Behringer DI100 Active DI
The Behringer Ultra-DI DI100 Battery/Phantom Powered DI Box is a road warrior. Studio warrior, too. Onstage and in the studio, the DI100 handles the all-important task of converting your unbalanced guitar, bass, and keyboard sources into the noise-free balanced signals your console wants to see. Thanks to the DI100’s pad, you can even connect it to the output of your guitar amp! Of course, you get a ground lift, and the internal battery shuts down when phantom power is applied. Great sound – in a road-tough aluminum case with stackable rubber corners – that’s Behringer’s Ultra-DI DI100.
High-quality components and exceptionally rugged construction ensure long life and durability. Unlike a passive DI where the frequency response of the signal can be altered depending on the connected impedance, an active DI buffers the input signal with an amplifier. This assures that the sound source will reach the mixer balanced and noise-free. Multi-purpose direct injection box for stage and studio applications. Provides impedance and signal matching for direct connection of instruments to mixers and amplifiers. Ultra-flat frequency response courtesy of Behringer OT-1 transformer.
The input-buffering amplifier also ensures a clean, pure, and powerful sound when using extremely long cables. The ULTRA DI DI100 features Behringer’s OT-1 output transformer and the unit will also easily deal with a guitar amplifier’s speaker output, handling up to 3,000 Watts. The DI can be powered either from the phantom power of a mixer or by using a 9V battery.
