Warm Audio WA-DI-P Passive Direct Box
Whether you play acoustic-electric guitar, active bass, or keyboards, you’ll need a direct box that won’t diminish your instrument’s tone when recording or plugging into the board. Using premium components like a Cinemag transformer and leveraging elite build quality, the Warm Audio WA-DI-P Passive Direct Box is more than just a basic DI. There is no specific rule on when to use active vs. passive DIs, but a good guide is to use passive direct boxes with active sources like guitars and basses with active pickups. If you’re looking for a professional, durable DI, the Passive Direct Box from Warm Audio delivers premium features that help solve many audio issues live and in studio.
Intuitive, full-featured inputs and controls
Plug in your guitar, bass, keyboard, or other high-impedance instruments on the unit’s front panel. The Thru jack sits beside it, for easy access to run a line out to your amp, and the converted signal exits the unit via a sturdy XLR jack on the rear panel. The front-panel switches include Phase, Ground Lift, and Amp Out. On the back panel, you can choose to engage the variable pad to optimize the input signal for best performance.
