PALMER AUDIO PEABI MI EABI – Balanced Line Input Switch

 User's manual [1,27 MB]

The Palmer PEABI is more than a simple switcher for two sources; simultaneously, the PEABI also handles level adjustment for various sources. Whether microphone or line signal, the PEABI toggles silently between the two inputs and thus permits fast and simple comparison between signals or connection of various sources to one input. Three slide switches make it possible to select various attenuation levels (6, 15 or 21 dB attenuation) individually for both inputs. A ground lift helps to avoid ground loop hum. Housed in a solid metal case with extended edges for optimum protection of the in- and outputs. A red LED clearly indicates which input is currently active. Pre-drilled holes permit simple and secure mounting in a rack or on a pedal board. The PEABI's strictly passive circuitry means that it requires no power supply at all. A 9-volt block battery is required to power the LED.

The Palmer TINO SYSTEM - The clever solution for switching two amps to 1 cabinet

Ambitious guitarists often use two amplifiers in order to obtain different basic sounds. However, transport, space restrictions and the decrease in output associated with PA speakers can be very inconvenient. This is where TINO SYSTEM promises to help. The switcher system allows you to use two amplifiers with only one box as an alternative. Regardless of whether you use tube amplifiers that require getting a load, or transistor models. Even a mixed combination is possible without any problems.

The switch-over between the amplifiers can be operated via a pressure switch on the device or via an optional standard foot switch or switching system. If the switch cannot be done with a switching system, a standard foot switch can be connected to the corresponding 6.3 mm jack. (Requires a switch, not push-buttons!)

TINO SYSTEM routes the guitar signal to the chosen amplifier, while the second unused amplifier is turned off to prevent unwanted interference. (As if the potentiometer on the guitar was switched off). The gain from the instrument input to output is one (Unity Gain). The built-in buffer only converts the impedance, so that a high-impedance guitar becomes less prone to interference. When the guitar signal is switched, the speaker is switched simultaneously, while the speaker output from the mute amplifier is connected to a load (Dummy Load). Therefore, tube amplifiers are absolutely safe from dangerous idling.

If you connect two amplifiers with one another, a heavy buzzing sound often overlays the guitar signal. This undesirable effect is known as ground loop and occurs between mains-operated devices because of double grounding. The TWO IN ONE prevents this from happening by decoupling the outputs to the amplifiers using high-quality isolating repeaters. A sliding switch-over between the amplifiers also ensures that the process occurs click-free and without interruption. The power supply is provided via the supplied 9V power adapter.

This simple but robust single-channel switch can be used universally. Whenever a change of channel or function via foot switch is required. For example, the PF1 can be used to switch the channel of a guitar amp or activate a particular function on a keyboard. The switch is latching, not spring return. To connect, a standard Mono Jack cable is sufficient.
