Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Canvas Mono is a passive direct box and line isolator that converts one unbalanced source into a balanced XLR connection for a mixer or recording interface. Its standard pedal-sized enclosure makes it easy to keep on a board. In DI mode, it handles high-impedance electric guitar and bass signals with -20dB reduction, or -35dB when the pad is engaged. LI mode keeps low-impedance sources such as amp-and-cab simulators and keyboards at full volume with less preamp gain required.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Taking an electric guitar or bass directly into a mixer or recording interface.
- Connecting an amp-and-cab simulator or keyboard to a balanced XLR mixer input.
