Duplex™ - with two stereo keyboards:
Dual channels with 'thru' jacks means you can do twice as much with one DI. Plug one stereo keyboard into the left & right 1/4" Input jacks and the other keyboard into the 1/4" L & R 'thru' jacks. Press the 'Merge' switch on each channel. The channels are completely in dependant and each have their own XLR out, -15dB pad switch and hi-cut filter. You can also use the left and right RCA jacks to send a stereo signal to an amp or monitor mixer. Talk about versatile!

In this setup:

• Keyboard-1 connects to 1/4" input jacks
• Keyboard-2 connects to 1/4" thru jacks
• Engage the 'Merge' function for both channels
• Left and right XLR DI outputs go to mixer/recorder or PA

Duplex™ - with stereo iPod:
Interface stereo consumer audio gear, such as an iPod, directly into +4dB balanced audio gear be it mixing console, recorder, broadcast or PA system. The -15dB pad can be switched in to tame hot input signals. If you want, you can plug in headphones to the 'Thru' jacks to monitor the input—tip: use the 'XLR In Select' switches to interrupt the XLR OUT signal so you can privately monitor the iPod!

In this setup:

• iPod plugs into RCA or 1/4" jacks using the appropriate cable
• Headphones plug in to RCA or 1/4" 'Thru' jacks with appropriate cable
• Engage the pad if the device if required to avoid overloading the mixer
• Connect each balanced XLR output to two (panned) mixer channel

Duplex™ - swap +4Db XLR or RCA inputs:
The Duplex also has balanced line inputs! In this scenario, a mixer's balanced stereo output is plugged straight into the Duplex two -20dB padded XLR-F inputs. A computer or other stereo source can be input to the Duplex via the left and right RCA or 1/4" inputs. Use the Duplex's -15dB pad switches if necessary here. Now just use the 'XLR select' switches on the Duplex to select either the low level or XLR line level input.

In this setup:

• Low-Z line level from mixer, DJ gear etc. connects via XLR-in
• Computer stereo audio connects to the Duplex's RCA or 1/4" inputs
• Switch between low or -20dB padded line level input with 'XLR Select' switch

Duplex™ - bass guitar + bass pedals:
Having two independent DI channels with thru jacks means you can have two separate rigs (and amplifiers) and use them at the same time. Each of the Duplex's two channels has it's own -15dB pad and hi-cut filter and the Duplex's 'Merge' function lets you merge a stereo input to mono without giving up an extra channel. The XLR output form each instrument goes into separate mixer channels for total control.

In this setup:

• Bass and bass pedals plug into Left and Right 1/4" or RCA inputs.
• Left and Right 1/4" or RCA 'Thru' connectors to separate amplifiers
• Set Left and Right -15dB pad and hi-cut filter to suit
• Balanced XLR outs go to separate mixer channels
