Do you want to capture the pure, unprocessed sound of your instruments, but your bass and guitar sound dull, and your keyboard signal is buzzing? Then you need a DI box—and a good one at that—to ensure your sound doesn’t get lost in the cable.
The BRIDGE 4A from Palmer is a 4-channel, active DI box in 19″ rack format for feeding the unbalanced and high-impedance signals of electric instruments such as guitar, bass, keyboard, or synthesizer into the microphone inputs of a mixing console. It delivers a transformer-balanced, low-impedance signal at the outputs and eliminates mains hum and interference caused by ground loops. This ensures a pristine sound: brilliant, low-noise, and free of interference.
Each channel is equipped with a 6.3 mm jack input, a THRU out for routing the input signals, e.g., to an amplifier, and two transformer-balanced XLR outputs – one on the front and one on the rear. Thanks to a switchable 30 dB pre-attenuation, the BRIDGE 4A can handle extremely high input levels in addition to line signals, allowing it to be looped between the amplifier output and loudspeakers, for example. The Audio Over Cat output enables the signals of all four channels to be routed via a single Cat cable (Cat5e or higher). This saves material, space, and time. The active circuitry leaves the frequency response unaffected, achieves a high dynamic range, and delivers a higher output level than a passive DI box.
The BRIDGE 4A is the optimal solution for sound engineers, semi-professional and professional musicians as well as recording studios that value reliable and durable products.
