Switching Demystified by Lehle Pedals - It doesn't have to be rocket science! 

Yes please! Talk about any new products or anything that wasn’t discussed here. Your products are incredible and this video was so helpful and informative.

I would like you to make a video explaining the functions on the Little Dual 2, I've just got one and I'm trying to figure out if one of the outputs is or can be used as a DI out.

Absolutely

Heck-yeah! I am setting up my first two-amp rig, and this was so helpful.

Thanks Mark Bennett. /Joki

If he had had an engineer as the person he was trying to explain the functions to, this would have been quite a different conversation: (this refers to the content given from 0:00 to about 8:00, so the P-split) - a transformer is not made from a magnet and wires but from a material of high permeability and wires (not magnetic core). Plus the required shielding, of course (MU-metal) - you do not have to have two amps to get a ground loop. It is perfectly sufficient to use a crappy grounded power supply for your pedals. (he touched that one, granted) - "it is not about the level, it is about the impedance". Yeah and this is why this thing (P-split) cannot change the impedance since it is a passive device. It is basically a 1:1 DI box. "And because there is a transformer, the output impedance is not given by the interface". In fact, it is. The output impedance that is feeding the amp is the same impedance that the audio interface provides. All the p-split can do is prevent hum issues. Don't get me wrong: Lehle products rock! I have recommended their products multiple times in the past and NEVER had a problem with them, but explaining stuff technically inaccurately or wrong because the person you are talking to does not have a clue about electronic engineering might make the company look less professional than they actually are.

I don't have a problem with Lee not having a technical appreciation of impedance issues and the impact on signal loss, but I was a little surprised that he was so cheerfully haughty in his ignorance.

That's why engineers suck at consulting :)

Randy Willcox Depends on what your buffering. But the Capt. looked confused for awhile, or was just confusing this guy trying to explain his gear.

Randy Willcox Yes. Sorry, I meant to infer agreeing with you. Do you use a buffer? What kind? I'm curious and been looking into it for my rig.

Sean Ellis Nice. This is the way I've been thinking about doing it. Thanks.

I used to go to a pub where it seems that wee was flying everywhere. Wouldn't want that on a guitar.

can i use 12v in lehle?

Maybe you already read the manual. If not: the Lehle products are supplied with screws. You need to uncover the unit, then you can screw them down internally.

It will fix ground loops that happen when you have more than 1 thing connected to the mains in your signal line. If you have pedals powered by adapter, place one of these between the last pedal and the amp input. Or place a stereo one for the fx loop in and out. Try to use it on short cable runs as you're disconnecting the shielding/earth at one end. Also try to remove any EMI emitting devices or shield them. Things like phones, wall warts, computers, cfl bulbs etc.

Snooze00 Good tip for boosting noise in the treble region. Noise is great.

And sometimes it makes certain pedals do terrible awful things!

Big Muffs sound absolutely horrible if you put a buffer in front of them.

Aice the Fries oh cool! now it makes sense.

Aice the Fries I thought lifting the ground gives everything 1 ground and less noise and the noise come from have multiple grounds.

as long as you're using a ground lift switch, rather than cutting the ground prong off the amp plug....

"Cut off the earth pin in your pedal, have a beer and touch your lips to the microphone" -Mick Taylor on what not to do.

But that's not a problem, isn't it?

MC Runde nah

coz vintage

A transformer is a completely passive element.

emptyMan0 okay thank you for that :D

honestly, that explanation makes enough sense. the full one takes waaay too long.

You are wery felcome! /Joki

You might have missed it: Manual, first page, "General description", point 1: "When the buffer and both loops are on, the signal firstly passes through the buffer, then through Loop A and, finally, through Loop B." Have you ever been in contact with us or just wrote here?

who doesn't ?

Yeah, Wadsmitter is right. It's not 'dumb,' but the idea that it is best to always have true bypass or buffers are bad, or whatever. All that is nonsense because, well, tone/music/sound is relative. But, as Wadsmitter has stated, there are practical benefits of it. Germanium lyf.
