The DI02 is a high end Class A direct box, made for the studio and the stage. It features the big & famous Carnhill© VT24499 transformer [the same you can find in Neve© 51-series console] that gives a massive sound on the balanced output, but also an integrated buffer on the link output for enhanced direct sound through your guitar, bass or keyboard amp.

INSPIRATION

We've taken our inspiration from the sound of vintage hifi equipment from the 80s, at the height of the use of audio transformers, which gave a good, big, loud sound.

The successor to our already acclaimed DI01 is based on the same analog circuitry, but features a new power module for improved sound, and a new sturdy enclosure for years of worry-free touring.
