Active Direct Box with Midas Transformer, extended dynamic range and Karlk Teknik Di 10a ghost or battery operations

Based on the legendary heritage of Klark Teknik in terms of high -quality direct injection devices, the DI 10A Pro Di Active offers the same high room for maneuver, the same dynamic response and the same sound clarity as you are in right to wait. The DI 10A is ideal for interfacing keyboards, samples and other electronic musical instruments with mixing consoles. It faithfully reproduces the character of the electrical and acoustic instruments, which makes it possible to capture many more details of musical performance. The DI 10A is powered by a ghost supply +48 V with a 9 V emergency battery, which allows the device to operate automatically in the event of a breakdown or unavailability of the ghost power. Equipped with a switchable input attenuator, the DI 10A adapts easily to the instruments, line signals and even loudspeaker level signals - and thanks to the topology of its very low noise input circuit ( -112 DBU), the DI 10A offers an extended dynamic range, making it the ideal choice for professional audio and multimedia applications.

Compact and robust construction
The DI 10A, ultra-compact, is built to resist the rigors of life on the road thanks to an extrusion of thick and robust aluminum which protects electronics. The robustness of the case is still reinforced by the implementation of solid rubber bumpers.

Midas - The legend of sound quality
Since its creation in the 1970s, Midas has had a long history of innovation and leadership in the world of audio mixing consoles. Used by the most famous tours and installations from around the world, legendary Midas consoles such as XL4 and Heritage H3000 quickly became industry standards.

Midas has acquired an impeccable reputation thanks to its without compromise approach to audio quality and manufacturing, and in particular thanks to its award -winning products which are considered by the sector experts as the best sound conceptions of the industry. By relying on this heritage, the XL8 and PRO series of live mixing systems perpetuate this great tradition of award -winning audio quality.

Klark Teknik is proud to incorporate the transformers designed by Midas for high -quality audio reproduction in live and studio environments. To find out more about the incredible inheritance of Midas, visit their website.

High Headroom Design
A personalized instrumental quality input circuit has been designed for DI 10A using advanced analog design techniques to create the very high input impedance required by passive guitar and bass microphones, while Now the real values ??of the components at a low level to minimize noise. This innovative approach to the design of the circuit produces a very low noise floor, which, combined with a high clipping point, creates an unrivaled dynamic range in a direct case powered by a +48V ghost.

Connectivity and more
The DI 10A Pro Di Active is equipped with neutrik* XLR connectors and high quality TS 1/4 connectors to guarantee the integrity of the signal. Input connectors accept symmetrical and asymmetrical signals on TRS cables, TS or XLR with files, the Jack Thru transmitting an asymmetrical TS 1/4 "signal with local amplifiers/monitors. The output XLR socket sends a symmetrical version of the input signal to your mixer or other treatment device.

Input, power and landing block switches
With a very versatile input pad, the DI 10A easily adapts to signal levels ranging from +10 to +50 DBU. The Earth Lift switch separates the input and exit masses, thus eliminating the earth loops between equipment powered by different electrical networks. The power supply is managed by a dedicated switch with an LED indicator which indicates the current operating condition: supply by active battery = flashing LED; Power supply by extinguished battery = extinguished LED, and active ghost supply = LED constantly lit.

versatility
The DI 10A Pro Di Active offers maximum versatility, a frequency response from 10 Hz to 90 kHz (± 3 dB), Midas transformers designed to measure for optimal signal integrity, and much more - all in a case Ready to be used on the road.
