Ideal for live and studio use, it supports multiple devices via balanced XLR and unbalanced 1/4 inch inputs, offering professional sound quality at an unbeatable price point.

## Description

The MD1 Pro Mono Passive Direct Box provides an easy way to plug a guitar, bass, or keyboard into a mixer or audio interface. The MD1 Pro uses premium circuit components to convert an unbalanced line or instrument signal to a balanced mic-level output with clean, clear signal strength without the need for phantom power or batteries. Housed in Samson’s S-Max rugged 14-gauge steel chassis, the MD1 Pro is built to be durable and reliable for a variety of live and sound recording applications.

## Features

- EASY CONNECTIONS: The MD1 Pro easily takes a 1/4" unbalanced line or instrument level signal source and outputs it as a balanced mic-level XLR signal, allowing for easy connections to mixing consoles or USB audio interfaces.
- PREMIUM CIRCUITRY: Built with Samson’s STLX transformer and Mu-Metal shielding, the MD1 Pro’s premium circuitry provides a clean signal with ultra-low distortion.
- PASSIVE OPERATION: The MD1 Pro’s signal path is entirely passive, requiring no phantom power or batteries to operate.
- BUILT TO LAST: The MD1 Pro is housed in a 14-gauge steel chassis, built to withstand the rigors of the stage and studio alike.
- SIGNAL SWITCHES: The MD1 Pro has a ground-lift to help fight buzz and hum, and a two-stage -15dB/-30dB pad for plugging into low-headroom inputs, both at the flick of a switch.
- PASSIVE THRU OUTPUT: The MD1 Pro’s Thru output sends a dry copy of your signal to a 1/4” output for connecting to pedals or an amplifier, perfect for parallel tracking in studio spaces or using the amp as a monitor on stage.
