Walrus Audio Canvas Stereo Dual Line Isolator/Direct Box

The Canvas Stereo from Walrus Audio is a Direct Box/Line Isolator designed to remove any resistance between you and your audience by providing a pristine, sonic foundation upon which to build your stereo masterpiece. From houses of worship to the dive bar downtown, Canvas Stereo is built to be the performance tool that goes wherever you make your music. Canvas Stereo is a Passive Line Isolator (LI) and Direct Injection (DI) device that converts your unbalanced signals into balanced signals for interfacing properly with your recording interface or mixer at front-of-house. If you’re using an amp-in-a-box (DSP Guitar Rig), like the ACS1, keyboards or any other instrument utilizing both left and right outputs, then the Canvas Stereo is your new bridge to the front-of-house. Canvas Series DIs pack everything you need from a DI/LI into a standard pedal-sized enclosure designed to look great right on top of your board.

Use DI mode when connecting an unbalanced, high impedance source  (Electric Guitar, Bass Guitar, etc). The signal will be reduced by -20dB (-35dB with pad engaged) and converted to a balanced signal via the transformer connected to the XLR output. Use the gain on your mixer or preamp to bring up to line level. Use the LI when needing to connect your unbalanced, low impedance source (Amp + Cab Sim like the ACS1, keys, etc.). The signals will remain full volume and be converted to balanced signals via the transformer connected to the XLR output. Less preamp gain will be required in LI mode.
