smiggell Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 some sound guy who was operating the mixer last gig told me I had to get myself a 'DI box' "oh, ok" I said wondering what the buggery a DI box was!anyway a few you tube vids later I think I know what one is. any advice on which to get I think passive and not active for a keyboard. and presumably i'll need a stereo one?I usually use two jack-jack cables but this issue came up while we used a multicable for the first time and that was all XLR so the DI will also mean I will have XLR output from the unit and I wont have to buy all sorts of xlr-jack adapters. theres a lot of talk about ground loops in the vids and the DI box stopping those, but the WK7600 doesn't have an earth in the plug (central Europe) so it cant be relevant for my keyboard?

Silvano Silva Posted November 12, 2014 Share Posted November 12, 2014 http://www.radialeng.com/prod2.php The Casio WK has a low gain compared to competitors such as Roland, the idea of a DI is great to match impedances between the mixer and the instrument. IThe di above would be an idea for the WK say this because in my band got to open more gain compared to the WK x Roland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
