Key Features
The Lambden Audio DIP1 Passive DI Box is suited to musicians needing reliable signal conversion for live and studio use. The DIP1 converts instrument-level signals into a balanced XLR output, making it easy to connect guitars, basses, keyboards, and other sources to mixers, audio interfaces, and PA systems. Its passive design requires no external power, offering a straightforward solution for rehearsals, performances, and recording sessions.
A parallel thru output lets you send your signal to an amplifier while simultaneously feeding a mixing desk or interface. The ground lift switch helps reduce hum caused by ground loops, while the -20dB pad makes it easier to handle higher-output sources without unwanted distortion. Housed in a compact enclosure with protective side panels, the DIP1 is designed to fit neatly into your setup and handle regular transport between sessions and gigs.

The DIP1 converts unbalanced instrument-level signals into a balanced XLR output, helping you connect directly to mixers, PA systems, and audio interfaces. Balanced signals are better suited to longer cable runs, making the DIP1 a useful addition for stage and studio environments alike. Whether you're plugging in a guitar, bass, keyboard, or other line-level source, it provides a simple way to integrate your instrument into professional audio equipment.
The integrated thru output allows you to split your signal between the DI box and an external amplifier. This means you can send a clean balanced feed to front-of-house or a recording interface while continuing to monitor through your preferred amp setup. It's particularly useful for live performances, where you may want the consistency of a direct signal without changing how you hear your instrument on stage.
Unwanted hum can quickly become a distraction in any audio setup. The DIP1 includes a ground lift switch that helps minimise ground loop interference, making it easier to achieve a cleaner signal path. Alongside this, the selectable -20dB pad attenuates hotter input signals to help prevent overload and distortion. Together, these controls give you greater flexibility when working with a variety of instruments and audio sources.
Because the DIP1 uses a passive design, there's no need for batteries or external power supplies. Simply connect your equipment and you're ready to go. The compact housing takes up minimal space on stage or in a pedalboard setup, while the black finish blends neatly with surrounding equipment. Protective side panels help guard against knocks during transport, making the DIP1 a practical choice for musicians who need dependable performance from venue to venue.
