News
The UltraSound DI Plus is a very powerful tool for any musician. This is not only a DI but a full featured preamp designed after UltraSound's famous AG-series amps. Whether at a local open mic night or at a major concert venue, you will be able to dial in the clear natural acoustic sound that our amplifiers are known for, and route it to the stage PA through a balanced XLR output. Sound engineers will appreciate the versatile controls and the optional 48-volt phantom power operation. Therefore, no more wall warts or batteries if your mixer has phantom power. (Originally called ULTRA PDI.)

UltraSound DI Plus Preamp Direct Box Reviews

1 Person rated this product :
           10 out of 10
           10 out of 10
"Simply the Best for Less $$$$"
Feature:
XLR out, Line out, guitar out (for a tuner), EFX loop, phantom power capable, it's got it all.

Quality:
Heavy steel case. Looks great. Should last forever.

Value:
No Preamp - DI comes close to this price point for the features...

Desirability:
It really is a God-send to acoustic guitarists who employ K&K pickups. Of course it works with any piezo pickup and the shape control helps sqaush the quack of UST pickups.

Sound:
Actually, I have the AG-30 amp which includes this DI. If you check out the Ultrasound site, they describe the DI as an AG-30 without the amp and speaker. If you run K&K pickups the 1Meg Ohm input of this DI is a perfect fit.

Ease of Use:
Very easy and intuitive to use. The shape control takes some experimenting but overall it is simple to use.

Support:
I have emailed Ultrasound at least a dozen times and they are always responsive and detailed in their answers.

Overall:
Even though I have an AG-30, from which this circuit was taken, I am ordering the DI to have the tone control/shaping ability that fits in my guitar case. However, the AG-30 is a great deal. For $70 more than the DI, it has the DI plus an amp and speaker that work great in their own right and can serve as a stage monitor if you're connecting to a PA.
