USB DI HP [USB-4] NEW!
In response to many requests from users of our original USB DI who have been using it for specific applications, ARX is excited to present the new ARX USB DI-HP—everything that the original USB DI was, with the addition of a headphone output with its own level control. It is still a true plug and play 24-bit digital to analog pro audio interface, removing the need to use any existing sound card outputs, but now its output level can be monitored quietly and accurately. Naturally, it still features full transformer balanced output isolation to eliminate earth loops/ground hum and other extraneous interaction noise and distortion.
The addition of the headphone output and control allows easy personal monitoring of the audio signal passing through the USB DI-HP without the need for monitor loudspeakers. See SPECS Here

Active Direct Boxes and Rack Units
DI Plus RC Single Channel Active Direct Box With NiMH batter
Working with the pedigree of our industry-standard DI Plus and DI Plus 2 Direct Boxes, we've redesigned and updated our circuitry and packaging, and the end result is our new DI Plus RC Direct Box.
We've powered these new products with internal long-life NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) rechargeable. NiMH batteries exhibit no memory effect and a long life recharge cycle.
As a manufacturer, ARX is well aware of the problems of disposing of batteries in an environmentally friendly way so we've powered the DI Plus2 RC with an internal long-life NiMH rechargeable battery that can be charged off either the phantom power on the mic line or via the 12V DC input, removing battery "throw-away" as an issue.
The new DI Plus RC features a low noise high impedance input buffer with switchable 20 dB Pad, and a low distortion high current output stage able to drive the longest cable runs. It represents another major step forward in active Direct Boxes. Packaged in a single channel stand-alone format, the DI Plus RC represents a fresh look at active D.I. concepts.
Precision Engineered
Ultra-quiet, ultra-clean circuitry delivers maximum headroom whatever the signal. Premium grade components, plus an all-steel chassis give excellent hum and noise specifications and superb audio quality in a tough, roadworthy package.
Managing Levels
The DI Plus RC features a normal gain high impedance unbalanced input on the front panel, running to a balanced XLR output on the rear. There is also a separate -40 dB speaker level input for signal coming from the external (auxiliary) speaker output of an amplifier. A global Pad switch drops both the normal input and the speaker input by a further 20 dB, making it suitable for all applications, from the softest keyboard to the hottest broadcast levels. Whether you're a studio or live sound engineer, installation contractor, or broadcast engineer, you want all the dynamics and clarity of the original sound source transferred to the mixing console. The ARX DI Plus RC provides a rugged, no-compromise solution to all direct injection and signal balancing requirements.
Automatic Phantom Switching
The DI Plus RC will automatically switch itself to the console's own phantom power, if available, and an LED will indicate this mode. Turn the phantom power off and it will instantly revert back to battery mode.
Rugged All-Steel Case
A lot of Direct Boxes are fitted into brittle cast alloy cases. Not this one! The tough all-steel inner and outer chassis of the DI Plus RC provide excellent RF/EMF shielding while making it a sturdy, heavy-duty unit that is hard to dislodge, and hard to leave behind.

Interfaces Unlimited
MP3 players, Tape/cassette/DVD/CD decks, audio for video, drum machines, synthesizers, bass guitars, computers; at some stage all these need linking up to Balanced inputs, whether the application is live sound, studio, or broadcast.
A Pro Audio Toolbox
This unique and flexible audio toolbox allows six independent unbalanced audio sources to easily and quietly interface with balanced pro audio systems, either to individual channels or summed down to one master output.
But That's Not All
By pressing a single switch on the rear panel the DI-6SM will change modes from 6 Direct Boxes plus mixer to being a 6-way splitter (mic/line distribution amplifier). Now it will split an incoming microphone or line signal to 6 individual outputs or zones, with an XLR loop out to send the microphone output to a mixing desk as well. Switchable phantom power and gain trim for the mic input completes this new package
On the front panel, each channel has 2 IN/OUT jacks, a level control from infinity (off) through 0 dB to +15 dB gain, and a clip indicator LED.
The master section has a master volume control and status LEDs indicating whether the unit is in DI+Mixer or in splitter mode. For your convenience, there is also a balanced jack mix output on the front panel, in parallel with the balanced XLR Mix output on the rear panel.
Balanced Outputs
On the rear, each channel has an XLR Balanced output, with associated Ground lift switch and status LED, to isolate the chassis and electronic grounds.
The master section has a balanced XLR output on the rear and a balanced jack output on the front panel. In addition, there is a Balanced XLR input with a switch to put the unit in either DI+Mixer or into Splitter mode. In Splitter mode, there is a switch to toggle between Microphone and Line level input, as well as a phantom power switch and a loop output for a microphone signal to go to a mixing desk as well.
Universal AC Power
AC power range is a universal 100 to 120V or 220 to 240V AC and is connected to the unit via a removable power lead and standard three-pin IEC connector, with built-in fuse and voltage change switch.
AV DI [AVDI]
Stereo AudioVisual Active Direct Box, with dual RCA or stereo mini jack input and dual XLR outputs. The AV DI is ideal for interfacing computer sound cards with pro sound systems. Heavy-duty, all-steel chassis, –20 dB Pad switch, plus phantom or 12–15V DC power options. Permanent soft audio ground network prevents ground loops, providing pristine audio quality. Ideal for interfacing any consumer stereo audio signal (especially notebook computer sound cards) with the balanced inputs of professional sound systems. Available in Dual Channel format only. Requires phantom or DC power.
