CleanBOX: 2-way stereo convertor box
ARTcessories - a full line of clever, affordable processing tools for live sound, stage, and studio. The ARTcessories line is designed to deliver solutions for a number of audio needs - like having phantom power, having one or two more mixing channels, testing cables, headphone processing, preamplification for microphones and turntables, and many more real-world applications. With their affordable prices and simple design, the new line of ARTcessories will satisfy the needs of working musicians and sound engineers everywhere.

Problem: You have a stereo output from a CD player (tape deck, VCR, computer sound card or other consumer electronics gear) and you need to connect it to the balanced line inputs of your mixer (EQ or other piece of professional audio equipment). Actually, there are three problems: 1.) Your source has RCA connectors and you need to connect to an XLR input. 2.) Your source signal is unbalanced, but you require a balanced signal where you're plugging into. 3.) The signal levels have to be matched properly.

Solution: Use a CleanBOX! It's RCA-to-XLR channel 1 takes RCA signal, matches the signal levels and then provides a balanced (XLR) output.

Problem: You have the balanced stereo output of a mixer (an EQ or other piece
of pro audio gear) and need to connect it to the inputs of a cassette deck, computer sound card , VCR or another type of consumer electronics unit. The three problems above apply here as well (except your source is balanced, and you require an unbalanced audio signal).

Solution: Use a CleanBOX! Its XLR-to-RCA channel 2 takes a XLR balanced signal, matches the signal levels and then provides an unbalanced (RCA) output.

Problem: You want to mix your voice (and/or instrument) with a CD and record the mix on a cassette deck or computer. Now you need to interconnect three pieces of equipment; two consumer level and one balanced pro audio level (the mixer). You have to go from unbalanced RCA to balanced XLR and from balanced XLR back to unbalanced RCA.

Solution: Simply use both channels on your CleanBOX .

Sweetwater Expert Advice
 
  "A group of DJs and I decided we did not want to be in the DJ booth of the club we promote. It was small and just not in the right place. We moved the gear near the dance floor but came across a problem; we needed to jack in to the main PA somehow. No one had 30-foot RCA cables but we did have 20-foot XLR cables and 10-foot RCAs. We stretched the cables, ran them in to the Clean Box, set the levels, and all was good. This is a life saver for the live performer or DJ."
Carson McClain
