PatchBox

STEREO OUTPUT MULTIPLIER

Product Description

PatchBox is a passive “output multiplier” that can be used to

distribute the output of a professional audio mixer to the

inputs of peripheral equipment. PatchBox is ideal for feeding

a mixer’s output signal into DAT recorders, digital editors,

computer sound cards, cassette and reel decks, VCRs, PA

systems, dubbing racks, limiters, and other audio equipment.

Both professional equipment with balanced inputs and

consumer equipment with unbalanced inputs can be used.

PatchBox is compatible with any active balanced

(transformerless) low impedance signal source that is ground-

referenced. (Most professional mixers built since the early

1980s use this topology.)

From a stereo source, PatchBox creates eleven stereo

outputs: five balanced stereo outputs and six unbalanced

stereo outputs.

PatchBox balanced outputs, on XLR and ¼” TRS connectors,

provide a “unity gain” signal with a 600 ohm source impedance.

PatchBox unbalanced outputs, on gold-plated RCA connectors,

provide a signal that is compatible with the inputs of consumer

gear. Because the inputs circuits of audio equipment are

normally high-impedance (“bridging”), any combination of

outputs can be used simultaneously without interaction or signal

degradation.
