Custom STLX shielded transformer is rich, dynamic, and quiet
The transformer is where the rubber meets the road in a passive DI box. And fortunately, Samson's custom STLX transformer delivers in the MD1 Pro. The STLX covers the full audible spectrum and beyond, able to capture all the subharmonic richness of a synth and high-end detail of an acoustic guitar and carry it noise-free to your mixing board or interface thanks to a Mu-metal shielding.

3-way attenuator prevents input overloading
A 0dB/-15dB/-30dB attenuator switch lets you use passive instruments, line-level signals, and speaker-level signals without overloading your DI. So whatever your needs, this MD1 Pro has you covered.

Steel chassis is built for the road
The Samson MD1 Pro's 14-gauge steel housing resists noise and stage abuse to keep your events running smooth night after night. Sweetwater knows sound professionals can expect years of performance from their Samson MD1 Pro.
