Operating the S direct plus Converting the Output of Unbalanced Devices The S direct plus can be quite useful on stage or in the studio for connecting unbalanced devices, particularly keyboards and DJ mixers. The output levels of many keyboards and DJ mixers are low, so their signals can benefit greatly by connecting their unbalanced outputs to the S direct plus.

Operating the S direct plus Connecting to High Power Signals The S direct plus provides the capability of tapping off the signals from amplifiers, such as the output of a guitar amp with stereo effects or any power amplifier. You can even use S direct plus to connect to the speaker output of a consumer stereo system or boom box, for example, if you want to sample some old records or cassette tapes.
