Art ZDIRECT Rack Mountable Passive Direct Box With Phase Invert And High Pass Filter

If you’re serious about getting the cleanest, most reliable signal from your instrument to the mixer—whether on stage, in a studio, or in a permanent installation—the ART Zdirect  is exactly the kind of professional tool you want in your setup.

This is not just another DI box. The ART Zdirect is a fully passive, high-performance transformer-based interface designed to convert instrument, line, or even speaker-level signals into a pristine, balanced low-impedance output. Thanks to its premium audio isolation transformer, it delivers an extremely flat and wide frequency response, preserving your tone with clarity and neutrality—even across long cable runs in high-noise environments.

Whether you’re connecting a guitar, bass, keyboard, DJ controller, audio interface, or powered speaker, the Zdirect ensures your sound reaches the mixer clean, balanced, and noise-free.

Why Professionals Choose the ART Zdirect:

• High-Performance Passive Design – No Power Required
  No batteries. No external power supply. Just pure, reliable signal conversion through a high-quality transformer that converts 50k ohm inputs into 600 ohm balanced outputs with absolute stability.
• Switchable Input Attenuation (0, -20, -40 dB): Handle anything from hot line-level to speaker-level signals with confidence. The built-in attenuator lets you adapt instantly to different signal strengths without distortion.
• Ground Lift for Hum-Free Operation: The switchable ground lift fully isolates input from output grounds, eliminating hum and ground loop noise—essential in live sound, fixed installs, and complex PA systems.
• Phase Invert Switch: Not something you find on basic DI boxes. Instantly flip signal polarity at the source—perfect when blending a direct signal with a microphone feed to avoid phase cancellation issues.
• Switchable Low-Pass (Bessel) Filter: This extended feature sets it apart. The output filter removes ultra-high-frequency interference and reduces RF noise before it enters your main system. It’s especially effective when interfacing with computer-based audio workstations—helping reduce digital artifacts and unwanted noise.
• Input Thru Jack: Tap into your signal chain easily—send one signal to your amp and another to the mixer without compromising tone.
• Rugged Aluminum Construction: Housed in a compact, black anodized extruded aluminum case, the Zdirect is built to survive years of live gigs, DJ events, installations, and touring use.
• From Live Sound engineers and DJs to studio producers and installers, the ART Zdirect delivers clean conversion, rock-solid reliability, and professional-level flexibility in one compact box.

If you want a DI that protects your tone, eliminates noise, and gives you full control over your signal path, this is the obvious choice.
