LX-2™ Line Splitter User Guide

OVERVIEW
The LX-2 has a single XLR/TRS INPUT con-
nector, an ISO OUTPUT with a ground lift
switch, and a DIRECT THRU output with a
ground lift switch. You can connect any line-
level signal to the INPUT, and use the ISO
OUTPUT to feed a recording device, broad-
cast truck, or mixing console. The ISO OUT-
PUT is equipped with a premium Jensen™
transformer, which provides exceptional
signal handling and low noise, while also
blocking DC voltage to help eliminate buzz
and hum from ground loops. This output also
features a ground lift switch that disconnects
the ground path between the input and out-
put to further reduce ground loop noise. The
DIRECT THRU output can be used to feed
an additional mixer or another destination,
with a separate ground lift switch for noise
abatement. Should you fi nd the need to at-
tenuate a high-output signal, a variable TRIM
control can be engaged to provide an acces-
sible level adjustment, allowing you to tame
hot console outputs or preamps and prevent
distortion at your input devices.
