SWAMP DB-1 Passive Direct Injection Box - DI Box
An incredible DI, the SWAMP DB-1 Passive Direct Box a professional solution for transforming high-impedance, unbalanced instrument outputs to low-impedance, balanced inputs, such as plugging instruments into a mic preamp on a mixer. For stage and studio.
When to use a DI?
A DI box basically turns an "instrument" signal into a "mic" signal. It is used when you have an unbalanced, high impedance instrument, like a guitar or keyboard, and want to plug it into balanced XLR microphone input, such as on a mixing desk / PA system. Vital for stage performers that are required to plug into balanced XLR multicore stage boxes.
Connect Instruments to a Mixer
The SWAMP DB-1 is one of the most useful and versatile tools available indispensable in enabling easy interfacing and connection between various audio gear in numerous applications.This unit is used when you have an unbalanced, high impedance instrument, like a guitar or keyboard, and want to plug it into a mic preamp on a mixer for more headroom. Comes with an attenuation switch boasting two cut settings of 20dB and 40dB. Also features an earth lift input.
Simple to Use
DI boxes can be a little confusing at first, however this DI will automatically provide a solution for you easily. Simply plug your instrument into the input via a 1/4" jack cable, and connect a mic cable from the XLR into your desired mixer channel preamp, or a powered speaker. Use the PARA Output to send the clean signal to a tuner or amplifier etc. Use the Signal Attenuation switch to adjust your signal according to your instrument. Basically you can use:
0dB setting for electric guitar, basses and leyboards; -20dB setting for professional audio equipment, and; -40dB setting for guitar power amps. Use the Ground Switch to resolve Hum or noise issues.

- Single channel passive direct box

Seriously amazing for the price
By: Daphne McEldowney on 23 November 2023This is comparable with Radial DIs that cost 10x what this one does. Bought on a whim to try it out, after reading the other reviews, and was not disappointed. Will definitely be buying a few more!

Swamp DB-1
By: Paul Watters on 23 March 2023The Swamp DB-1 works well with my Classical Electric Guitar. I turn up the volume of the Fishman pickup to maximum and plug into the XLR input on whichever PA I am using. There is no noise and the the output is such that the channel is neither over or under driven. If I am using an active, battery powered guitar pickup I will first try using the Swamp DB-1 when sorting out the guitar sound before gigging.

SWAMP DB-1 Passive Direct Injection Box - DI Box
By: Steve Knight on 29 March 2017What a great little piece of kit this is. Value for money in spades. It cleaned up my noisy computer output and my hissy TC Voiceworks preamp. Comes with an attenuation switch boasting two cut settings of 20 and 40 dB. Great for keys and basses straight into the desk. Also features an earth lift input that works a treat. Highly recommended at such a good price. Five stars for SWAMP!

By: Walter Pearce on 18 June 2015I've bought around a dozen of these DI boxes over the last couple of years. If you are looking for a budget DI that performs like a professional unit you can't go past this one. Amazing quality for the price!

By: Patrick on 9 May 2015All you need in a DI at a price that's hard to beat. I'm using this in a bass guitar rack. Sound quality seems fine, though I don't have anything really high-end to compare it to, and high frequency definition isn't so critical for bass guitar. There are also some mounting screw holes that can just be seen in the photographs that were useful for mounting it inside the rack box.

By: Rob Mac on 16 March 2014Works well, fairly solid build, can't get a DI much cheaper than this and they actually sound better and cleaner than other (nonpassive) budget DIs I've tried.
