ALL-DISCRETE ACTIVE DI WITH PEDALBOARD-FRIENDLY FUNCTIONALITY
Building upon decades of experience creating studio-quality gear for the stage, the Align Active DI is the embodiment of LR Baggs engineering at its highest level and uses the most pristine circuitry we have developed in a DI. LR Baggs' all-discrete design preserves the authenticity of your sound while providing high head-room for a wide range of signals. Equally at home on a pedalboard or stand alone, they are excited to offer a DI with such a high degree of delity and functionality.
TOP FEATURES
A. INSTRUMENT INPUT
The 1/4"input is an unbalanced (mono), all-discrete input. Plugging into the input will activate the Active DI, therefore, unplugging will turn the system off.
B. PAD
The pad switch is used to adjust the XLR output to 0dB(no change), -10dB, or -20dB. Adjust this depending onthe needs of the PA or amplifier.
C. GROUND LIFT
Engage this switch to reduce or eliminate ground loop related noise.
D. PHASE
Press this button to invert the phase. Usually, one phase will provide better sound and feedback resistance. With all acoustic instruments it is important to try both phases each time you set up, because phase is relative to your position on the stage.
E. MUTE
Press the footswitch to mute the signal (Note: the mutewill not affect the 1/4" out when the Thru/Out switch isset to thru). The red LED will light up when the Active DI is muted. Press the footswitch again to un-mute your signal.
F. THRU/OUT
When set to thru, the output completely bypasses all circuitry and sends an unaffected signal to the 1/4" out.When set to out, the signal will be affected by all the controls. The XLR is not a ected by this switch.
G. 1/4" OUTPUT
The 1/4" output is an unbalanced, line level output. You can plug into any amp or device that has a 1/4" input.
H. XLR OUTPUT
The DI out is a balanced XLR output for connecting to a mixing board with an XLR (mic) cable.
G. DC INPUT
The DC power input is designed for a standard 2mm plug commonly used with effects pedals and "floor-box" products. Most power supplies or multi-powerdevices designed for musical products may be used. 9VDC recommended with a 12VDC maximum. Plugging in a power supply will activate the Active DI.
