Great DI box for the cash

T0mmas 06.02.2022

I bought one of these for recording bass and guitars in my home studio. I was told if I was looking for quality I shouldn't be paying attention to products at this price tag. However, I experienced differently.

The DI box is built with quality. It got hard metal housing, it is heavy, the switches are hard/stiff which I find really nice, so they won't accidently shifts on contact with external factors, if thats the case. I can't say anything for the battery source because I'm running it on phantom power from day one. The signal is clear. No hums, no noise, no nothing. So far I'm really happy with this product - again, with really low price tag in mind!

Totally recommending it!

BEST price/performance ratio!

Hi customer! The LD Systems LDI 02 is "inspired" by the BSS AR-133 active-DI-Box. The BSS is to expensive for me in my little home studio. So i tried some other products:

- this one
- Palmer PAN 02
- Behringer Ultra-DI
- ART XDirect

The Palmer PAN 02 and the LDI 02 sounds equal, the ART and the Behringer similiar. I prefer the LDI 02, because of the price. The switches are really stable and are noiseless while switching. Furthermore the LDI02 has enough own weight to stay on its position while laying on my desk! The connectors are from good quality as well. In comparison with the ART and Behringer the feel, switches and the manufaction wins at all!

The battery box can be opened and closed without tools. Good for the live-situation without 48V-phantom-power-mixer. A status LED is telling you, whether the power came from the battery (LED is flashing) or from phantom-power (LED on).

Nice sounding (minimal colouration) and in general an uncomplicated product!

Decent Value for Money

ShadowSound 09.01.2022

Picked up a few after using a couple in a venue a few years back. They're solid little workhorses and the build quality is very reasonable for the money. All four I bought are still functional, although a couple of foot screws have shaken loose over the years.

Stevige, goede DI

Seshet the Mad 04.07.2019

Deze DI lijkt wel heel veel op een niet-nader genoemde andere DI die zowat de industriestandaard is. Functioneert ook net hetzelfde. Enige verschil is de kleur en vooral de prijs.

20 db pad, earth lift en link zijn 3 factoren die deze DI zo goed maken ten opzichte van andere, simpelere DI's binnen dezelfde prijsklasse.

Ik heb 2 van deze LDI 02 en ik gebruik ze zowel in de studio als live, kapot zal je ze niet krijgen.

Heel veel audio interfaces hebben een (dedicated) instrumenten jack input. Dat maakt volgens sommigen een DI overbodig bij het direct opnemen van bv elektrische gitaar. Niets is echter minder waar: een actieve DI zoals deze, wanneer voorzien van +48 volt phantom power, is echt een meerwaarde voor je signaal.

Beestig ding voor heel weinig geld!
