The Palmer ilm is a speaker simulation DI box that eliminates all the vagaries of amp miking such as mic selection, acoustic environment and positioning. With a sophisticated filter circuit that simulates the sound behaviour of a loudspeaker, it captures your sound authentically, without a mic. Your direct signal always sounds the same, whether at home, in the (home) studio, in the rehearsal room or on stage, no matter what size.
The Palmer ilm offers three sound presets that reproduce typical guitar cabinet models. We leave flowery names to others; with the Palmer ilm they are simply called "normal", "mellow" and "bright". So everyone knows what is meant!
The DI box is usually looped in between the amp output and the loudspeaker; however, it can also be operated at the line
The ilm is balanced by a transformer to prevent noise when connected to a mixing console or audio interface. Ground loops can be eliminated via the ground lift switch. You can always rely on the Palmer ilm - and concentrate on what really counts: Your music and your instrument.
