Samson

A sound engineer said the DI box only brings a level down, and won't bring it up to produce a stronger signal. I thought what DI boxes do is increase a low signal to a high signal. Who's right?

This small mixer provides six phantom-powered mic preamps, two aux sends, and up to 16 inputs at mixdown.

The performance of Samson's new project-studio speakers shifts up a gear courtesy of brand-new ribbon-tweeter technology.

When you think of headphones, Samson might not be the first name that springs to mind, but their top-of-the-range Z55 might surprise you.

This new small-diaphragm mic provides a good upgrade path for home studios currently working with just dynamic models.

If you want the simplest possible computer recording setup, it doesn't come much more straightforward than this: a mic that plugs straight into your Mac or PC's USB ports.

Designed for musicians on the move, this portable PA offers a wide range of uses for almost any gigging scenario.

Despite being aimed at the budget-conscious home-studio user, these speakers boast a ribbon tweeter.

Obviously, a good multimedia system is better than a bad one, but will a good one be adequate in a home studio?
