Can the LX II be used as two 50w mono amps separately so I can make use two GPDI-IRs? I love the amp, but there’s no channel switching and it needs more power for gigs. This seemed like a possible solution coupled with an isolated 1-in, 2-out switcher such as my Mesa Switch-Track. That said, I’m open to other suggestions for the front end and any ideas alternative to my dual mono LX II (hopeful) idea to achieve this. The GPDI-IR is a fantastic amp. So many uses, but as basic amp/preamp to just play - it’s so killer. I use a single unit on jazz duo gigs to full blown rock gigs (with a PS-100). It’s so good I’m willing to get a second one for a clean/crunch rig and drives for each amp to get to other gain stages.
It’s a stereo / bridged mono power amp with separate inputs and outputs. So, kind of. It does not have separate volume controls for each I/O set. So, the technical answer to your question is no. But I’m not sure you care about that. You want to input two GPDI/IRs into each channel and amplify them to separate cabinets and switch between them. You can do that. You just will need to control your volume balancing on the GPDI/IR side since you can’t do it on the LXII side.
Right. All that. I guess I’m fishing to see if there’s a technical issue lurking the in shadows that would cause a noise issue. Namely, a ground loop. Another question is whether or not I can mismatch cabinets. Meaning, one side have an 8ohm load and the other have 16, for example.
Sure did. I always read the manual before asking questions. It doesn’t address the application specifically. I’m confident my theories will work. Always good to get secondary takes on them though. Thanks man.
