The IsoDI has a transformer isolated power supply to allow a ground lift while still
operating with phantom power. Pin 1 on the XLR is always connected to the
chassis, but can be connected to the Input ground with the XLR switch.
The IsoDI has two modes: Parallel and IsoOut.
Parallel mode: the Input and the Parallel jacks are wired together so that they can
be used as two summed inputs or as an input and a loop out to an amplifier.
IsoOut mode: the IsoOut jack is a transformer isolated output. This isolation can
break ground loops, but also helps to reject noises from being injected into the
input from the amplifier.

Noisy Stage Ground
The IsoDI has a high input impedance so that it doesn’t load down passive
instruments. The main signal path is also transformerless to give the ultimate
transparent tone.

Badly wired stages are pretty common. Light dimmer hash and other noises are
coming out of the amp before you even plug into it. The IsoDI’s IsoOut feature
can keep these noises out of the DI feed.

Setting up a couple of amplifiers in the studio can be a great way to test out
different tones, but often just turns into a mess of ground noise. The IsoDI can
help by isolating one amp from the other.
