    FX-Loop Module LND150 Introduction The Tube-Town FX-Loop is an active effect loop designed as retrofit kit for tube amplifiers for guitar or bass guitar. The module works with the typically high supply voltage in a tube amplifier (DANGER TO LIFE) and is powered by the power supply of the amplifier. By using two LND150, the power consumption is very low.

    FX-Loop before the master volume in a Jim HP amplifier. Other configurations are possible as long as the maximum signal level is not exceeded. We recommend a value of 1,5 MOhm - 2,2 MOhm for R14 on the loop pcb in this configuration. Tube-Town GmbH - www.tube-town.net Seite 9...
  • Page 10: True Bypass

    With an optional switch it is possible to install a true bypass for the effect loop and take it out of the signal chain when not in use. This can also be realized with a relay, for example with the relay switching kit with the article number kit-chsw2-6. Tube-Town GmbH - www.tube-town.net Seite 10...
  • Page 11: Loop In Parallel Mode

    Please note: Some effect units change the phase of the signal. This can lead to phase cancellations if the effect signal is out of phase whit the dry signal. Tube-Town GmbH - www.tube-town.net Seite 11...
