ULTRA-DI PRO DI800 User Manual 1. Introduction Be it on-stage or in the studio, musicians often look for ways to connect certain signal sources directly to the mixing console. Even though this approach has obvious advantages, there are still some technical hurdles obstructing its implementation. For example, keyboards seldom feature balanced outputs, and guitars can not be directly connected to mixing consoles because of the high impedance of guitar signals.
ULTRA-DI PRO DI800 User Manual 2. Control Elements The BEHRINGER ULTRA-DI PRO features eight identically built channels. The control elements described here refer therefore to all channels. (1) The INPUT connector is used for connecting unbalanced as well as balanced signal sources. (2) Because both INPUT and LINK connectors are wired in parallel, the LINK TRS connector can be used both as an input and as a direct unbalanced output of the INPUT signal.
ULTRA-DI PRO DI800 User Manual 3. Applications 3.3 Converting a microphone signal 3.1 Connecting a guitar/bass signal Average-quality microphones often feature unbalanced, high-impedance outputs. The DI800 lets you wire such mics to the mixing console using long cables without running the danger of inducing hum or interference noise. To this end, the microphone has to be connected to the input of the DI-box, and the DI-box’s output needs to be connected to the mic input on the mixing console.
ULTRA-DI PRO DI800 User Manual 4. Audio Connections ◊ Please make sure that your DI800 is installed and handled only by people with enough technical expertise. Assure that those operating the unit during and after the installation are sufficiently grounded. Otherwise, electrostatic charge may alter the performance of your equipment or damage it permanently.
