The DB-1 is one of the most useful and
versatile tools available — indispensable
in enabling easy interfacing and
connection between various audio gear in
numerous applications.
• Perfect for all live sound permanent
installations, club, church and practice PA
systems, monitor systems, home and project
recording studios, karaoke and DJ sound systems
• Enables the connection of any unbalanced audio source signal (such as from an electric instrument, keyboard—
even from an amp speaker output) to any mic level balanced input (such as that of a mixer).
• Parallel Output allows simultaneous connection to 2 separate inputs (such as to an amp and mixer)
• Translates high-impedance instrument outputs into low-impedance balanced signals or balanced low-impedance
signals into unbalanced outputs
• Converts unba10dB DJ mixer signals to balanced mic level signals, enabling both easier interfacing
with consoles and longer cable runs
• Enables multiple keyboard setups plugged into an instrument amp to be directly input to a console mixer by
connecting the speaker outputs of the amp to the console input through the DB-1, thus eliminating the need for a
direct box on each keyboard.
• 3-position input attenuation switch (0dB, -20dB, -40dB) facilitates proper output signal levels for optimum level
matching to connected equipment
• Switchable ground lift eliminates ground loop hum problems
• Rugged, roadworthy all-steel construction for years of continuous reliability
