INPUT/OUTPUT JACK PANEL
HOW TO USE LOOPS
The loop of the LB-2 can be used in a various ways. The signal path when the loop is ON/OFF is shown as a solid line and a dotted line in each setting.
As Effect Loop
Feed signals to the IN terminal and connect from the SEND terminal to effects
unit’s input. Connect from the effects unit’s output to the RETURN terminal,
then from the OUT terminal to a device that is placed downstream.
As Output Selector
The LB-2 can be use as an output selector to choose one of two outputs. Feed
signals to the IN terminal and connect from the SEND terminal to the input of
an amplifier, etc. The RETURN terminal should be left unplugged. Connect from
the OUT terminal to the input of another amplifier, etc. When the loop is
turned on and the output 1 is selected, the output 2 is muted to
preventcrosstalk or noise. Conversely, by turning off the loop and selecting
the output 2, the output 1 is muted.
As Input Selector
The LB-2 can be used as an input selector to choose one of two inputs. Input 2
signal fed to the RETURN terminal is supplied from the OUT terminal when the
loop is turned on. By turning off the loop, input 1 signal fed to the IN
terminal is supplied from the OUT terminal. The SEND terminal should be left
unplugged.
As Amplifier’s Send/Return Effect Loop
Connect from an amplifier’s send to the LB-2% IN terminal and then from the LB-Zs SEND terminal to an effects unit’s input. Connect from the effects unit’s output to the LB-Zs RETURN terminal and from the LB-2’s OUT terminal to the amplifier’s return input. Since the grounds of LOOP1 and LOOP2 are isolated, LOOP1 can be used as an effect loop between your guitar and amplifier, and LOOP2 as an amplifier’s send/return effect loop.
As Stereo Effect Loop
The LB-2 can be used as a single loop box for a device supporting stereo
operation, assuming LOOP1 is for Left channel and LOOP2 for Right channel.
Note that the IN/OUT terminal of each loop does not support a standard TRS
plug, you need to use a standard mono plug.
As Mute Box
The LB-2 can be used as a mute box that cut the signal fed to the IN terminal
from the OUT terminal, The output from the OUT terminal is muted when the loop
is turned on. The SEND and RETURN terminals should be left unplugged.
