New features include an intelligent true-bypass relay circuit with active pop suppression.
Voerde, Germany (August 27, 2019) -- The Lehle Little Dual II is the successor to the Lehle Little Dual and is a maximum signalfidelity amp switcher for two amps. By using the soft-touch switches you can switch between two connected amplifiers hum-free and without sound loss. The Lehle-Switches work with a microcontroller and an intelligent True-Bypass-Relay-Circuit with active pop noise suppression circuit. Thereby they switch the Lehle Little Dual II even faster than mechanical switches and in addition to that wear-and noise-free.
The centrepiece of the Lehle Little Dual II is its high-end Lehle Transformer HZ, which galvanically isolates output A from output B, making history of hum loops - permanently! Additionally the Lehle Little Dual II is equipped with a TRS switch. Therewith it is possible to send in above-mentioned stereo- or dual-mono signals via a TRS jack or “stereo-jack”.
These signals can be operated either in alternation or in parallel - without hum, and without sound losses, needless to say. The Lehle Little Dual II - small, but so utterly effective!
- ABY switcher (A or B or both)
- Hum and noise-free switching
- High-impedance Lehle Transformer HZ
- Phase and ground switch
- Two different operating modes
- Stereo-routing option
- Active pop suppression circuit

The Lehle P-Split III combines passive splitting with the highest possible signal fidelity. Its applications range from splitting signals and eliminating hum, to balancing and reamplification along with any signal routing that requires a clean signal free from noise.
At its core is the high-end Lehle Transformer HZ, which galvanically isolates the two outputs, eliminating any possibility of ground loops. The Lehle Transformer HZ was specially designed for use with high-impedance signals but also splits low-impedance signals with uncompromisingsound quality. The signal can be picked off either symmetrically or asymmetrically from the ISO output.
- Passive splitter and DI box
- Absolutely no signal loss or hum
- High-impedance Lehle Transformer HZ
- Phase and ground switch
- Suitable for balanced or unbalanced signals

A parallel effects mixer that offers mono or stereo operation, two different modes, and independent gain control for each loop.
Swindon, England (May 24, 2019) -- TheGigRig – manufacturer of world-leading guitar and bass effects switching systems and power supplies – announces the Wetter Box Parallel Effects Mixer. It’s the latest in the company’s innovative line of professional-grade signal routing solutions designed to help musicians create inspirational sounds and music.
“The tones you can create by blending different effects in parallel is epic!” says the company’s head, Daniel Steinhardt. “Years ago, we had a simple mixer called the Wet Box that solved a handful of problems for musicians wanting to mix effects into their signal chain, rather than take over that signal chain completely. With the Wetter Box, we’ve taken that basic idea and added an expanded feature set to increase its scope massively. You can use it as part of your pedalboard or in your amp’s effects loop; your recording signal chain… basically anywhere you want to blend effects.”
Why would you want to blend effects? “First and foremost for cool new sounds! Imagine a fuzz and an overdrive mixed in parallel, where you could have the exact blend of each that you like. Drives and modulations, filters and fuzz etc – literally anything you want to blend!”
“Secondly, it also functions as an awesome analogue dry-through when using digital effects and/or amplifier effects loops: you’re blending effects on top of your core sound, not obliterating it with them. This is particularly useful for getting effects blend levels just right for your situation, controlled on the fly with an expression pedal if you want. Thirdly, there’s a practical benefit for anyone who wants to leave their effects back by the amp but still have expression-pedal control or remote switching at the front of the stage.”
Features:
- 100% analogue signal path
- Mono or stereo operation, both in and out
- Two modes: Blend Mode (blend from A to B) or Mix Mode (blend B on top of A)
- Works with expression pedal (WBX-1 sold separately)
- Independent gain control for both loops
- Phase reverse for Loop B
- True Bypass or Trails Bypass modes
- Works at signal or line level (for amp FX loop etc)
- TheGigRig OptoKick footswitch: extremely rugged!
- Remote switching option using any latching quarter-inch cable/switch
