## Features

- The Mackie MDB-2P passive direct box (DI) transforms a pair of high-impedance inputs into two balanced, low-impedance XLR outputs. The 2P excels as a stereo direct box for keyboards and playback, and it works equally well for two mono instruments
- Connect your instrument(s) to the high-impedance 1/4" TS inputs, and the MDB-2P will pass the high-impedance signal to another destination (like a pair of amps) using the 1/4" TS thru outputs
- The balanced, low-impedance XLR outputs excel at long cable runs in environments where noise is an issue. Connect this XLR output to a mixer or interface. If there is still any hum, hit the ground lift switch
- As a passive DI box, the Mackie MDB-2P requires no power and passes two clean, balanced signals with ultra-low noise and distortion. It's the perfect no-hassle option for live performance and touring
- The Mackie MDB-2P stereo direct box excels at handling high-output synths. When using a louder instrument, just engage the -15 dB pads to ensure distortion-free performance

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can i use this for connecting the unbalanced l and r ts outputs from a drum machine into the balanced xlr inputs of two (left and right) speakers?**
A: Yes.  It is a two channel direct box. This device translates input from each 1/4" input to the associated XLR output.  You could do this with stereo L/R outputs or two separate instruments entirely.

**Q: Can I run 2 Keyboards in stereo thru this?**
A: It has two inputs and two outputs, imagine two very slim DI's attached together. So yes you can run stereo in but its going to be separate XLR outputs for L & R

**Q: Wondering if there is any bleed between left and right? We use loops with loops out right and a click our left to the board.**
A: There should be no bleed.

**Q: I don’t see the xlr out outputs on this unit??**
A: The XLR outputs are there. This direct box works great.
