EWI PDI-100 PARA ACOUSTIC DI Box
This is a medium grade professional application Para Acoustic Active DI, which will work well on instruments with passive pickups or active pickups.
The construction is reasonably rugged and the components are well suited for the application yielding results that are typically acceptable for all but the most discerning artists.
The on-board tone and volume controls give the operator a lot of choices in shaping their sound prior to sending the signal to the mix console. This allows an artist to use this device in-place of or in addition to a traditional stage amp for their instrument. This is an excellent choice for IEM bands, or bands that like to keep their stage volume low.
This item is typically used to split the instrument signal going to a stage amp so a feed can be sent also to the mix board, or be used as a stand-alone instrument pre-amp. It is equipped with a ¼” jack for input, a 1/4" jack for output to a stage amp, one XLR jack for the send to the board and a TRS jack for inserting an FX device.Since this is an active D.I. box, it needs to be powered which can be done either with Phantom Power from the mix board, or with the supplied internal 9v battery. The battery is fairly easy to change by removing one screw in the bottom of the case.

| Vacuum Tube Mic Preamp. 12AX7 Vacuum Tube. +48V Phantom Power, 20dB Pad.
This premium tube mic/line preamp features an integrated limiter for studio,
live and hard disk recording applications. It features a carefully-selected
12AX7 vacuum tube with Behringer's UTC technology for exceptional warmth
and lowest noise. Using the MIC100 is a great way to eliminate the "dull"
sound of standard digital recorders & sound cards. Also, it perfectly
complements studio-grade condenser mics. When used as a high-end DI-box,
it ensures outstanding signal integrity. Features also include a phase reverse
switch, +48 V phantom power, a 20 dB pad, and balanced I/O.
The heart of the Tube Untragain is an extremely low-noise microphone preamp
circuitry that uses discrete components and produces a highly trans-parent
sound. In combination with Behringer's tube technology, the operational amplifiers
4580 and a sophisticated circuit topology, the Tube Untragain yields excellent
noise and distortion properties. The innovative UTC circuitry that has been developed
by our engineering team offers an abundance of sound-shaping possibilities.
Absolute musicality was Behringer's major goal when we designed the Tube
Untragain. The result is a device that, thanks to our tube circuitry, lends an
incredible punch to percussion instruments. On the other hand, instruments
that are rich in upper harmonics will receive more transparency. The sound
will be warm, detailed and brilliant.

Features Superlative sound Studio quality mic preamp Total control - Input Gain, EQ contour, Output Gain, Overload indicator Multiple output connectors XLR/jack combo input Switchable 48 V DC Phantom Power for condenser Mics Compact, computer friendly package Needs no external power supply ARX is proud to introduce the e-pre - the ultimate microphone pre-amp for hard disk recording, designed by audio professionals, not computer engineers. The all-new e-pre is so much a part of your system that it fits right into a spare 5?" slot in your computer case! It's the perfect tool for all your day-to-day recording requirements. No equipment racks to plug in, no masses of cabling to connect - the e-pre is ready and waiting when you need it. The e-pre is a studio quality microphone pre-amp using the same internal components as high end mixing consoles, built into a compact, computer friendly package. It has controls for: Input Gain - fully variable from 10dB through to 60dB to suit all types of microphones, plus switchable 48 V Phantom Power to enable condenser microphones to deliver their best. A Contour control for EQ sweetening, providing fast, easy access to a whole range of useful EQ curves Output level control - fully variable to match the e-pre's output to the input of the sound card. From -10dB consumer cards through to +4dB for professional sound cards, the e-pre can handle it. Multiple output connectors match up with any kind of sound card, including mini jacks, standard jack, RCA (phono) plugs, and even a connector to link to the internal CD ROM audio input of your sound card (if fitted). We've even fitted a 12 VDC input connector on the rear to enable the e-pre to run from an external power supply if required (eg for use with notebook computers or stand-alone use).
Any way you look at it, the e-pre by ARX is the total professional microphone pre-amp for all your hard disk recording needs

The PRE-73 Mk2 is the first one-channel low-cost preamp on the market that is using a fully discrete signal path with three separate transformers for the balanced mic input, the line input and the output.
The circuit is very similar to the classical preamp section of the Neve 1073 pre/eq module with a corresponding sound character that is warm, punchy, sweet and musical.
This classical sound has been heard on countless recordings through the years and it is a versatile sound that works very well on most sound sources and in most genres.
The PRE-73 Mk2 has a maximum gain of 80 dB on the mic input and the gain range on the Line input is -20 to + 10 dB. There is also a high-impedance instrument input.
The PRE-73 Mk2 is perfect for almost any signal source, no matter if it's a microphone with a high or low sensitivity (like a passive ribbon mic), a syntheziser or sound module or an electric guitar or bass.
The input impedance of the microphone input can be switched between 300 and 1200 ohms, which makes it possible to affect the tone of most microphones. There is also phase switch and an simple 4-step LED signal level meter.
The output level control makes it possible to make fine gain adjustments and also to overload the main gain stage for more character and then lower the signal to a suitable level before the output stage.
The Mk2 update consists of:
- An unbalanced insert jack (nominal level about 18 dBu) added on the back panel for inserting units like the coming GAP EQ-73, a three band eq.
- LED meter levels adjusted.
- 600 Ohm termination resistor and jumper added to power supply board (accessible from the inside of the unit).
- Revised Gain switch, turning the know clockwise now increase the gain.
- Reduced noise at high gains by a change to the power supply grounding scheme. |
