MATION LINE at 978-988-9665.
The Fishman Dual Parametric D.I. is essentially three devices in one. It is a high-quality
electrically balanced D.I. for use on stage. It is a high input impedance instrument preamp
that can be used with piezo input signals as well as other types of input signals such as
microphones and magnetic pickups. And it is a two-band parametric equalizer in a com-
pact enclosure that is both portable and durable.
It may seem questionable that a 9-volt battery-powered device can provide these capabili-
ties. However, the performance of the Dual Parametric D.I. rivals that of more expensive
studio-grade equipment thanks to Fishman’s exclusive 9-volt doubling technology. This
provides the unit with headroom, low distortion, wide bandwidth and high signal-to-noise
ratio equalling professional high-end requirements.
