On-Stage DB2050 – Active Stereo Multi-Media DI Box

On-Stage DB2050 Active Stereo Multimedia DI Box Connect your computer, mobile device, DJ mixer, or keyboard directly to your preferred mic preamps with the On-Stage DB2050 active stereo multimedia DI box. It adapts high-impedance, line-level signals from the 1/4″ TS, 3.5mm TRS, or RCA coaxial input jacks to two low-impedance, mic-level, isolated XLR outputs. By converting your signal from unbalanced to balanced, it allows longer cable runs, less noise, and proper compatibility with mic inputs. Parallel inputs and dedicated RCA thru jacks provide an unbalanced pass-through for easy connection to a personal mixer or secondary recorder. Flip the -15 dB pad switch to prevent distortion when accepting high-output sources, and utilize the ground-lift switch to rid your signal of hum from ground loops. Since the DB2050 is a phantom-powered direct box, no batteries, power cables, or AC adapters are required. It features a durable metal housing with protective nylon bumpers, making it equally well suited for constant use in the studio, on stage, or at home. Ideal for connecting the stereo output of a keyboard, computer, smartphone, DJ mixer, or CD player to a mixing console, an audio interface, or outboard mic preamps Transforms unbalanced line-level input signal to balanced, low-impedance, mic-level output signal Isolated 1/4″ TS, 3.5mm TRS, and RCA inputs Selectable -15 dB pad prevents distortion when accepting high-output sources Isolated 3-pin XLR male output sockets for direct connection to microphone preamps or mixer channels RCA outputs and parallel inputs may be used as thru jacks for an unbalanced split to a personal monitor mixer, redundant recorder, or instrument amplifier Ground-lift switch eliminates hum caused by problematic ground loops Features Route a Laptop/Smartphone to Mic Inputs Connect a Stereo Keyboard to Mic Inputs Converts Line Level to Mic Level Adapts Unbalanced Hi-Z to Balanced Lo-Z 3.5mm TRS, 1/4″ TS & RCA Inputs Balanced 3-Pin XLR Outputs Parallel Inputs Double as Thru Jacks Ground-Lift Switch & -15 dB Pad 48 VDC Phantom Powered Durable Metal Housing with Nylon Bumpers   Specifications Type Active Input Connections 2 x 1/4″ TS (Unbalanced) 1 x 1/8″ / 3.5 mm TRS (Unbalanced) 2 x RCA Coaxial (Unbalanced, One Stereo Pair) Output Connectors 2 x 3-Pin XLR Male (Balanced) 2 x RCA Coaxial Thru (Unbalanced, One Stereo Pair) Pad -15 dB Controls Pad Switch Ground-Lift Switch Input Resistance 50 kOhms Output Impedance 600 Ohms Frequency Response 10 Hz to 40 kHz Power Requirement 48 VDC Phantom Power per Channel Construction Material Enclosure: Metal Bumpers: Nylon Dimensions 3.5 x 1.5 x 6.0″ / 8.9 x 3.8 x 15.2 cm Weight 0.7 lb / 0.3 kg
