Built around world-famous CineMag USA Transformer topology and engineering, like no other DI Boxes in the world. Constructed with top-tier discrete components housed in rugged aluminum chassis’ that include switches, knobs and connectors that are all designed to withstand heavy abuse on the road or in the studio.
From the Manufacturer
Warm Audio DI boxes offer the rare versatility of having an onboard variable pad knob which attenuates your input signal all the way from -3dB to -30dB, which will easily tame any instrument input source. Active VS Passive? The Active Direct Box offers a Thru-put jack that is jumpered to the input jack. It is a convenience jack allowing you to send your instrument’s signal to a second place in addition to the live mixer or recording device. Our Direct Boxes can also take a recorded signal at line level and send it to another line input while simultaneously sending signal out of the XLR mic level output of the Direct Box. What is a DI Box? The versatility of a DI Box allows you to connect instruments such as guitar, bass, keyboard, or drum machines directly to a PA or recording system. Simply put, a DI box converts the high impedance, unbalanced output signals to low impedance, balanced output signals. By doing so, the instrument signals are now converted to the proper voltage level for the PA or recording system – which greatly reduces and/or eliminates connections that could cause tonal shifts and distortion.

New DI Box ExperienceBoth of our Direct Boxes offer a Thru-put jack that is jumpered to the input jack. This convenience jack allows you to send your instrument’s signal to a second place in addition to the live mixer or recording device. Our Direct Boxes can also take a recorded signal at line level and send it to another line input while simultaneously sending the signal out of the XLR mic-level output of the Direct Box. |
Applications of Passive and Active DI BoxDirect Box Passive is best for balancing the signal of instruments with active electronics but still performs exceptionally well on passive pickups by producing a frequency range that exceeds the bandwidth of most passive DI boxes on the market. |

A must have for any studioI have been running a studio and recording in studios for three last 15 years. For the price of this compared to other big names what this DI offers is un beatable. My favorite feature is the active and passive switche… for guitars and bass player this box is a must have for recording. Super solid construction and all around great products.. I have 3 of these now and I won’t buy another DI BOX but only the Warm Audio. There mics are amazing as well. So do t worry or stress on spending your money this DI is worth it’s weight in gold.
