Review: Excellent DI box, with a bonus feature - This is a Behringer Ultra-DI DI100 with a bit of extra, optional circuitry. Everything good that has been said about the DI100 applies to the GI100. It's reliable, built to withstand the rigours of real world use, and provides an exceptionally faithful signal for a very reasonable price. Why people will pay more for a DI box is a mystery to me. The only flaw with the unit is that fitting a battery is fiddly. As I have bad hands this is an irritation, but only a minor one because, if you're using the box in a professional environment, the chances are you have phantom power available anyway. (If you do use batteries, consider buying a box of Duracell Procells . They're much cheaper than coppertops and just as good.) The difference from the DI100 is the inclusion of Behringer's "Ultra-G" 4×12inch cabinet simulator. I don't really need it as I have a Bass V-Amp Pro for that purpose. But the difference in price is negligible, and it's always good to have some spare equipment around. The cab-sim is switchable, so it doesn't cause a problem when you just need a straight DI box. Obviously, it's not as flexible as the V-Amp. It's either on or off, that's it. But it's a very usable analogue simulation, and can be driven from the output of a power amplifier if required, rather than directly from the instrument. I defy anyone to say that's not worth three quid. One last thing: If you're tempted by the prospect of eliminating hum with the "ground lift" switch, but don't actually know what it does, I recommend you read up on the topic first.
Review: ... London we found that the speakers had a very bad electrical buzzing sound that was painful to the ears ... - While setting up a conference in London we found that the speakers had a very bad electrical buzzing sound that was painful to the ears and would not cease no matter what volume level. I went online and found this on a different website but price was much higher and deliver took over a week, while we needed it within a day. I purchased the product and the next day 4pm we had the product and the problem was complexly solved. Its a very sturdy design compact and very simple works perfectly. very happy with the product and the delivery time. Would recommend.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be used with an acoustic-electric with a passive pickup?**
A: Yes, the Behringer Utra-G works as well as any DI, with an acoustic guitar. It has two input pads to balance your input level.

**Q: What type of cable should i connect from speaker out of my micro terror to the input jack of yhis DI?**
A: Whatever cable you would use to connect to an external speaker cabinet should work fine, provided it has a 1/4" plug on the end going to the DI box. Remember that you need a speaker connected through this as well to maintain the expected load on the amp. There is a 1/4" jack on the box for the signal to go directly through and to a speaker, independent of the circuit for sending the signal to the mixer/PA/whatever.
This may help, and I'll post it in a couple of places in the string.

**Q: this would still need to be hooked up to my speaker cabinet pushing sound thro speakers? im assuming this doesnt work as a load box**
A: It is a load adapter with a 4 x 12 cabinet simulator. You could send the output to a PA or an Amplifier. It won't drive speakers.

**Q: How many hours will it operate from a standard 9V alkaline battery?**
A: I don't know but be sure to carry one or two backups in your gig bag

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ No facility for a power adaptor
*by A***R on 18 December 2021*

Brilliant piece of kit - but a major design flaw in no barrel connector for external power battery only, yes you can leave the battery door off (and no doubt loose it) and use a9v battery connector the wrong way round and wire that into an external.power supply....you can but it's poor design that you need too...
