Get the most out of your mic preamps. Use your preamps as line-level saturation devices, or pad their output so you can drive them harder.

The L2P is a two-channel, balanced line/mic pad with two attenuation options. The -10dB setting is perfect for padding the output of mic preamps so you can run them hot without clipping your converters. The -30dB setting is a "line-to-mic" pad that allows you to run tracks directly from your audio interface or mixer to the inputs of your preamps.

Features:

  • Selectable -10dB or -30dB pads
  • Two channels
  • Excellent matching between channels for stereo operation
  • Line-to-mic pad 
Input Impedance 8.1k/5.5k (line out / mic out)
Output Impedance 2.7k/150
Attenuation 10dB/30dB, selectable
Noise Floor -113dBu/-115dBu (line out / mic out)

    Couldn't be happier, super grateful in Australia

    As a long-time musician realising the joys of tinkering, audio engineering, live sound, recording and self-producing, DIYRE RULES. Peterson explains everything really well, prices are great, device's simplicity, ruggedness and functionality show a lot of thought and care for the end-user and the transparency is incredibly refreshing. Nothing proprietary here, baby!! I use my Re-Amp box for pedals/synths/weird gear every day and the Line Attenuator has been super handy for hot signals in my growing home studio. I plan on soldering together my own D-Sub loom to play around with the Passive Mixer down the track, too many rewarding projects to count!

    Get after it, you won't regret it!

    Simple and effective

    Brings down a line level signal to mic level. Easy build with very good instructions. If I can solder and assemble this, you can too heh.

    Great little utility box!

    Easy to build, great instructions (like all DIYRE products here). Does exactly what it says it will do. Great for attenuating line level signals down so that you can mix through preamps that don’t have their own attenuation. If you are doing any hybrid mixing/mastering this is super handy to have!

    Super Useful Tool for Modern DAWs

    I have 5 of these little boxes and they do a great job of allowing you to get stereo pairs out of your DAW and into some preamps. A secret shortcut for young players. Super easy build, even for someone who might be a first time DIYer.
