Carretero choses UNiKA PRO-148 Active DI

On-demand Barcelona-based sound engineer, Alex Carretero Salvador, standardises on UNiKA’s PRO Series Active DI

Àlex Carretero has a remarkable client base both Live and in the Studio. His credits as a sound engineer and producer encompass such talents as Shakira, Alizzz, Amaia, Antonio Orozco, Alfred García, Leo Rizzi and many more.

Carretero is always on the lookout for new ways to get better results and so his friend, the respected audio expert Alex Juarez of Spanish distributor 60 X 90 grados, introduced him to UNiKA’s PRO-148 Active DI.

The PRO-148 incorporates a high-performance isolation transformer specially selected for musicality. The input connector is a balanced/unbalanced combo socket – enabling XLRs and ¼” Jack signals – and also features a -20dB pad switch and a ground lift.

Carretero is won-over by his new active DI and comments:
UNiKA’s 148 has become a go-to for bass guitar and acoustic guitars in all my live shows. It sounds clear and big with a deep low-end. For me, one of the best DI boxes on the market, at a very competitive price.“

Mick Brophy, Business Development Manager at Mega Audio adds: “UNiKA took a lot of care auditioning different transformer options for the PRO-Series DIs, Splitters and ISOs. Our aim is to provide our customers with the most musical sound possible at this price point. Thanks so much to Alex Carretero for adopting the 148 as his go-to DI. It is great to have this amazing support.
