XDirect : Excellent live product for the price

9 years ago

Used on a stage/live environment, it's difficult to fault these. They are clearly labelled, and robustly constructed; they will take a fair few kicks and bumps. Input and output XLRs lock nicely.

Additions of a phase toggle and a high-pass filter are nice touches, particularly for the price; as is each DI coming with a 9v PP3 in the box! I run my DIs from phantom power so the batteries have gone straight in the 'spare-for-the-next-guitarist-with-a-problem' box, which is always handy.

The sound is certainly uncoloured enough not to be noticeable in a live mix.

Would definitely buy again at this price.
