(3) SPEAKER/GUITAR SWITCH

Switch enables a 35dB pad when set to SPEAKER, allowing the input to receive high
level signals from speaker or amplifier outputs.

(4) 1/4" INPUT

Unbalanced 1/4" input jack for inputting a line level, instrument level, or speaker level
signal.

(5) 1/4" OUTPUT

Unbalanced 1/4" output jack which is in parallel with the input jack.  This allows the ADI-1
to be used as a Y-splitter by sending the input signal to another device via the 1/4" output
as well as sending it from the balanced XLR output.

(6) XLR OUTPUT

Balanced XLR output jack [Pin 1 = Ground, Pin 2 = Hot(+),  Pin 3 = Cold(-)]

(7) BATTERY COMPARTMENT

Remove screw and panel to install 9V battery.

Specifications

Connected to Instrument

The ADI-1 can be used to connect the unbalanced output of an instrument or line level
device (eg. guitar, bass, synthesizer, effects module, another mixer) to the balanced
input of a mixer or amplifier.   Set the 

GUITAR/SPEAKER (3)

 switch to GUITAR for this

application.  If you desire to send the original unbalanced signal on to a mixer or
amplifier, use the 

1/4" UNBALANCED OUTPUT (5)

.  The 

1/4" OUTPUT (5)

 is paral-

leled with the input, therefore, when using the 

1/4" OUTPUT (5),

 the input device and

output device volume controls may need to be adjusted to acquire the desired level.

Connected to Amplifier

The ADI-1 can be used to connect an amplifier’s speaker output, or a speaker’s “daisy
chain” output, to the balanced input of a mixer.  Set the 

GUITAR/SPEAKER (3)

 switch

to SPEAKER for this application.   If your speaker has only one connector, the ADI-1
can be inserted between the amplifier and speaker using the 

1/4" INPUT (4)

 and 

1/4"

OUTPUT (5) 

jacks.
