Description
NOTE: I will get a photo of this unit on my website hopefully by the evening (EST) of Monday, June 22nd:visit www.tommyswirled.comand scroll down the main page and click on "Instruments for Sale"I'm taking the ultimate description of this piece of equipment from the Artisan Guitars listing of the same piece of equipment. I bought it directly from Artisan last year and have not used it other than to make sure it works.The original manual (immaculate) is included and it ships in the original box.The big thing about this is that it can handle two channels independently and that each channel has tunable EQ on both.I just have no need for it; my Bliss is not headed in that direction.Shipping: Winning bidder is expected to pay within 10 business days. Shipping, packing, and insurance within the contiguous United States will be a flat fee of $10.00. (Bidders elsewhere will have to pay $25.00). PayPal is NOT accepted unless you first get an OK from me before the end of auction.I prefer money orders, but will take a personal check (which will result in a 3-week waiting period, as per my bank, before shipping).Highlander PAMDI - Pro Acoustic Mix DI BoxOVERVIEW Another fine item from Artisan Guitars. We are a full service acoustic shop, specializing in hand crafted guitars and mandolins. The Pro Acoustic Mix DI is a fully-featured, two-channel mixer designed for working musicians. Each channel includes our powerful new "Four Band, Tunable EQ," combining ease of use with exceptional perofrmance. This powerhouse outperforms bulky, expensive rack mount equipment, while its ultra-compact design enables it to fit in most guitar cases. Use the PAMDI with any instruments that are euipped with Active Pickups, Passive Magnetic Pickups and/or an Electret Mic. The PAMDI can mix two instruments, an instrument that has two pickups or an instrument that has a pickup and a mic (such as Highlander's iP-2 Dual System with a Highlander Internal Mic). When used with two instruments, the volume and tone can be preset for each instrument individually. Changing instruments is as easy as hitting the mute buttons. Each instrument can be tuned independently of the other while the master output is muted. Gain precise control over your tone with "Four Band Tunable EQ, eliminate feedback, control the level of reverb/echo, connect directly to a PA or recording console via the built-in DI and much more, with Highlander's Pro Acoustic Mix DI.

Frequency Response: ±0.5dB 15Hz to 200KHz ±3dB 10Hz to 400KHz Slew Rate: 5V/µS THD: (1KHz @ 0dB) 0.01% (* Predominantly 2nd Harmonic) 2nd Harmonic Distortion 0.009% 3rd Harmonic Distortion 0.001% Noise: -98dB Clipping Level (Battery Power): 17.3dB (115.3dB Dynamic Range) Clipping Level (AC Adapter): 19.5dB (117.5dB Dynamic Range) Input Sensitivity: -12dB (Typical for acoustic instrument pickups)Equalization LO: tunable shelving 25Hz - 500Hz ±15dB LO MID: tunable notch 140Hz - 3KHz ±15dB HI MID: tunable notch 350Hz - 8KHz ±15dB HI: tunable shelving 4KHz - 24KHz ±15dB Power Power Requirements: ±9VDC to ±12VDC @ 4.2mA The AD18 AC Adapter supplies AC voltage, which is converted to DC in the unit. * 2nd Harmonic distortion, at the low levels that it occurs in the Pro Acoustic Mix DI, is not audible. However, this type of harmonic distortion is the prevalent type of distortion in tube amplifiers and is associated with warm sound. Extended Response: During the course of Highlander's extensive research, harmonics as high as 45KHz have been regularly measured emanating from acoustic guitars. We are sure that many acoustic instruments produce even higher harmonics. While the human ear cannot detect frequencies this high, these harmonics do have an effect on what we hear and perceive. For example, it is well known that two frequencies that are close in pitch generate “beat” frequencies. Some musicians use these beat frequencies to aid in tuning. These beat frequencies are actually the sum and difference of the original pitches. If the difference between two high harmonics(e.g. 40KHz and 42KHz) is 2KHz, this can be heard even though the harmonics cannot. Typically, in order to "roll off" the low end, a phase shift is incurred. Our Extended Low End Response insures that bass instruments will not suffer any phase shift when their lowest notes are played through Highlander equipment. Phase shift tends to cancel low notes and rob the sound of its 'punch'. These are just some of the reasons why Highlander strives to produce equipment with Extended Frequency Response.
