Lehle Parallel SW II: Versatile True-Bypass Mono/Stereo Effects Mixer for Guitarists

The LEHLE PARALLEL SW II is a versatile, high-quality effects mixer designed to seamlessly blend effects into your original signal, either before an amplifier or within its effects loop. With its advanced features, you can adjust send and return levels independently, and precisely balance the effects signal to the original using the mix controller. All connections are stereo, facilitating the integration of stereo effects pedals into your signal path. The LEHLE PARALLEL SW II’s discrete Class A input stages with JFET technology accommodate a wide range of instruments, from electric guitars and basses to keyboards, handling both high-impedance and low-impedance signals with a broad frequency response of 20 to 100,000 Hz. Notably, it now supports combining mono and stereo signals, allowing you to incorporate effects pedals with mono inputs and stereo outputs without limitation. This mixer’s high dynamic range enables the blending of rack-mount studio effects with low-impedance line level into your guitar signal or inserting level-adjusted effects pedals into an amplifier’s effects loop. Powered by a rectified, filtered, and stabilized input voltage, the LEHLE PARALLEL SW II is optimized to work with tube amplifiers. The LEHLE-Switch technology, featuring a microcontroller and intelligent True-Bypass relay circuit with active pop suppression, allows for fast, noise-free switching without wear. The product’s durability is further enhanced by its design, where the footswitch is mounted in the cover, reducing mechanical stress on the electronics. With three operating modes – latching, momentary, and mixed – the LEHLE PARALLEL SW II offers the flexibility to create varied effects, from simple on/off switching to rhythmic stutter effects. This enables musicians to focus on their music while the device handles signal management.
