Lfalex v1.1 Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 This appears to be a useful unit, as I can use it to switch between 2 preamps (in a rack) and a clean bypass. The issue lies in cabling. To have the LS2 near me means 4x 10' cables; An expensive and messy rat's nest. If I place it nearer the rack, the LS2 will be too far away (in a rehearsal or stage environment) Ideally, I'd have it near the rack and be able to use a remote footswitch (I've a spare FS5U) Is there a way that the LS2 can be modded to allow the use of an external switch? Alternatively, is there another unit (? Rackmountable) that can offer the same plethora of switching options via a remote footswitch?

Downunderwonder Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Good luck. If it was me I'd make a snake for it. Even if you remote switched it you'd still have two cables, one multi strand for your remote and one for your bass. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrDinsdale Posted August 9, 2023 Share Posted August 9, 2023 Maybe a midi controlled loop switcher? Think Disaster Area do a small loop switcher and a dual midi footswitch you could configure to toggle and bypass. Not sure what the max length of a midi cable is but I'm sure it would suffer less from distances than audio. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
