Samson's MD1 Mono Passive Direct Box combines premium sound circuitry with durable, roadworthy construction, providing high-quality signal connection solutions for a variety of live sound and recording applications. The MD1 allows clean, balanced lines to be sent from an unbalanced line or instrument signal to a microphone level balanced input.

Custom STL Transformer
The MD1 features Samson's STL transformer that delivers an extended, flat frequency response with ultra-low distortion. The MD1's balanced output provides a clean signal that is less susceptible to noise than an unbalanced line, allowing for longer cable runs.

Thru Jack
The MD1's Thru jack enables you to tap off the signal from the input and pass the signal to an amplifier or monitor without affecting the original audio. This can eliminate the need for miking guitar amplifiers, which depending on your application may be preferable, especially as more musicians are using in-ear monitors.

Roadworthy Construction
Housed in a 14-guage noise-reducing steel chassis, the MD1 is built to withstand the abuse of the most demanding live tours. Its rigid outer shell protects all the MD1's internal connections, switches and solder joints from failure, ensuring quiet, reliable performance.

I left the store feeling good about my purchase

Sales person was very helpful and knowledgeable. He explained the difference between two different items and what would be set for my application.

Good D.I. box for the budget minded.

I play electronic drums and needed something to route the drums into the sound system. I went to the store and bought this D.I. box. It helped make the performance. And I didn't have to spend a lot of money.

Affordable and durable!

The Samson DI box is a super well-built unit. The XLR plug holds a cable really well and it's durable enough to be a workhorse DI for any audio engineer. These boxes are a great value and a must have for any live sound technician! And if you're a keyboard player and show up with your own DI box the sound guy will love you for it.

Bought this as a spare.

Bought this as a spare. Hooked it up in the studio and was pleasantly surprised. It does exactly as it is supposed to do. The thing is built like a tank. Heavier than all my more expensive DI's. I would definitely buy this product again. And, will probably buy a few more.

Nice box!

This is a sweet little direct box. Passive so you don't have to worry about batteries or power adapters. Just plug right in and you are ready to go! Has a ground switch, an XLR out and 1/4" for many applications! This is an awesome box.
