Description
THROUGHPUT/TUNER
Unprocessed signal to be sent to an amplifier on stage and the PA via the balanced XLR output. For example, for the bass guitar, use an amplifier only for onstage monitoring and decreasing stage volume. It allows for longer cable runs or effects pedal chains.
PHASE SWITCH
With the phase switch, the direct box can reverse polarity to align the absolute polarity of a direct signal with that of a microphone on the same source, bass, and acoustic guitar. It is also handy to prevent feedback in case the mixer channel isn’t equipped with a polarity reverse.
STRESS-FREE USE
The SG-DB01 guitar direct box is strong and with an anti-slip sponge at the bottom. Easy and secure to use in different circumstances. No matter as a guitar DI box or DI box for bass guitar. It is solid and durable with high-quality steel and a special protector box design.
PROTECTION FOR YOUR INSTRUMENTS
The direct injection audio signal box is fundamental to protecting your musical instruments, sound mixer, or console during live performances or recording events.

Great clean sound!
Works like a treat! Just hook it in line and go! It’s that easy, and the sound/signal is both strong and clean, it’s wonderful.

Works great, lots of useful features
This DI box seems to be almost a direct copy of the significantly more expensive Radial passive DI that I’ve used for years and prefer over almost any other box. You’ve got your 1/4 inch in and XLR out with 1/4 inch passthrough. There’s a pad on the input to prevent clipping if you are using higher gain inputs. The output side has a phase switch which can help if you have a signal 180 degrees out of phase.Overall quality is very good, and this box is durable enough to be kicked around on stage without getting damaged. It’s a lot better than I expected and there’s no noise at all when I use it, with or without the ground lift. For problematic venues, the ground lift can greatly reduce noise and it’s recessed in one side so it doesn’t get accidentally pressed. I have no complaints about this direct box at all. It is well built, works well, and is very affordable compared to the Pro DI which has the same features at over twice the price. The main difference is those are made in Canada and you can guess where this DI box is made (it’s China. It’s always China).

Great alternative to more expensive DI boxes
This does exactly what a DI box should do. It’s a great way to get a direct line level signal into a mixer and split it. If you’re clever enough you can use this as a reamping solution as well. It runs on 48v phantom power and the ground lift is in a place where it’s hard to accidentally bump it. The phase switch button is a nice addition too. I think the “tuner” out is mislabeled. Really it’s just an additional output for anything taking an instrument level signal. Overall a great pick.

Just what I needed!
I needed to be a able to run a 50 ft. Microphone cable for open mics, with no added noise. This direct does the job beautifully- it is compact, light, solidly built and just gets the job done!
