Strymon PCH X2 Stereo Active DI Isolator
Product no: 9000-0151-3136 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

The Strymon PCH X2 is a high-quality 2-channel active direct interface/line isolator for those who want to keep their signal really clean. Connect two unbalanced sources (e.g. keys, modeler, drum machine or guitar/bass) and send them balanced via XLR to mixing console or interface. Per channel, a custom transformer provides galvanic isolation against ground loops, with a ground-lift switch for extra hum control. With the 3-position HPF you filter out rumble and via Sum and phase reverse you work quickly in mono and stereo situations.
