By-Pass/Level Switch; Effects Loop: Return; Footswitch Socket; Loudspeakers - Laney LH50 Operating Instructions Manual

be used to control another LH50 amplifier connected to this socket via its own return socket. Some Effects are better suited
to being between the guitar and amplifer input - these are foot pedal types / distortion / wah wah pedals etc. Rack mount
effects will work better in the FX loop on the amplifer rear. Stomp boxes are normally designed for small signals such as a
guitar output whereas rack mount FX are designed for the higher signal level obtained from an FX send. This socket can also
be used as a Line Level Out.
6 BY-PASS/LEVEL SWITCH: This switch allows the effects loop to be by-passed if not in use, it also gives you the option of
running the FX loop at 0dB (750mV) or at -10dB (250mV) to suit your processor.
EFFECTS LOOP: RETURN: Connect the output from your external effects to this socket. The effects loop allows you to
7
connect external effects such as tremolo's, chorus and delays to your amplifier. All of the signal leaves the amplifier via the
`Send' socket and comes back from the effects via the `Return` socket. Use the output level control on your FX to control
how loud the FX return signal sounds. This is an insert type control, therefore you need to set the Dry/ Wet mix in your FX
processor.
8 FOOTSWITCH SOCKET: Provided for the connection of a Laney FS2 footswitch (optional) .This allows you to remotely
switch between the clean/drive channel and & switch the built in reverb On/Off.
9 LOUDSPEAKERS: Use to connect 4, 8 or 16 ohm extension cabinet/cabinets. Only use one socket at a time.
Please note mismatched impedance will reduce the amplifiers performance and in some cases may cause damage to your
amplifier.
Multiple cabinets are to be daisy chained together: i.e. 2 x 16 Ohm cabinets linked together & pluged into the 8 Ohm socket, or
2 x 8 Ohm cabinets linked together & plugged into the 4 Ohm socket.
See the LH50 Sample set ups, pages 18 & 19, for information on connecting your LH50 to a variety of Laney extension cabinets.
THE AMP MUST NOT BE POWERED UP WITHOUT BEING CONNECTED TO A LOUDSPEAKER SYSTEM
