3-way Attenuator for Any Source


The MD1 Pro is the next generation of Samson's affordable and rugged S-Max direct boxes. Its custom STLX transformer has the far-reaching low end (down to 18Hz) to reproduce synth lines and bass guitars in powerful detail with super-low distortion, and a Mu-metal shielding to protect against hum and RFI onstage. So whether you're looking to re-amp electric guitars in the studio or send an acoustic guitar to front of house, the Samson MD1 Pro does a great job for the price. Like the MD1 standard, the MD1 Pro includes a Thru output to go between instruments and amps without coloring the sound. It also has a 3-position attenuator to prevent overloading from line- and speaker-level inputs.

Custom STLX shielded transformer is rich, dynamic, and quiet

The transformer is where the rubber meets the road in a passive DI box. And fortunately, Samson's custom STLX transformer delivers in the MD1 Pro. The STLX covers the full audible spectrum and beyond, able to capture all the subharmonic richness of a synth and high-end detail of an acoustic guitar and carry it noise-free to your mixing board or interface thanks to a Mu-metal shielding.

3-way attenuator prevents input overloading

A 0dB/-15dB/-30dB attenuator switch lets you use passive instruments, line-level signals, and speaker-level signals without overloading your DI. So whatever your needs, this MD1 Pro has you covered.

Steel chassis is built for the road

The Samson MD1 Pro's 14-gauge steel housing resists noise and stage abuse to keep your events running smooth night after night. Sweetwater knows sound professionals can expect years of performance from their Samson MD1 Pro.
