The Whirlwind LBS is a versatile, ruggedly built in-line device that balances and isolates a single line level signal, or allows a line level signal to feed two destinations. Transformer balancing and isolation is available for one or both of the outputs. The balancing provides the necessary noise rejection when in use with equipment having unbalanced outputs, feeding equipment with balanced inputs.

The transformer isolation built into the LBS helps eliminate the unwanted hum and buzz caused by power line and grounding problems. In ISO mode, the signal is passed directly through to one output, and transformer-isolated to the second output. In SPLIT mode, the signal is transformer-isolated to both outputs, with a resulting 6dB drop in level at each output. The unit is equipped with a ground lift switch for each output.

        I use this product to boost a keyboard signal. Tried it on acoustic guitar and worked just as well. It is quiet, and the boost is amazing. I highly recommend this balancer/splitter to anyone that is looking for a little boost in their signal.

              Comments about Whirlwind LBS - 1x2 Line Balancer and Splitter:

              I used this to be able to record on Pro Tools LE w/o latency. One signal went to "tape" and one to a mixing board for monitoring.

              The signal sounded the same after being split. The level was the same. It did what it's supposed to do.
