I am a DJ and have a bunch of There are a few controllers with XLR outs, but they usually only belong to my bigger ones. Using small controllers, which only have RCA outputs, is often the best answer for me when I need to provide music but am placed in confined areas. I still need to patch into a professional PA system, so I need a My experience with this has been positive. Having the ability to feed it an 1/8" cable is also nice for the times when I need to output a direct signal from my iPad, phone, When I get a single XLR cable that I can feed it into, I want to disable the Stereo button, so I can have both channels emitted, not just one. The XLR leads connect to the xlr on this DI, which means I can send an apple iPhone signal through 100' of XLR cables.
This signal chain was made up of a Mac mini 1/8-inch audio jack out and a 1/8-inch audio jack in A Yamaha mixer is equal to The KRK studio monitors are powered by KRK. I had an annoying level of static, noise and hiss using this configuration. A major problem occurred when the Mac went to sleep as the static and noise were extremely My speakers were getting damaged from the volume, which I thought might damage them. There was a noticeable difference in the quality of audio between the Mac's audio out and the Yamaha mixer after I installed the Whirlwind pcDI. It was a pleasure to hear the Mac sound so clean again without the outgoing hiss or other noises. While I still had a great deal of noise and hiss when the Mac went into sleep mode, it was not quite as awful as it was In the meantime, I have purchased an Apogee Quartet, and I now connect my studio monitors directly to the outputs. It is no longer necessary to use the built-in audio out of the Mac. There is not a single sound made by the Quartet. It is now impossible for the Mac to take a nap when there is This is an excellent program that I highly recommend. A good job is done with it. As well as being made in the US, it seems to be very well designed and well constructed.
Since over a decade, Whirlwind has been making amazing DI boxes. I have been setting it up for a makeshift drive in the theater and it has worked perfectly. I no longer got any noise coming from the laptop, since this DI box eliminated it all once it entered the.
I think this is a great idea. The connection between the iMac's audio and my PreSonus StudioLive Soundboard is accomplished with this product. The construction of the product is solid, and it adds a protective layer between your computer and soundboard. If you don't have a direct box, you do not need to connect your computer directly. There is a possibility that someone might accidentally engage phantom power on your computer input and cause damage to your computer. Therefore, this direct box is an effective way to keep your hardware safe. The system includes a variety of connection inputs and a ground lift, too. Although this model is a little expensive, it has a high quality, which makes it worth it. I gave it four stars because of the price. The price you pay is what you get.
The one I purchased was sold on Amazon in the past. My next thought was to get another one from Amazon since I thought I needed it again. The reason I bought it is still a mystery to me. The program is not used by me. It's what I plan to use to clean up sound that comes from a MacBook and then send it to a mixer. I guess I can live with that. It will be in my gig bag when I perform at some future event.
Once you have this box, you will see how many uses it has! With it, I can now perform without a problem. It works great with any computer, ipad, iphone, or any other device with RCA outputs that has an XLR output set up so that it feeds an XLR feed into With this, you can easily use backing tracks, synths designed for the iPad or iPhone, etc. for live performance. In my case, I use this to run my iPhone while I use Sunrizer synth in conjunction with a Keith McMillan 12 Step foot pedal. With this technique, I am able to run terrific backing pads without using any I love it!.
While this device is best suited for a variety of devices for small venues, it’s still best to use the correct unit for the right situation.
I haven't had to use it yet, but we do keep it on hand The best devices are those used by professionals.
