ART Splitcom Pro 2 Way Microphone Splitter and Combiner, Monitor

I use this for voiceover and A/B comparison (trying out a processor/preamp). I was looking at other options (JS-2 at a premium price) but I saw this in regular use at a well-known cartoon studio I worked in and decided to give the ART ProSplit a try.I've not detected any colorization of my mic audio and zero noise/hum/distortion added from inserting this box into my signal flow. I've never needed the ground lift or input pad.It's an EXCELLENT value for what I've gotten out of it.I go from my mic into the ART; then into my USB audio interface with one channel set to nominal levels and channel 2 set to -12 lower. When recording at home, I arm and record two separate channels. That way I can record or stream important takes to another studio or my DAW software. If I get too loud I can usually rescue any clipping in my DAW using clean channel 2 audio, sans clipping. This comes in handy with video game and cartoon projects where whispers and screams can range pretty widely in a take. It's already saved my bacon!

Works great splitting mic signal without noise.Perfect

Inexpensive solution to a simple problem. We have noticed that the volume of one mic is affected by the on/off state the other (both wireless mics) when using the combiner, but that's not really an issue for us.

Great item for the price. Works as stated.

Clear labelling of input/outputs to connect in a hurry. Solid case.Does the job perfectly to have 1 condenser mic powered by a 24v phantom source whilst sending 2 signals out, one to my pre-amp/compressor then into channel 1 of my audio interface & the other directly to channel 2 of my audio interface as a backup tracking/recording.

When used as a splitter, there is humming present on at least one side (I had one side going to a PA and another to a recording device with phantom power). The noise worried me so I quickly unplugged one side. I had originally wanted to be able to leave both sides plugged in at all times, but I'm pretty sure that would be a mistake since true isolation wouldn't cause a hum and I fear damaging equipment. Now I mainly use it as a way to easily change the destination of the signal by switching out cables at the device instead of the microphone. This device is an improvement for my setup, but I'm not positive it was worth the price. I've never used it as a combiner and have no insight as to that functionality.

I used this with a Presonus rack mount system and JBL Subs/Mains. The way I utilized this is I sent an AUX feed to this unit, then split it to each of the subs. This way I could only send the low stuff (Bass Drum, Toms, Bass, Keyboards) to that channel. This kept all of the bottom end out of the mains which really helped keep the sound super clean and crisp. No more muddy stuff over the vocals and guitars. I highly recommend.

I am using this to create my own personal monitor system (tired of haggling with the sound guys for the proper levels. I split my mic with it and send through a preamp to my wireless transmitter. This device works perfectly. No interference, sound quality is great and no detectable signal loss. If I were going to improve it I would say perhaps they could make the labeling a bit clearer because in a low light gig environment it is a little difficult to read, but overall a very good product.
