Set Your Signal Up for Success

Sweetwater studio engineers painstakingly scrutinize every part of their signal chains to ensure they're getting the best audio quality possible, and this is why they're raving about the new PCH-X1 active DI box from Strymon! This 1-channel, phantom-powered active DI isolator is equipped with a custom isolated audio transformer that facilitates astonishingly low total harmonic distortion (THD) and a flat frequency response for the most accurate, pristine-sounding signal possible. Strymon goes the extra mile by featuring a built-in 3-position highpass filter (HPF) for cleaning up muddy mixes and cutting low-end distortion alongside an integrated Ground/Lift switch for deftly attenuating 60-cycle hum and unwanted noise. The pursuit of pristine tone is a noble one, and pure tone begins with a powerful signal. Set your signal up for success with a Strymon PCH active DI box!

Islands in the audio stream

The Strymon PCH active DI box features a custom, isolated audio transformer that provides an incredibly flat frequency response and a total THD+Noise of only 0.0007% at 1kHz! This level of professional-grade performance helps prevent unwanted coloration of your audio from the very beginning, ensuring you have the strongest and purest signal possible to work with throughout the line.

Top-tier sonic-shaping

The Strymon PCH-X1 sports a 3-position HPF — a rarity among DI boxes — with selections for 80Hz, 240Hz, or Off. Additionally, the ever-useful Ground/Lift switch helps eliminate noxious 60-cycle hum or buzz from your signal. So, whether you utilize a PCH-X1 for guitar, bass, or keyboard, the Strymon PCH-X1 active DI box promises a powerful, clean, mud-free signal.
