    USING THE TRIM fUNCTION For situations where a level adjustment is required, the trim control on the LX-2 allows you to attenuate overly hot signals. This lets you drive your mic preamps hard to achieve coloration, while attenuating the level at the LX-2 to avoid clipping the inputs of your recording interface.

    LX-2 has a Jensen transformer in the signal path, which blocks DC voltage and breaks the ground loop. However, the direct output is connected straight through to the input of the LX-2, and you may need to engage the ground lift on this output to disconnect pin-1 on the connector and help remove buzz and hum on this output.
