DIs analog simulation study specifically HP
for guitars (the manual indicates that ...)

No power
An attenuator switch: 0 / -15 / -30 dB
A filter switch: Bright / Normal / Mellow
1 input jack
Through an amplifier for use with
One XLR output to connect the mixer

Opportunity to connect after a rack of effects in Mono, after a pedal
or use it with an amp in this configuration log
HP output of the input jack and connect the HP in the output Thru
using the attenuator. With a tube amp does not forget to connect
HP otherwise we slammed the receiver ...
Case not strong and compact, it fits in your pocket!

Well, it's a direct box, everyone connnait its usefulness! its particularity
is to have a good simulation of integrated HP.

Very easy to use, manual in English, but succinct enough.
The attenuator is useful when used with an amp.

Live: Connects directly to the rack of effects pedals or different to the table
mixing so to do without planting microphones and amps! (Save space, etc ...)
also useful in troubleshooting if the amp stopped working normally used in a
concert ...

Recording: allows a direct output with an amp does not have to
having two catches, one direct and one with micro example.
Home for the DI Studio to record his guitars in total silence!

Allows the use of distortion pedals and other directly without going through a preamp,
it opens a lot of new perspectives and research various sound!

The filter simulates:
- HP Bright kind of British
- Normal open a 2x12 or 4x12 enclosed by boosting a little mix to 80/100 Hz
- Mellow 2x10 by setting a 80/100 Hz and 2 / 4 kHz in the mix
Here is an example of the different filters available:
Filter position Bright / Normal / Mellow (http://site.voila.fr/prostudio/palmer/filter.wav)

It can be used after a pedal Disto eliminating "the effect of Bees" met
normally in this configuration.
Example made with a Disto Guyatone Metal Monster and Palmer set to filter position
"Normal" plugged directly into the mixer:
Disto: only / with Palmer (http://site.voila.fr/prostudio/palmer/guyatone.wav)

Another example with a GT2 sounds set to clear:
Its clear single / with Palmer (http://site.voila.fr/prostudio/palmer/acoustsansavec2.wav)

Very good sound, no breath, short exploitable!

This product really impressed by its qualities and its multiple benefits!

Disadvantages:
Obligation to buy 2 to make the stereo ...
Inability to use a guitar as his only input signal is too weak,
is through a pedal, preamp or another.
At first available only overseas, I found mine at Thomman
in against-refunding (for those who do not want to use the Net Leut CB)

Advantages:
Small
No power (not to forget batteries on stage, etc ...)
Settings effective and useful
A lot of potential uses
Interresting price: 88 euros

It's been a long time that a device had not as excited to share its possibilities
varied really finally bring something more and solves many problems
faced by a guitarist in the studio or in concert!
Well, I put it around 10 seems excessive, but well deserved.
