Introducing the New United Studio Technologies Vintage Direct Box
By Front End Audio on Jun 19th 2024
Introducing the New United Studio Technologies Vintage Direct Box! United Studio Technologies has just announced the new United Studio Technologies Vintage Direct Box. The Vintage Direct is a direct box for recording guitars and bass that features a massive custom US-made transformer. Its circuit design is based around eliminating any of the potential tone-robbing components in the signal path that you’re likely to find in a lesser DI Box. You get all the gain you could ever want, with no need for a boost pedal or preamp - neatly tucked into a sturdy, tour-worthy chassis. The front of the Vintage Direct features a -12 dB attenuation switch, a phase switch, a ground lift switch, and an output gain knob.
For the custom transformer, United Studio Technologies used a high-nickel lamination and a winding ratio very close to the original inspiration. The result is United’s US made “5078” large-core transformer, one of the largest transformers you’ll ever find in any DI. It delivers a pristine low-noise signal, wide frequency response, extraordinary headroom, and outstanding noise rejection.
