DI active phantom powered or battery 9V. Ground lift, guitar simulator HP (4x12 ha, ha), two-20db pad cumulative, direct output. It seems that we can send an output of 3000w amp. The cow!
Unable to stack or to combine. The case is strong.

UTILIZATION

When we know the role of DI, there are no worries. The record is there to highlight the technical aspects and types of possible connections, including an insert between a guitar amp and HP to move a microphone.
You want the simulation, you press the button. You shall not want, you press it.

SOUND QUALITY

DI used without the simulation is more than correct and none of the users I plugged (including me) did find bad.
I use it mainly for my preamp output congigurations guitar with the simulation engaged and I'm very satisfied. The color of the simulation is clean, and the sound is quite organic.
on the other hand, it blows a little. We must send a line level and does not engage the pads to keep an acceptable signal to noise ratio.
In blind-blind test, my guinea pigs are in agreement with me that it sounds better than the Red Box and catch microphone in rooms with sound doubtful.
Live is better than an old sm57 who turned 15 years old loose in a bag, and whose investment is an art that is not accessible to everyone. No repisse or feedback, and we can get the sound at home, we find almost everywhere.
I have not tried the Palmer (I long)

OVERALL OPINION

DI without good story and very correct speaker simulation. Obviously, it's worse than taking real studio with a good mic and a good sound engineer, but it will deceive many people. And not being a top musician and that some benefits are at the limit of DIY, I restarted with for not having any surprises. All those I have suggested that solutions were also satisfied with the test.
Too bad it's blowing a little (but still far less than most guitar amps) with the simulation running.
At this price, I necessarily valid. I have two.
