Ideal for any studio or stage, the DB100 Passive DI from On-Stage converts unbalanced, line-level signals from consumer audio sources to balanced, mic-level outputs that can be fed into high-powered amps, stage snakes, PA systems, mixers, interfaces, and preamps. The 3.5mm stereo TRS plug on the input end works with any audio source, such as laptops or digital music players and is attached to a 10' cable for easily reaching the audio source, while the other end sports a 3-pin male XLR connector, which converts the signal to mono.

The DB100 effectively eliminates most hum and noise caused by ground or electrical loops thanks to its transformer-based design and the handy ground-lift switch. A volume knob allows for additional adjustment of the output level between the audio source and the destination. This electrically isolated, passive DI requires no input power to operate and the durable metal enclosure keeps it safe during rigorous stage use.

A: The Peavey USB-P - USB "Direct Box" for Outputting Computer Audio to PA System is designed to convert a computer's digital audio output to analog signal and is powered via its USB connection to the computer. The USB-P would not work to convert signal in a similar manner with a device that is sending signal into a computer over USB.

Q: 10. Can this be used to mix multiple headphone outputs into one headphone output or is this only intended for line in/out?

A: Although the Rolls MX41B could technically be used for headphone signals, the impedance of its inputs & outputs is not the same as the typical impedance range of headphones. This may lead to undesirable results and lower audio quality.
