This manual describes the SINE DI 4/DI 8 DI boxes.
SINE DI 4 Connections and controls The front panel: 1. INPUT: Input socket (1/4" mono jack) 2. LINK-OUT: Output for direct signal feed-through 3. -20 dB attenuation 4. -40 dB attenuation (only in conjunction with –20 dB attenuation) 5. GROUND-LIFT: Ground isolation of the signal 6. 12 V AC: AC power The rear panel: 7. POWER: Power switch 8. 12 V AC: AC power 9. OUTPUT: Balanced output, XLR 10.
Function The SINE DI 4 rack system is an active direct injection box that converts unbalanced line signals to balanced signals. Apply an unbalanced line signal to the input on the front or rear panel to get a balanced signal at the XLR output. The signal is also fed through unchanged to the Link-Out socket. You can also attenuate the signal by –20 dB or –40 dB. And if you're being annoyed by hum pickup, use the ground lift switch to fully isolate the input and output signals from one another.
SINE DI 8 Connections and controls The front panel: 1. INPUT: Input socket (1/4" mono jack) 2. -20 dB attenuation 3. GROUND-LIFT: Ground isolation of the signal The rear panel: 4. OUTPUT: Balanced output, XLR 5.
Function The SINE DI 8 rack system is a passive direct injection box which does not require a dedicated power supply. The primary application of the SINE DI 8 is the isolation of input and output signals (synthesizers, mixers, etc.). This is partly realized by interrupting the ground connection of the signal that frequently causes hum pickup. For example, to isolate the connection between a synthesizer and mixer, connect the synthesizer to one of the 8 inputs of the DI 8.
