1202VLZ4 Mixer with DI Box and Cable

This bundle pairs the Mackie 1202VLZ4 12-channel mixer with a Rockville RDI5 passive DI box and a 10-foot RCXMB10-B XLR-to-TRS cable, giving a guitarist, bassist, or keyboard player a direct path from instrument to mixer. The 1202VLZ4 runs 4 Onyx mic preamps with a 128.5 dB dynamic range and a 3-band EQ, keeping the signal clean once it reaches the console. The RDI5 converts an unbalanced instrument or line signal to a balanced line level with switchable attenuation for guitar, bass, keyboards, or even speaker-level feeds, using a transformer 2 to 3 times larger than typical DI boxes for a true 600 ohm output. A steel chassis and switchable ground lift keep the signal quiet and free of hum caused by ground loops. The included 10-foot cable runs 100 percent oxygen-free copper conductors under a 90 percent spiral shield, resisting the interference that degrades cheaper cabling. Together, the DI box and cable give an instrument a clean, balanced connection straight into the mixer's Onyx preamps, covering the direct-input side of a live rig or a home recording setup in one package.
