Description
Passive Multimedia Direct Box
The ProAV1 is a passive direct box specifically designed for audio-video integrators and technicians, featuring a variety of stereo inputs that are summed to mono via a resistive mixer, greatly simplifying signal management.
Features
- Versatile direct box for multimedia applications
- Easy to use, ultra-quiet passive design
- Transformer isolation eliminates hum and buzz
- Handles huge transients without distortion
A necessity for your audio toolkit
The ProAV1 provides you with the ability to connect almost any audio source to a PA system, while automatically summing stereo sources to mono to preserve channels and simplify the audio setup. Inputs are available via 1/4", RCA, 3.5mm stereo, and line-level XLR connections, giving you the ability to easily connect to smartphones, tablets, laptops, CD players, or even a +4dB line level output from a console or recording interface. Transformer isolation helps eliminate noise while maintaining a linear frequency response, and a mono balanced XLR output allows you to feed a recording interface or a PA system.
ProAV1 Applications
- Consumer Audio to PA System
- The ProAV1 is perfect for interfacing consumer audio electronics with pro PA and recording equipment. The dual phone, RCA and 3.5mm inputs on the ProAV1 sum the left and right stereo channels to a mono output.
- Standard DI For Instruments
- The ProAV1 works just like standard direct boxes for passive and active musical instruments like guitars, basses, and keyboards. You can thru-put the signal to an on-stage amp while transformer isolation keeps things quiet.
Specifications
The Radial ProAV1 is a passive direct box designed to handle the extreme dynamics and frequency range that is now common with digital sources. Linear across the audio range, it exhibits low distortion at all frequencies, amazing signal handling and very little phase shift. The result is a clean, natural sounding rendition that is both noise-free and dependable.
