INTRODUCTION
The iller Line Isolation Box is equipped with a combo socket on the input side, which can be assigned with an XLR or 6.3 mm jack plug. The input allows the connection of playback devices with balanced or unbalanced connections. The balanced line output is equipped with a male XLR socket. There is galvanic isolation between input and output by means of a high-quality transformer. With the help of the ground lift switch to disconnect the ground connection of input and output, hum loops and other interfering signals are effectively eliminated. Audio signals can also be transmitted hum-free over long cable runs with the help of the iller.
CONNECTIONS
- INPUT Line input with combo jack (XLR / 6.3 mm jack) suitable for both unbalanced and balanced cabling. Use a shielded audio cable to connect, for example, a keyboard to the Line Isolation Box.
- OUTPUT Balanced line-out via 3-pin XLR jack. Use a shielded audio cable to connect the Line Isolation Box to a balanced input of a mixing console or audio interface.
- LIFT / GND Switch for disconnecting the ground connection from the input and output (ground lift). In the non-pressed position, the ground connection is disconnected; the connection is established when the switch is pressed. The ability to prevent a humming loop using the ground lift switch depends on the grounding of the connected device. It is therefore possible that the switch is able to effectively reduce or eliminate humming when it is either up or down, depending on circumstances.
CAUTION: Connecting signal cables can cause considerable noise. Please
make sure that the input channels of mixing console and audio interfaces, etc.
are muted when plugged in. Otherwise, noise levels may cause damage.
NOTE: Strong magnetic fields can cause humming. Therefore, do not
position the Line Isolation Box near strong magnetic fields (e.g. mains
transformer).
