Introducing the Chord DI-P1 passive DI box
This passive direct injection box is perfect for connecting your musical instrument to a desk. It converts high impedance instrument outputs to low impedance line signals for feeding directly into your mixing console. This unit is equipped with 3 pad settings. It also features an RF/mains filter and selector for ground lift with or without filter.
The ground lift option isolates signal ground without filter, while the ground float option is for ground lift with RF/mains filter.
Active or passive, what is the difference?
Simply put, an active DI box requires power, and the passive does not. The passive is essentially a transformer, balancing the signal. An active DI box also includes a preamplifier which provides a stronger signal, making them ideal for use with lower-level input signals.
