"The Para DI is a simple single channel preamp that maximizes your signal and tone while allowing excellent control in the form of EQ, Notch and gain/volume. This little box is easy to travel with both because of it's size and the fact this it's one of the very few that will run on phantom power from a board, thus allowing you to forget about batteries or European voltages. The Para DI also works great with passive pickups a big advantage over others that only work with active ones." - Paul Heumiller - Discrete pure class A FET input for audiophile-quality sound and very low noise - 5 Band EQ controls include treble, presence and bass controls, along with tunable notch filter and sweepable mid EQ with 2 octave range - Phase inversion switch for increased feedback control - Proprietary Quasi-Passive EQ™ places synthesized passive EQ circuitry in a parallel side-chain with main signal for control of instrument voicing without sacrificing tonal purity - 24 dB of adjustable gain for optimum performance and the lowest noise with a variety of input sources, including low output pickups - Balanced XLR and unbalanced ¼” outputs for use with an amp or PA or both simultaneously - High input impedance (10 Meg) delivers the full potential of any pickup - High current buffered output drives long cables into difficult, low impedance loads without fidelity loss - Heavy duty steel box provides extra protection - Runs on 48V phantom power or 9V battery, which provides 200 hours of playtime - External battery compartment allows quick and easy battery changes Specifications: Size: 5.6" x 3.6" x 1.9" Weight: 14.5 oz.
