About this product

The Sidekick Passive DI Box is designed to connect compatible instruments and audio sources directly to a mixing console through a balanced XLR output. Featuring a 1/4 in. TS input and XLR3M output configuration, it uses an isolation transformer to convert a guitar-level signal to a line-level signal suitable for balanced transmission over long cable runs and audio snakes. Compatible with electric guitars, bass guitars, keyboards, pedal effects, effects processors, and other electronic musical instruments with mono phone outputs, it also includes a switchable instrument/line level throughput and a ground lift switch to support integration with compatible audio systems in live sound, rehearsal, recording, and music production environments.

Features
  • DIRECT INSTRUMENT CONNECTION TO MIXING CONSOLES

    This passive DI box allows compatible instruments and audio sources to connect directly to a mixing console through a balanced XLR output. The design supports direct signal routing for electric guitars, basses, keyboards, and other compatible devices, making it suitable for live sound, recording, rehearsal, and music production environments.

  • BALANCED SIGNAL TRANSMISSION FOR LONG CABLE RUNS

    An integrated isolation transformer converts a guitar-level signal to a line-level signal suitable for balanced transmission. This allows audio signals to travel through balanced interconnects or stage snakes over longer distances, helping musicians and audio technicians route signals between performers and audio systems.

  • COMPATIBLE WITH INSTRUMENTS AND EFFECTS DEVICES

    Designed for use with electric guitars, bass guitars, keyboards, pedal effects, and effects processors equipped with compatible outputs, this DI box provides flexible connectivity for a variety of music applications. The configuration supports integration with mixing consoles and professional audio systems that use XLR inputs.

  • FLEXIBLE SIGNAL ROUTING WITH THROUGHPUT OUTPUT

    A switchable instrument/line level throughput provides additional routing flexibility when integrating compatible amplifiers, instruments, effects units, and audio equipment into an existing signal chain. This allows users to maintain instrument connections while also routing signals to a compatible mixing console.

  • GROUND LIFT SWITCH FOR AUDIO SYSTEM INTEGRATION

    The built-in ground lift switch helps address ground loop issues that can occur when multiple pieces of compatible audio equipment are connected within the same setup. This feature supports smoother integration of instruments, effects devices, mixers, and audio systems in performance and recording environments.
