplifier, post eq and effects signals to be fed directly to the console. In this manner, a particular effect or amplifier sound can be sent directly to the mix.
