Rupert Neve Designs RNDI-M Active Transformer Direct Interface
DI Box with Class A Amplifiers, Neve Custom Transformers, and +20.5dBu Maximum Input Level
Introducing the Rupert Neve Designs RNDI-M: a compact, high-performance DI box that brings the renowned Neve sound quality to your setup.
Exceptional Audio Performance
The RNDI-M features a Class-A, discrete FET input stage paired with custom Rupert Neve transformers, delivering a rich, natural tone with remarkable clarity. Its wide frequency response—from below 5Hz to over 90kHz—ensures accurate reproduction of your instrument's nuances. With a high input headroom of +20.5dBu, it adeptly handles various sources, including guitars, basses, keyboards, synths, drum machines, and pre-recorded tracks, without distortion.
Versatile Connectivity and Features
Designed for both studio and stage applications, the RNDI-M offers a transformer-balanced XLR output with low impedance (<40 Ohms), facilitating long cable runs without signal degradation. The 1/4" THRU output allows simultaneous connection to amplifiers, maintaining signal integrity. A ground lift switch helps eliminate unwanted hum and interference, ensuring a clean signal path. Powered by standard 48V phantom power, its blue LED indicator confirms operational status.
Robust and Portable Design
Housed in a rugged steel chassis, the RNDI-M is built to withstand the rigors of touring and demanding studio environments. Its compact, pedalboard-friendly form factor makes it an ideal choice for musicians and engineers seeking reliable, high-quality direct input solutions.
Experience the uncompromised sonic excellence of Rupert Neve Designs with the RNDI-M—a DI box that faithfully captures the essence of your instrument's sound.
