Compact, rugged, and versatile, it’s the essential tool for clean, noise-free direct injection in both studio and live environments. ## Description Professional Active Direct Inject Box with Switchable 4x12" Cabinet Simulation Review: Nice D.I. at an unbeatable price - What do you do if you have a tube guitar amp that sounds great and you want to get that sound onto your home studio recordings? The pros use expensive microphones and a sound-proofed room in a studio, but you're probably working in a small room with no sound treatment, noisy air-conditioning, traffic sounds outside, and so on. The answer is this magic little red box. I run the speaker out from my Super Champ XD guitar amp into the Behringer DI box, then plug the guitar speaker into the DI box to provide a load for the amp. The other end of the GI-100 puts out a clean, noise-free signal into a microphone (XLR) cable that runs to my recording equipment. No expensive microphone, no worries about ambient noise or a bad-sounding room, and lovely tube-amp tone on the track (or in the P.A.). The speaker cabinet emulation in the GI-100 is a bonus, try recording both with and without it and see which you like better. There are other uses for this little box, of course. For those who don't know, electric guitars and basses need what is called a high impedance or high Z input, while most mixers and P.A.'s and recording hardware have low impedance input jacks. Plug an electric guitar or electric bass straight into a mixer for recording and you'll get a very dull, unattractive tone. Put this Behringer DI box in between, and you'll get the clean tone from your guitar on the track, ready for later re-amping or processing through your software guitar amp model. Instead of a mixer or multi-track recorder, you can also use the GI-100 to feed a P.A. system for gigs. Once again you avoid the hassles of micing your amp, and you'll get a cleaner signal into the P.A., free from ambient noise that a mic would pick up. Finally, this GI-100 can convert an unbalanced signal (such as from your electronic keyboard) to a balanced signal to feed your P.A. system. This can reduce hum and electrical interference issues. Likes: The Behringer Ultra G GI-100 does what it's supposed to do, and does it well. And it's so inexpensive that it's an absolute bargain. Dislikes: No on-off switch, so you have to pull the cables after each use (or remove the battery and power it with phantom power from the mixer). The GI-100 has no signal strength meters of any kind, so you have to guess at the signal level coming out of it. Rather than two -20 dB pads, I would have preferred one -20 dB pad and one -10 dB pad for more versatility. Summary: The Behringer Ultra G GI-100 is a very useful little tool that solves several problems in the home studio and for live performance, and does so very inexpensively. -Gnobuddy Review: Great active DI box! - Built like a tank. The cab sim feature is great. I use it for my bass player and sounds awesome. The only thing I would change is adding a light indicator when receiving phantom power. ## Features - Switchable, extremely authentic speaker simulation - Internal battery automatically shut off when phantom power is connected - Direct connection of amplifier outputs with ratings of up to 3,000 Watts - Switchable input attenuation allows input levels of up to +48 dBu - Ground lift switch eliminates typical ground loop problems ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000CCN15M | | Best Sellers Rank | #20,319 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #56 in Recording Signal Direct Boxes | | Brand | Behringer | | Built-In Media | Gi100 Powered Di box | | Color | Red | | Compatible Devices | Guitar | | Connector Type | XLR | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (520) | | Enclosure Material | Metal | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00713757154512 | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 5.91"D x 2.36"W x 5.12"H | | Item Type Name | BEHRINGER | | Item Weight | 1.9 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Music Tribe US | | Mfr Part Number | P0137 | | Model Name | GI100 | | Model Number | GI100 | | Number of Bands | 1 | | Output Channel Quantity | 1 | | Output Wattage | 3000 Watts | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Speaker Size | 12 Inches | | UPC | 713757154512 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Please refer to http://www.

It has two input pads to balance your input level. **Q: What type of cable should i connect from speaker out of my micro terror to the input jack of yhis DI?** A: Whatever cable you would use to connect to an external speaker cabinet should work fine, provided it has a 1/4" plug on the end going to the DI box. Remember that you need a speaker connected through this as well to maintain the expected load on the amp. There is a 1/4" jack on the box for the signal to go directly through and to a speaker, independent of the circuit for sending the signal to the mixer/PA/whatever. This may help, and I'll post it in a couple of places in the string. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/678339/Behringer-Ultra-G-Gi100.html#manual **Q: this would still need to be hooked up to my speaker cabinet pushing sound thro speakers? im assuming this doesnt work as a load box** A: It is a load adapter with a 4 x 12 cabinet simulator. You could send the output to a PA or an Amplifier. It won't drive speakers. **Q: How many hours will it operate from a standard 9V alkaline battery?** A: I don't know but be sure to carry one or two backups in your gig bag ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice D.I. at an unbeatable price *by G***Y on August 24, 2011* What do you do if you have a tube guitar amp that sounds great and you want to get that sound onto your home studio recordings?

The cab sim feature is great. I use it for my bass player and sounds awesome. The only thing I would change is adding a light indicator when receiving phantom power. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Usable DI box, and Explaining the Hum/no hum issue *by N***O on January 16, 2015* I just received this and tested it but felt the need to review to clear up the buzzing/hum issue. First off, this thing feels solidly build. Nothing cheap feeling about it. It mounts in the rear of my rack with velcro tape nicely. The cab sim sounds very good - better than the pod HD cab sims to my ears, which is what I plan to use this box in place of (the lousy pod cab sims) if my power amp dies during a gig.- so this is a backup (for now- more on that later.). Also with this box, i can use my usual pod patches that have no cab sims and just plug into this, using the same patches without having to add cabs to the patches if my power amp were to die at a gig, since i'll then need to go direct to PA - this box will provide the cab model for all my patches. Again the cab sim sounds plenty good on this box.. I plugged my Pod HD unbalanced out into this, and then the bypass on to my power amp, so i am sending this box a line level signal - when used in this manner, it's dead quiet - NO hum. Only when used as a load box, from a power amp speaker out (the manual says this is designed for it if desired) does the box produce hum. If i needed a true load box, i would not expect a $40 box to pull this off, but as a true DI box using a line level signal, it works great, no hum, and the cab sim is excellent. It is promising enough that at my next gig i'm going to try running direct for a set, and compare this setup (pod -> G100 -> PA) to my usual (Pod -> Tube power amp --> V30 loaded guitar cab miced up) for another set and see which sounds better to the sound guy. If this box sounds better, i've got some changes to make on my rig! ## Frequently Bought Together - Behringer Ultra-G GI100 1-Channel Active Guitar Direct Box - Behringer Ultra-DI DI400P 1-Channel Passive Instrument Direct Box - Behringer Ultra-DI DI100 1-channel Active Microphone/Instrument Direct Box --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/5008625-ultra-g-gi100-professional-battery-phantom-powered-di-box-guitar](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/5008625-ultra-g-gi100-professional-battery-phantom-powered-di-box-guitar) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-04-26*
