A Super-clean Active Direct Box
The AEA TDI is a phantom-powered direct box with an ultra-low-noise JFET buffer driving a squeaky-clean step-down transformer. You also get a Thru jack that's paralleled to the unit's input jack. The TDI's active circuitry delivers top-grade sound quality while minimizing distortion and noise interference and maximizing your signal over long cable runs. Here at Sweetwater, we've found that this direct box tackles passive sources like guitars, basses, and piezo-equipped acoustic-electric instruments with aplomb, and, thanks to its -20dB pad, it can handle speaker-level signals and active instruments with equal assurance. The TDI is able to withstand exceedingly hot levels with zero clipping, and its rugged steel chassis can weather extreme live and studio applications without breaking a sweat. Engineers searching for a near-bulletproof active DI will find the TDI to be the perfect solution in myriad situations.
