Stereo DI for DJs and Electronic Musicians

The stereo Samson MCD2 Pro is a clean solution for mobile DJs and electronic musicians who need to get their signal into a sound system. It includes stereo RCA ins for a turntable, a stereo 1/8″ input for a phone or laptop, and dual 1/4″ inputs for instruments or a keyboard. The MCD2 Pro’s -12dB attenuator switch easily accommodates both balanced and unbalanced signals. And Samson’s custom STLX transformers have the far-reaching low end (down to 18Hz) to reproduce rich synth pads and fat breakbeats in powerful detail with super-low distortion, each with a Mu-metal shielding to protect against hum and RFI onstage.

Custom STLX shielded transformers are rich, dynamic, and quiet

The transformer is where the rubber meets the road in a passive DI box. And fortunately, Samson’s custom STLX transformers deliver in the MCD2 Pro. The STLX covers the full audible spectrum and beyond, able to capture the subharmonic richness of a synth and high-end detail of a 48kHz recording and deliver it noise-free to your mixing board or interface thanks to a Mu-metal shielding.
