of contact crossings on connectors and sockets,
these sound losses can even occur if the effects
pedals are equipped with a True Bypass. It’s easy
to get an idea of how much sound you’re losing
- firstly connect your instrument directly to the am-
plifier, and then via the effects rig up. This sound
loss can be eliminated by positioning your Lehle
Sunday Driver as a line-driver before the
effects cascade in the signal path.
What to do:
1. Connect your instrument to the Input socket (1)
of the Lehle Sunday Driver.
2. Connect the first effect device in the serial chain to
the Send socket (3) of the Lehle Sunday Driver.
3. Switch the S/D selector (2) in the D position, for
“Driver“.
4. Turn the Gain controller (5) to the left limit (“7
o’clock position“).
5. Done!
Notes:
The sound characteristics of some effects (e.g.
Treble Booster, Fuzz, Vintage Chorus and Vintage
Echo) may be modified by positioning the Lehle
Sunday Driver before them in the line. The
remedy in such cases is to use one or more Little
Lehle II or Lehle D.Loop SGoS, so that the
effects can be switched passively and without loss
into the signal path, thus retaining their true sound
characteristics.
Hum loops occurring between individual effects
from the effects cascade, or also in conjunction
with an amplifier, can be eliminated by using a
Lehle P-Split II, which, thanks to the Lehle
LTHZ high end transformer, causes electrical
isolation of the signal.
