XLR In
Balanced +4dB line level input is used to receive the audio signal from the recorder. Follows AES standard with pin-1 ground, pin-2 hot (+), pin-3 cold (-).
Ground
Lifts pin-1 ground on the XLR input, diverting the ground connection to the ¼” OUT-1.
Power
15VDC 400mA power supply connection for the supplied external supply.
No Slip Pad
Neoprene isolation pad provides electrical isolation from the chassis and mechanical insulation from rough handling.
Power LED
Automatically illuminates when the power supply is connected. Lets you know the X-Amp is on and ready to use.
Level
Lets you adjust the X-Amp output level going to the amplifiers.
Clip LED
Provides visual cue of input signal. When this light goes on, turn down the source! You are overloading the X-Amp input circuit.
Out-1
Direct buffered output is used to feed your first amp. This should be a properly grounded amp that has passed local safety approvals.
180º Polarity
Reverses the absolute phase on output 2 so that both amplifiers play in phase. It can also be used to create different effects.
Out-2
Transformer isolated output is used to feed your second amp while eliminating ground loops.
Connector
Nylon XLR connector with extra large nickel-silver pin contacts. Tougher than steel.
100% Discrete
Full sized parts are hand inserted to deliver the very best audio quality. Class-A circuit design for pure tone.
Transformer
Provides 100% isolation to eliminate hum and noise caused by ground loops.
Ground Lift
Applies to guitar amp output 2 - provides alternate ground path if needed or can help eliminate ground loops.
Circuit Board
Double-sided military spec for greater durability and full ground plane to reduce radio frequency interference.
14-Gauge Steel
I-Beam construction prevents circuit board from torque which could lead to part failure.
