Radial Engineering's Stage Direct ($250) is a direct box that combines all the standard features one would find in a DI with the added convenience of being able to mute the signal using a footswitch. Stage Direct is made from 14-gauge steel and finished in baked enamel for maximum durability. Connections include a ¼-inch input for the instrument, a ¼-inch output for the stage amp, and a standard XLR male output to feed the P.A. system. A separately buffered ¼-inch tuner output is always on. When the footswitch is depressed, all outputs, other than the tuner, are muted. Top panel switches include a -15dB pad to handle extra high output instruments such as an active bass, a highpass filter to eliminate excessive bass and resonance, and a 180-degree polarity reverse to help tame acoustic hotspots on stage that can cause feedback.
