The 1 meg ohm position delivers the classic impedance found on most active DI boxes, while the 220k ohm setting warms up the tone of magnetic pickups to provide the feel and tone as if your instrument were connected directly to an amplifier. The third setting is an ultra-high 10 meg ohm impedance that is specifically designed for piezo transducers, helping compensate for the harsh or squawky tone that can occur when a piezo is connected to a lower impedance input.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVariable filter to suit any instrument\u003cbr\u003eTo remove unwanted resonance on stage and prevent feedback, the PZ-DI is equipped with a fully-variable low-cut filter that gently rolls off low frequencies. The roll-off point of this filter can be raised or lowered to match the frequency response of your instrument, with a lower point for acoustic bass and a higher setting for violin or banjo. A switchable high-cut filter is also included, which is useful on instruments such as acoustic guitars that incorporate a battery-powered preamp, softening any harshness or high frequency edge for a smoother tone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpecifications:\u003cbr\u003eAudio circuit type: Proprietary analog circuit with low-noise FET op-amp\u003cbr\u003eFrequency response: 20Hz ~ 20kHz\u003cbr\u003eDynamic range: 105dB\u003cbr\u003eGain: +4.6dB\u003cbr\u003eTotal harmonic distortion: 0.02%\u003cbr\u003eInput Impedance: 10M\/1M\/220K-Ohms\u003cbr\u003eOutput Impedance: 200 Ohms - nominal\u003cbr\u003eEquivalent Input Noise: -98dBu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFeatures:\u003cbr\u003eInput pad\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInput Connectors:\u003cbr\u003e1\/4\" hi-Z input\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOutput Connectors:\u003cbr\u003eXLR male output\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGeneral:\u003cbr\u003eConstruction: 48V phantom - proprietary digital switching\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 1.2lb (0.54kg)\u003cbr\u003eShipping size (L x W x D): 127 x 84 x 48mm (5.0\" x 3.3\" x 2\")\u003cbr\u003ePower: 48V phantom - proprietary digital switching\u003cbr\u003eConditions: For use in dry locations only between 5°C and 40°C\u003cbr\u003eWarranty: Radial 3-year, transferable","brand":"Radial Engineering","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53028930945333,"sku":"676101040506","price":349.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0996\/5384\/5301\/files\/PZDI-top.jpg?v=1783945829","url":"https:\/\/musiquediplomate.com\/products\/radial-pz-di-piezo-optimized-di","provider":"Centre de Musique Diplomate","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
