The PDI03 is a passive device that takes the signal from an amp‘s speaker output, and converts it to balanced and unbalanced signals suitable for feeding the input of a mixer, recorder, or power amp. The unit is preset for an 8 Ω load, but can be factory modified for 4 or 16 Ω. You can go direct and use your speaker simultaneously if you choose by using the Thru jack, and there are also four additional unfiltered 1/4“ outputs with a separate level control. Two three-way filter switches allow you to adjust high-end response to simulate „American,“ „British,“ or „bright“ speaker types, and adjust low-end response to simulate closed-back 4x12, „neutral,“ or open-back 2x12 speaker cab sounds.
