Description
- With two transformer coupled outputs, the 5017 has separate line outputs for the DI/Blend and Mic signals when the blend control is set to fully DI. The mic output is always independent.
- Much could be written about this feature, suffice to say, that it gives a subtle option to enhance sound quality in the direction of vintage modules. The silk button reduces negative feedback and adjusts the frequency spectrum to provide a very sweet and musical performance. We suggest you try it and make your own judgment.
- Mic gain is from 0dB to 66dB. Overall gain to restore the apparent program level
- DI Gain: DI Gain is from 0dB to 30dB
- DI input: Balanced or unbalanced Hi-Z input for instruments
