my application:
i am a drummer. i play live with a click. i have a small mixer that i want to use to blend my monitor feed and click signal; which will then be monitored with my wired in ears. i want to make it streamline and quick to do so as setup time is limited.
my idea:
to take a parallel out of my monitor wedge (speaker level most of the time) into a di, then into my mixer.
my solution:
i know pro co makes a direct box that you can plug a speaker line in to and it coverts it to line level.
my question:
what is this box actually doing to the signal? is it just attenuating the level? what impedence does the amp see? is there any risk to the pa amp or my mixer? i have an rms di that attenuates -45db. would this essentially do the same thing as the proco?
