Passive Signal Conversion: Convert unbalanced audio signals into balanced signals (and vice-versa) without the need for a power supply (passive operation). This is achieved via a high-quality, doubled audio transformer built into the device, ensuring reliable galvanic isolation to prevent ground loop hum.
Dual-Direction Operation:
Unbalanced to Balanced: Convert standard RCA/3.5 mm jack signals to professional 3-pole XLR outputs, perfect for running long cables with minimal interference.
Balanced to Unbalanced: Use in reverse to convert balanced XLR signals into unbalanced RCA or 3.5 mm stereo jack outputs (requires an optional XLR/XLR adapter like the NA-3FF).
Lossless Stereo/Mono Conversion: A built-in 2-pole DIP switch allows you to losslessly sum two stereo input signals into a single mono output, offering flexible signal routing options without coupling via resistors.
Universal Connectivity: Features common unbalanced inputs (2 x RCA and 1 x 3.5 mm stereo jack) and professional balanced outputs (2 x 3-pole XLR).
Road-Ready Build: Housed in a compact, durable black metal casing, the TCB-22 is built to withstand the demands of live use and installation.
