After well over 20
years of continuous production
of the original Orchid DI Box
- we have produced a replacement. The well proven electronic
design remains essentially the same
- but is now housed in an extruded
aluminium case.
In view of the long history of this
design, the new model is to be known
as our Classic DI Box.
Housed
in the same sized case as our
popular Micro DI Box - this unit
will generate an accurate broadband
Pink Noise signal - for use as
a test source to equalise PA systems
or for analysis of the audio path.
