{"product_id":"proco-sound-iface","title":"ProCo Sound IFACE Portable Audio Player Interface to XLR","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe ProCo Sound iFACE is built for FOH engineers and production teams who regularly need to route consumer audio sources — laptops, MP3 players, iPods, CD and DVD players — into professional mixing consoles without introducing noise or ground loop interference. Rather than relying on passive direct boxes that may not handle stereo consumer outputs cleanly, the iFACE provides purpose-built interfacing with both a 3.5mm stereo mini input and discrete left\/right RCA phono inputs, giving engineers flexibility with any portable source device.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat separates the iFACE from generic DI solutions is its use of ProCo Sound MBT-1 Microphone Bridging Transformers on the outputs. These audiophile-grade transformers are magnetically shielded in mu-metal cans and electrostatically isolated with dual Faraday shields, delivering near-ideal rejection of RFI, EMI, SCR dimmer interference, and 60 Hz hum. The result is a clean, low-distortion signal on balanced XLR male outputs suitable for direct connection to any console's mic preamp input.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor installations and live events where grounding conditions vary between portable battery-operated sources and house AC systems, the onboard GROUND LIFT switch resolves hum and buzz without rewiring. A MONO switch provides passive input summing when a dual-mono feed is required from either XLR output. The Uni-Box enclosure — extruded aluminum sides with 16-gauge steel panels — protects all connectors and switches from stage-level abuse while adding a further layer of magnetic shielding to the internal circuitry.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rapco-Horizon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51443951206584,"sku":"70167","price":370.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0871\/7382\/4696\/files\/70167_ProCo-iFace-Portable-Audio-Player-Interface_ALT01.jpg?v=1783627346","url":"https:\/\/soundpro.com\/products\/proco-sound-iface","provider":"SoundPro","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
