Owners Manual

One of the DI2’s extra features is the combine switch, which
allows you to sum the INPUT and THRU for each channel if
needed. With the COMBINE switch engaged, you can plug
another line input to THRU to sum the INPUT and THRU together
as a single signal.
NOTE: To avoid any annoying sound while connecting the DI2
or when switching from battery to phantom power, please turn
down the volume control of your mixer’s output.
CONNECTING HIGH POWER SIGNALS
The DI2 provides the capability of tapping off the signals from
amplifiers, such as the output of a guitar amplifier. You can also
use DI2 to connect to the speaker output of a consumer stereo
system or boom box.
1. Make sure the PAD switch is pushed in
2. Connect the output of the guitar/bass guitar to the amplifier’s
input
3. Connect the guitar amplifier’s speaker STEREO output to the
DI2 inputs
4. Connect the D2-2’s THRU to the stereo input of the guitar
amplifier’s speaker
5. Connect the DI2’s stereo balanced XLR OUTPUT to the input
of main PA mixer.

CONVERTING THE OUTPUT OF UNBALANCED DEVICES
The DI2 can be very useful in the studio or on stage for
connecting unbalanced devices, especially keyboards and DJ
mixers. The output levels of most keyboards and DJ mixers are
low, so their signals can benefit greatly by connecting their
unbalanced outputs to the DI2. After so, the signal can be sent
cleanly for long distances while benefitting from the low noise
and common mode rejection provided by DI2’s OUTPUT. The
following shows a typical hook-up for a DJ mixer connected to
a stereo stage monitor system and the main PA mixer.
