Gold-plated relay and switch contacts.
The signal from the pickups of an electric guitar and bass is so weak that poor-quality cables,
cold joints and cheap contact m aterials ruin your sound.
Switch contact need to be made of special materials to permit loss-free switching of these low-level signals.
All Lehle switchers feature special relays and slide switches with gold-plated contacts for totally reliable,
absolutely zero-loss switching. |
|
The Lehle LTHZ transformer.
Hum loops and phase cancellations can occur as soon as the signal from an instrumentis fed to more amp simultaneously.
The one and only remedy for this is a high-quality transformer.
Standard transformers modify the tone of electric guitars and basses very severely,
since they are not designed to handle the low-strength high-impedance signals generated by instrument pickups.
The lehle LTHZ, on the other hand, has been specifically conceived for use with these high-impedance signal,
preserving intrument tone and the interaction between instrument and amp and eliminating hum loops. |
|
Goodbye to hum loops.
All Lehle products not featuring an LTHZ transformer and bearing this symbol switch the signal ground parrallel
to the signal itself via switches or relays with gold-plated contacts.
Hum loops are thus effectively eliminated when switching backwards and forwards between different signal sources without,
for example, simultaneous activation of two amps. |
|
Stereo.
Many effects units feature stereo outputs.
Or: instruments frequently have two pickup systems, e.g. a combination of conventional magnetic and Piezo types,
to emulate an acoustic sound. Lehle accessories are ideal for trouble-free routing of such dual-channel stereo signals.
All stereo-capable Lehle products are, of course suitable for mon operation. |
|
Transmit and recieve MIDI.
All products in the Second Generation of Switching (SGoS) range are programmable
and can be networked with each other via MIDI program-change commands.
External MIDI equipment can also be integrated without difficulty.
Programming is intuitive, and is quick and easy to learn. |
|
Adjustable gain.
Adjustments of volume ar distirtion using a gain controller is a vital feature in many situations.
The gain controller on the corresponding Lehle products feature black anodized aluminium knobs set
back into the housing so that they can be easily fingertip rotated but
keep their settings during performance and transportation. |
|
18V.
To exploit the dynamics of tube amplifiers to the full, the input voltage of Lehle products
bearing this symbol is rectified from the power supply socket, the filtered, stablized and doubled to 18V. |

Lehle Basswitch IQ DI |
|
The Basswitch IQ DI bass preamp opens up new dimensions in bass signal amplification and routing and offers an ''all-in-one'' solution whether
used in stand-alone mode or as the control centre of a pedal-board.
The basswitch IQ DI features an A/B-input switcher, a high quality bass preamp, a clean booster, a parametric EQ, an FX Loop
switcher and last but not least a professional quality D.I. box. The switchable input impedance guarantees an optimal treatment of the
signal whether it comes from a magnetic or a piezo pick-up.
German manufacturing and best brand components warrant maximum reliability and optimal treatment of the electrical signal from your instrument.
Uncompromising in sound, flexibility and manufacturing the Basswitch IQ DI bass preamp gives the professional user the certainty to be adequately
and optimally prepared for any situation, be it in a live performance or in a recording situation.
The Basswitch IQ DI bass preamp is the Swiss Army knife that should be part of the equipment of every demanding bass player.
FEATURES:
* A/B input switcher.
If two instruments are connected to Input A and B, the A/B footswitch permits toggling between the two inputs of the bass preamp,
whereby the signal from input ''Instrument A'' is routed to Channel A of the pedal and the signal from input ''Instrument B''
is routed to Channel B. If only one instrument is connected to ''Instrument A'' the A/B footswitch routes this signal to Channel A or Channel.
This allows to call off per footswitch either an adequate sound setting for the second instrument or to make available a second
sound setting for one instrument for instance for slapping or when changing from finger style to plectrum playing.
* High-end bass preamp with parametric EQ.
The Basswitch IQ DI features a high-end bass preamp and a four band EQ with double semi- parametric mids specifically designed for bass instruments.
* FX Looper
The Basswitch IQ DI offers two effect loops, a passive serial loop and a switchable infinitely variable mixing loop, that enables you to go
from a completely dry signal, via parallel to serial looping. A phase-inverter ensures that any out of phase signals do not
cancel each other out in parallel mode. Additionally a Tuner Out keeps the tuner out of the signal path.
* Clean booster
A footswitch and a volume control allow you to add a second high-end amplification stage upstream of the Mix Loop.
This allows to provide tracking - or overdrive/distortion pedals with an adequate input signal. If the Mix Loop
is not in use, the booster serves as a real clean solo booster.
* D.I. box
The Basswitch IQ DI bass preamp can be used to send the output signal directly to a mixing console. The high-quality
components and features of the Basswitch IQ DI (high-end preamp, Lehle transformer, ground-switch, pre/post signal-processing switch,
pad for output attenuation, rugged construction) make the Basswitch IQ DI bass preamp an excellent D.I. box, be it in a live setting or in the studio.
* Line-Mixer
Although the Basswitch IQ DI bass preamp was not originally designed for this application, it can also be used as a line mixer. To do this,
the return socket of the Mix Loop is used as input and the ratio of this signal to the signals coming from inputs A and B is adjusted by
using the mix control.

Lehle Sunday Driver |
|
The Lehle Sunday Driver is a high end preamp with a convenient compact format.
It features JFET-based circuitry and provides two modes of operation, with selection via a mode selector
switch with gold-plated contacts: ''D'' stands for Driver; in this mode, the guitar signal is amplified,
with absolutely no modification, at the input impedance of a guitar amp, efficiently eliminating losses
on the route through leads and effects; the signal remains strong and clear, retaining its full dynamics.
The second setting ''S'' - as in Sunday - multiplies input impedance by four, bringing out previously
inaudible details and, as gain increases, imparting to the guitar sound a characteristic and unmistakable
warmth that has given this preamp its name - the result is a sound as mellow as a sunny Sunday afternoon!
Even at a 15dB gain setting, the Lehle Sunday Driver always stays clean and absolutely free of background noise,
thanks to its studio-standard signal-to-noise ratio of over -100 dB.
To exploit the dynamics of tube amplifiers to the full, the input voltage is also rectified from the
power supply socket, then filtered, stabilized and doubled to 18V.
With its broad output range of 20 to 100,000 Hz, the Lehle Sunday Driver,
powered by a standard 9V (PP3) battery, can be used anywhere, whether as a cable driver for stadium and other large stages,
in complex effects set-ups, or as a recording preamp - and not just Sundays!.

Lehle Sunday Driver SW |
|
The Lehle Sunday Driver SW is a compact-format high-end preamp for all types of electrical and acoustic
instruments - a preamp that enables electric guitars and basses, acoustic guitars, and also other stringed instruments (such as violins,
cellos and double basses) to realize all of their musical potential. The switchable version expands the classical Lehle Sunday Driver's features
by an On/Off footswitch.
The Lehle Sunday Driver SW, with its high-quality JFET technology, provides two operating modes. In D (= Driver) mode, the input signal is amplified
with zero modification, to eliminate the signal losses that long cable routings and/or effects chains can cause. The signal remains powerful and clear,
and retains its dynamics. Mode S (= Sunday) multiplies input impedance by four, bringing out previously inaudible details and, as gain increases,
imparting to the guitar a characteristic and unmistakable warmth. There is no distortion at any stage, and the signal always stays clean, even at a
maximum gain setting of 15 dB. Thanks to its studio-standard signal-to-noise ratio of better than -100 dB, the Lehle Sunday Driver SW is totally
free of background noise. To exploit the dynamics of tube amplifiers to the full, the input voltage is also rectified from the power supply socket,
then filtered, stabilized and doubled to 18V.
In OFF status, the Lehle Sunday Driver SW provides two different modes of operation - in TB (= True Bypass) mode, the input and output are linked
with zero losses to one another via a switch with gold-plated contacts. True Bypass mode is the best option for a small set-up with short cable routings
and for when a treble-booster or a classical fuzz pedal is looped in after the Lehle Sunday Driver SW. The line-driver function, located at the start
of the train or in an effect chain, is the better solution for long cables and for complex effect board configurations. Switch the Lehle Sunday Driver
SW to TS (= True Sound) mode, and it is active as a buffer, without amplifying or modifying the signal in any way. In this mode, the Lehle Sunday Driver
SW operates as a totally neutral line-driver - equivalent to Mode D with the gain pot turned all the way to the left. The Bypass mode option enables
the Lehle Sunday Driver SW to integrate ideally into any set-up, whether as a battery-operated stand-alone unit, or in an existing pedal board.
