ART BT-DI Project Series Bluetooth Direct Box

The BT-DI lets you connect Bluetooth audio to a mixer, PA system, or audio interface.

It's a rugged unit with simple controls. Hold the Bluetooth button to pair or disconnect a device. A front panel switch selects between a fixed volume at the main outputs or variable adjustment with the Level knob, which also controls the monitor output.

The monitor output is switchable between mono and stereo operation, and supports headphone and line level connections. The Ground Lift on the rear panel can eliminate grounding noise when the BT-DI is connected to a computer.

The XLR connections accept phantom power, so an external adaptor isn't required. The unit can also be powered over USB using bus power or a 5-volt 80 mA adapter (not included). With a range of up to 100 feet (30 metres), the BT-DI makes it easy to integrate wireless audio into your sound system.
