{"product_id":"se-electronics-dm3-black-active-inline-di","title":"sE Electronics DM3 BLACK Active Inline DI","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe sE Electronics DM3 BLACK is a compact active inline DI designed to connect instrument-level sources directly to a phantom-powered XLR input. It provides a practical way to feed guitars, basses, keyboards, drum machines, synthesizers, and similar sources into a mixer, stage box, or audio interface. Its inline format eliminates the need for a separate DI box and an additional XLR cable between the DI and the input.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 10-megaohm Ultra-HiZ input is intended to place minimal load on passive pickups and other high-impedance sources. This helps preserve the natural character of electric guitars, basses, piezo-equipped instruments, and vintage high-impedance microphones. The DM3 BLACK is suited to live stages, home recording, studio tracking, and portable rigs that need a compact DI solution.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe DM3 uses sE Electronics DYNAMITE technology and a dedicated Class-A output buffer amplifier. Its frequency range is specified at 10 Hz to 120 kHz within -0.3 dB, while the output noise level is rated at 1 µV JIS-A. The buffered output is designed to provide a stable signal to a microphone preamp or other XLR-equipped input.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor high-output sources, the recessed attenuation control provides 15 dB and 30 dB pad settings. The maximum input level is specified as 19, 34, or 49 dBV depending on the attenuation setting. A three-position ground-lift switch includes Off, On, and On+ positions to help address ground-loop hum and, where applicable, additional high-frequency noise or radio-frequency interference.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe matte-black DM3 BLACK uses a 6.3 mm locking input jack and a gold-plated 3-pin male XLR output. It is powered by 48V phantom power supplied from the connected XLR input, so it does not use batteries. At 95.5 mm long and 70 g, it is easy to keep in an instrument case or add to a compact stage or recording setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e10 MΩ Ultra-HiZ Input:\u003c\/strong\u003e Helps retain the character of passive pickups and other high-impedance sources.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass-A Output Buffer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Buffers the instrument signal for connection to a microphone preamp or XLR input.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSwitchable Input Pad:\u003c\/strong\u003e Selectable 15 dB or 30 dB attenuation accommodates higher-output sources.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree-Position Ground Lift:\u003c\/strong\u003e Off, On, and On+ settings help manage ground-loop and interference-related noise.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking 1\/4-Inch Input:\u003c\/strong\u003e Helps prevent an instrument cable from being accidentally disconnected.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e48V Phantom-Powered Operation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Draws operating power from a compatible phantom-powered XLR input.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign \u0026amp; Installation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe DM3 BLACK has an all-metal inline housing with a discreet matte-black finish. Its compact cylindrical body measures 20 mm in diameter, and the output uses a gold-plated 3-pin male XLR connector. Recessed pad and ground-lift controls are designed to reduce unintended setting changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConnect an instrument or playback device with a 1\/4-inch instrument cable to the DM3 input, then connect the male XLR output directly to a compatible mixer, interface, preamp, or stage-box input. Enable 48V phantom power on that XLR input before use. Use the pad for overly hot source signals, and select the ground-lift setting only as needed to reduce noise in the particular system.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"sE Electronics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45669430493254,"sku":"DM3 BLACK","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0048\/4163\/5910\/files\/61h6700r2fL.jpg?v=1784502076","url":"https:\/\/audiowatt.store\/products\/se-electronics-dm3-black-active-inline-di","provider":"Audio Watt Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
