My friends at @Sweetwater sent me the RNDI Direct Box from @Rupert Neve just in time for this video about direct boxes, why they’re so important, and all the problems they solve. A huge should out to them for sending this beast over. This may not be the video you wanted… But it IS ABSOLUTELY the video you need. I could have used education on this topic early in my career so I tried to make the video I would have needed Hope you all benefit from it :)
A QUICK CORRECTION: When I explain in the video what DI stands for, I also meant to add "Direct Injection". However, I forgot to say that and then also forgot to edit it in. My apologies. I've been sick so please forgive my airheadedness lol. Have a great day everyone!

Don’t feel embarrassed at all. I went years without understanding. The only reason I jumped on the DI train as early-ish as I did was after getting griped out by an incredible FOH engineer for showing up with a 7 member band and stressing their system out. He taught me a lot about them and I’m very thankful. Just paying it forward with this video :) Thanks for watching, my friend.

I have 2 scenario that needs your advice. 1st scenario I am recording with a fractal out to a Komplete 6 audio interface. May I know how should I connect the DI box in between? Guitar unbalanced to fractal => fractal balanced to DI balanced input => DI balanced output to interface input 1. Is this the right connection? 2nd scenario I am play a gig in a stadium that needs a 30 feet cable. My signal chain will be guitar => pedal board => Amp return. May I know where should I put the DI box to reduce noise? Thanx in advance!
@BeauTylerMakesMusic
@BeauTylerMakesMusic Год назад
So with fractal I’m not sure you’ll need it since it should do a really good job of balancing the signal. However, you can clean up your signal by putting the DI between your guitar and your pedal board. Honestly, depending on your rig there are a few places you could put it in your chain, but I’d start there :) hope that helps homie.

Thanks for an awesome video! I am a keyboard player and everyone recommends a passive DI box for the keyboard. But I use styles not only sounds. In styles have bass, guitar, drums.... tracks. Do you recommend the RNDI for this reason which is an active DI box and which option is best for me? From what I hear, I like RNDI a lot. Is this better than Radial JDI passive DI box according you? Thanks!

Hey great video - subscribed! So I got an old Washburn acoustic electric connected to a Yamaha mg06x mostly for vocal effects which is connected to an audio interface, both connected to headphone amp with monitor headphones so I can play with a friend or two at home and also online. I know the electric pick-up, which has both xlr and 1/4 outputs is cheap, but I seem to get ok sound the with unbalanced TS cable connecting it to my line level input on the mixer but maybe it could be better. Would I benefit from a DI box at all in this scenario by using the xlr mic level input instead for the acoustic from the DI box? It's a short run so would it even noticeably improve the sound quality? The mixer only has two XLR inputs with one taken up with a mic, so would be nice to reserve the second XLR input for a second mic, but that might be more a future use. If it makes a difference in quality of the acoustic, I might give it a go or any other configuration that might make sense? When I explained this to the guys at sweetwater, they told me that that I could also run the di box into the line level inputs on my yamaha using xlr to trs cables, but not sure about as the Yamaha manual says those line inputs are TS? Sorry confused...
@BeauTylerMakesMusic
@BeauTylerMakesMusic Год назад
Thanks so much David! Yo. If your rig already sounds great and you aren’t running into problems, then the DI box might not be necessary right now. In fact, somtimes they’re not at all “necessary”, but with acoustic guitars, unless there’s some rare factor I don’t know about it will ALWAYS sound better going through a DI. This is because the DI not only boosts and cleans the signal, but it also gives more body to the signal which can be really important for acoustics since they can sometimes sound a bit then when being amplified through cables. The DI, especially this one, gives a bit more fullness to the low end and makes the high end sparkle (for lack of a better word) a bit more :) Hope that helps!

This is the first video I've seen of yours (or on DI boxes, for that matter). Not gonna lie, I'm left feeling somewhat disappointed by the video. I was extremely surprised how well put together this was and how amazing you are at conveying information and making a point. But for whatever reason, I feel like the video ended before it had a chance to get going. I was truly getting into everything you were saying and the flow of the video. Then it just ends. I have no idea if I was expecting more info? More audio comparisons? Really not sure. But while I may sound negative, please don't take it that way. I'm literally saying I wish there was more from you. The video flew by and I thoroughly enjoyed it (and learnt something lol). I'm hoping you have a follow up to this with more details and examples.

@BeauTylerMakesMusic Год назад
Haha. I know what meant. No worries. Man, there were so many examples I’d like to have given and I intend to touch on it more in the future, but I realized at some point during making the video that it was in danger of getting way too long. Especially for a video I just KNEW was going to be my least watched video ever lol. That being said, I would recommend running unbalanced cables into a direct box and then from a direct box into the the POD Go. That’s what I meant when I said pro audio gear prefers balanced signals. However, the POD outputs a balanced signal so from the POD to your interface or speakers I’d use a balanced cable for that. Hope that helps :)
@BeauTylerMakesMusic
@BeauTylerMakesMusic Год назад
Yo. Also. There’s nothing wrong with running it directly into the POD Go and running it from there into your interface either. It will still balance the signal well enough. Personally I’d recommend just trying the DI in multiple locations during your signal flow to find which you prefer. :) also, because the POD will balance the signal, even without the DI it’s gonna sound great. Also, can we just talk about how awesome the POD Go is? Lol

I'v been recently using a RNDI box with a pre-amp and a compressor in my outboard signal chain and I'm hearing a sound that I've been looking for. You've mentioned long cable runs a few times so my question is. Is the DI box not being used as intended? Would I get the same sound from just the Pre-Amp and Compressor?

If you’re not dealing with any hun or electronic interference then it’s not a must have, but it will still definitely clean up your signal no matter what. I think it’s more important for live musicians, but ultimately it’s just about what you want/need. :)

@BeauTylerMakesMusic
@BeauTylerMakesMusic Год назад
Synths have a budget version of a DI already, but if you’re using it on stage or around a bunch of other electronics or cables you can pick up a buzzing ground noise, so it will definitely help eliminate that. Also, as your synth setup grows, you’ll likely need some next level routing and DI boxes DEFINITELY can help in that department. :)

Yo. If you’re not recording any audio you won’t necessarily need one. If you’re sampling from turntables, however, it’s a good idea to run your RCAs into a direct box and then into the interface though. Also, If you’re filming any grooveboxes or gear it’s a great idea to utilize them the same way :) Hope that helps homie. Thanks so much for watching!!!

I met a fossil once who instead of giving Christmas money to his kids, he bought a super expensive Gibson for himself. He never used a DI box, even live, and never made it in music.

Very well done video - sometimes quality explanantions need time - and I can assure you that I listened the comparison with or without the DI box with the shittest pair of headset on and I anyway heard a BIG difference. However, I'm a guitarist using active EMG pickup running to a guitar modeler (BOss GT 1) then straight to the PA. Do I need a passive oar active DI box? THanks in advance for your help

@BeauTylerMakesMusic 10 месяцев назад
Yo! Thanks so much for watching the video. I’m really glad you enjoyed it. It depends on how you are routing. If you’re using a DI between your guitar and your multi effects pedal, then I would recommend active. If you are routing from the multi effects pedal to the mixer then passive should be fine. :)
@obendaperkins5574
@obendaperkins5574 10 месяцев назад
Many thanks, I haven't decided my routing since I don't still own a DI box. However, judging from your video and the excellent quality of the RNDI inside preamp it wouldn't be bad to gofro the active Di before the multifx unit, as I woudl say it might even improve the sound of my guitar.@@BeauTylerMakesMusic

@BeauTylerMakesMusic
@BeauTylerMakesMusic 6 месяцев назад
It depends on the use. On stage, I’d highly recommend it over going direct. In the studio, I’m not sure how needed it’d be though if you don’t have a ton of cable interference sounds :)

The bass signal is clipped on the DI version. Maybe this is intentional but a clipped signal will sound way different.
@BeauTylerMakesMusic
@BeauTylerMakesMusic Год назад
Yo! Thanks for commenting. So I had a bit of a moral vs. creator sort of dilemma on this one. I recorded the non-DI signal first and then plugged the DI in and recorded that second. The creator side of me wanted to fix that, but then I would have been manipulating the signal. I wanted to keep the settings on the interface and my mixer the exact same so that everyone could hear an honest comparison. That huge boost in signal was just a really honest portrayal of how much the DI boosted the signal, which for me is a huge selling point. Hope that explains it well enough. Have an awesome day, AK! :)

Question if you using virtual instrument like a bass virtual instrument. So that will be line level coming out of your interface. Can you go into a DI box or use something else to make it feel more realistic. Please advise
@BeauTylerMakesMusic
@BeauTylerMakesMusic Год назад
Yo. That’s definitely not the function of a DI box, if I’m understanding your question correctly. The DI doesn’t warm up sounds that are already in your computer or device, but rather, they clean up an audio signal on the way into the computer. Hope that answers your question :)

For sure! Pretty much all mics on a live station, for instance, are running into a DI box. Well, at venues with great sound anyway. Lol. :)

Thanks for the info on this!! Still learning about recording guitar. So many new nuances for mixing and recording to learn. Hate it doesn’t have self 48v power not every application will have phantom power. Having to buy a phantom power supply to power the unit I am buying.
@BeauTylerMakesMusic
@BeauTylerMakesMusic Год назад
Glad you enjoyed it! This has to be one of my lowest viewed videos but it seems to have helped the most people :) anyway, I know it’s a bummer to buy external phantom power, but it’ll come in so handy that you’ll be so glad you did. I have a little standalone phantom power unit about the same size of the DI in this video. I bought it back when I got the Maschine MK3 to power condenser mics and I had no idea how often it would come in handy. :)

Hi Bro , ... Audio Interface Output ( 1 & 2 )--------> ( Input ) RNDI ---------> RNDI output -------> Audio interface input ( 3 & 4 ) --------> Record ( write in a Track ) ....??? ( Shall i get the Neve sound in my track ? ( Is that possible ? then definetely worth But .....is that possible ?????
@BeauTylerMakesMusic
@BeauTylerMakesMusic Год назад
Yo. If I’m understanding your question correctly, you’re asking about the routing. The microphone or the instrument cable goes into the RNDI. Then the RNDI is connected to your audio interface via XLR. As far as the “Neve” sound I think that would be more about preamps but this will definitely boost and cleanup just about any input signal for sure :)

@BeauTylerMakesMusic
@BeauTylerMakesMusic Год назад
You should be good to go if all you are wanting a DI for is the balancing of signal. However, if you’re wanting the additional routing options that a DI offers then I’d recommend an actual DI box :)

Looks like the Neve di, apart from the DI box basic funtions, has Low shelf and high shelf boost, i dont know if thats exactly something good or just a marketing thing, but lots of super expensive DI's doesnt resemble that EQ boost. Maybe you sould try to compare without the Neve, and aplying shelf boost on the DAW. Other important thing, at least for me, how much the noise floor it has (with numbers) compared with other DI units
@BeauTylerMakesMusic
@BeauTylerMakesMusic 11 месяцев назад
Nah. That’s such a small portion of what a DI does. Mostly it fends off signal interference which provides clarity to the signal, not just an EQ boost :)
