ambient Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 For on my pedal board. I have some solo gigs coming up, but also for recording. It needs to have an input from my pedals, and I use a lot of pre-recorded messed around with field recordings, so it also needs to take an input from my macbook.

I'm looking at one of these now - [url="http://www.radialeng.com/r2011/proav.php"]http://www.radialeng.com/r2011/proav.php[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andytre Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 You can't go wrong with radial DI's there all I use at work for live and studio applications, sound great and really well built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland Rock Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 +1 for Radial. Top quality Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassBod Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 (edited) There are some new cheaper Radials as well as the JDI - the passive Stage Bug looks like a good cost effective one and is pretty compact. The simple passive Pro DI is great ( I recently saw a lot of them at a very high end recording studio). Edit - it may be easier to use two small passive boxes, and send two lines, rather than trying to get two inputs to balance front of house.

Andytre Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 There is a stage bug that has a mini Jack built in especially for laptops actually! http://www.radialeng.com/stagebugsb5.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would there be any benefit to using 2 separate things ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassBod Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Possibly - very few DI's have two inputs, yet alone any means of adjusting levels. It might be simpler for you to run two signals out of two DI's and balance them up elsewhere. Also, your Engineer may be happier with two separate feeds...or he might be a grumpy sod who thinks you're just making his life more complicated...
