Radial ProD8 D.I Box

Radial ProD8: 8-Channel Rackmount DI for Professional Musicians

The Radial ProD8 is a high-performance 8-channel passive direct box optimized for keyboard rigs in professional touring. It features redundant 1/4″ inputs for each channel and a completely passive design that requires no power to operate.

Key Features

• Professional Performance: The ProD8 packs up to 8 direct box outputs into a single 1RU rack space, with dual 1/4″ inputs on each channel to incorporate a backup system or connect up to 16 channels of audio at once.
• Transformer-Driven Design: The core of the ProD8 is a custom-wound Eclipse ET-DB2 transformer that handles impedance matching and balancing. It can withstand the extreme dynamics from high-output digital keyboards without harsh distortion.
• Superior Signal Handling: The passive design allows the ProD8 to handle high input levels gracefully. Instead of clipping, the transformers saturate, producing a warm, natural tone reminiscent of vintage audio gear.
• Noise Elimination: 100% galvanic isolation between the source and destination effectively eliminates hum and buzz caused by ground loops.
• Adaptable Configuration: Reversible rack ears allow for flexible setup options, letting you position the inputs on either the front or the back of the rack to suit your workflow.

Conclusion

The Radial ProD8 is the perfect solution for keyboard players and audio engineers who need to manage multiple audio sources in a touring or studio environment. With its robust build, flexible design, and exceptional audio quality, the ProD8 is an indispensable tool for any setup that demands high reliability and performance.
