1. Input socket
Connect your instrument or the Send output of
your amplifier to this socket.
The Lehle Parallel M has a high-impedance in-
put and can therefore accept both low-impedance
and high-impedance signals of all types, so that
you can plug in virtually any instrument you like:
electrical and acoustic stringed instruments, such
as electric guitars and basses, acoustic guitars and
all types of stringed instruments, and also the low-
impedance signals from computers, keyboards
and mixers.
If you want to use your Lehle Parallel M to
inject an external effect into the serial effects loop
of your amplifier, connect the Send output of the
amplifier to this input socket.
Note: In battery mode, the battery circuit is auto-
matically activated when a cable is connected to
the input socket so always „pull the plug” when
you’ve finished your session, or are taking a
longer break!
2. U/B-mode switch
Set this switch correspondingly, depending on
whether you want a balanced or an unbalanced
signal at the Send output (3).
For an unbalanced signal on the Send socket (3),
set the gold-contact switch to the „U” (for „unbal-
anced”) position, and to the „B” (for „balanced”)
position for a balanced signal.
The mode switch should be set to „U” if normal
(pedal-type) effect units are connected to the Send
socket (3), since these devices generally have an
unbalanced input. Mixers, stage boxes and A/D
converters generally have balanced inputs, so you
should then set the mode switch to „B”.
3. Send socket
Connect the input of your effect unit or the input
of your target device (e.g. mixer, computer, etc.) to
this socket.
If you’re using the Lehle Parallel M for parallel
effect loops, connect the Send socket to the input
of the effect unit. The Send socket can also be
used as a DI output in order to route the signal to
the input of a mixer or an A/D converter or sound
card. The intensity of the signal available on the
Send socket can be controlled using the ap-
partenant controller (8).
