Balanced signal lines are used to cross larger Preconditions for passive splitting: distances without interference. They are generally The Lehle P-Split II is a passive splitter which fitted with XLR connectors or TRS (Tip Ring Sleeve) can be used to split high-impedance signals to jack plugs. - Page 7 Long cable routings audibly attenuate What is possible: high frequencies.

Page 12: Typical Uses
The Lehle P-Split II operates as a splitter for one instrument to two amps. Use the shortest The Lehle P-Split II as a splitter for two amps cables possible to connect instruments with passive pickups to the input of the Lehle P-Split II. Most musicians find the sound of two amplifiers working in parallel extremely powerful and simply big. -

5. There you go! Note: In the above scenario, the Lehle P-Split II is grounded via the signal source input. In some cas- es, it may be a good idea to connect the ground to the other side, in order to eliminate even more interference. - Page 16 We recommend the use of a buffer between the from an amp while recording the dry signal. instrument and the input of the Lehle P-Split II In this configuration, the Lehle P-Split II again to convert the high-impedance instrument signal functions as a neutral splitter.
