« Honest without an ID ... »
Published on 03/12/12 at 03:54This is a DI, so there is a transformer, the same as in the DI100 the same manufacturer. To his sister added a 4x12 analog simulation of HP, and a nice box a red anodized aluminum.
UTILIZATION
I use this ID as follows: the speaker output of my tube amp 4W is connected to the input of the DI, the link turns out to be in the HP is in a resistance of 25W 16Ohms (loadbox, but cheaper!). In 4W, both CSA (attenuation) are pressed. The balanced output is directly connected to my preamp Roland Quad-Capture.
SOUND QUALITY
The sound is clear on most of the spectrum, apart from a slump and sub bass. The concern is relative because easily corrected with a slight EQ (of around 4-5dB more about the bass in low-shelve) that goes well (which proves that the frequencies are there, but farther away than the other ).
The simulation HP, I've never been a fan of HP simus analog, although neutral nor convincing. Compared to a convolution simulation, for sure, it is worth nothing. I guess in troubleshooting on a resume direct sound, it can do a clean sound.
OVERALL OPINION
The design is robust and downright fun. The box is the most beautiful effect in a home studio !
It does its job with a slight weakness in the bass. I compared with SCV, which colors the sound quite a bit (but in a good way), it is very decent, especially considering the price. In short, I am very satisfied with this ID, although I might have to settle for the DI100 (gray).
