zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us.
Was practicing/rehearsing without it but hooked
it up to this Direct Box for the actual
presentaion and quality of sound was a
tremendous improvement and noticeable change.
I used it to send my output guitar synth
to the main mixer and the sound came across
beautifully clear. Am going to power it with
a phantom unit to save battery, etc.
