    As with all Radial products, every attempt has been made to make the PRO DI ‘plug & play’ easy-to-use. However, it is still a good idea to read this manual thoroughly to ensure you take full advantage of all the features that are built-in, so that the results you get are the very best possible.
  • Page 3: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION The Radial PRO DI is a passive direct box. This means that unlike active direct boxes that either require a battery or power of some sort to make them work, your PRO DI does not need any power at all. It is ‘plug & play’ easy-to-use.
  • Page 4: Features

    FEATURE SET The Radial PRO DI is a very simple yet effective device. It features a ¼” input connector that connects to the source or instrument, a ¼” thru-put connector that connects the instrument to the amplifier and finally, a low impedance balanced XLR output connector that provides a direct and transformer-isolated signal to the mixer.
  • Page 5: Making Connections

    MAKING CONNECTIONS Using the Radial PRO DI is easy. Before connecting, start by making sure all volume levels are set to zero and the audio system is turned off. This will avoid any loud pops in your sound system that could cause system damage. The PRO DI does not require any power and it will ignore the phantom power from your mixer, if it is turned on.
  • Page 6: Re-Amping With The Pro Di

    It’s simple to do: plug your electric guitar into the PRO DI and send the thru-put to your guitar amplifier. Connect the bal- anced output on the PRO DI directly to your recording system and record a clean guitar track this way. Put a mic in front of your guitar amp as usual and record it to another track at the same time.

    Can I use a piezo pickup with the PRO DI? If your piezo equipped instrument has it's own pre-amp and battery you can use the PRO DI with excellent results. If your piezo equipped instrument does not have a pre-amp then you really need to have a higher input impedance to get the most out of a piezo without a pre-amp.
