This diagram illustrates two standard DI applications. The signal going to the amp via

the DIRECT LINK is unaected; it is simply picked up and additionally fed, as a balanced,

low-impedance signal, to the mic inputs of the mixing console. This is particularly

advantageous with bass guitars, since microphones that reproduce high-energy bass

frequencies in a halfway linear manner are rare—and expensive. When using eects or other

outboard processors, theseshould beconnected in front of the ULTRA-G in the signal path,

sothat its output includes these signals.

Few keyboards have balanced outputs. Here, a quality DI box such as the GI100 is indispensable

to ensure clean signals, especially when using long cables.
