Description: The Right Way to Mix with Guitar Pedals Use the Analog Alien EPI Effects Pedal Interface to use your favorite guitar effects pedals for mixing in a studio environment — or even in live sound applications. Matching instrument-level effects boxes with line-level signal flows normally requires a few different devices to properly match signal levels and preserve fidelity, but not when you have the EPI. With dual send and return loops for your effects pedals, balanced output for recording interfaces or mixing consoles, and guitar-level inputs and outputs, the Analog Alien EPI Effects Pedal Interface allows you to use your guitar pedals as studio-quality effects processors.Smart solution for much more than effects Use it as a DI Connect your guitar or bass to the instrument input on the Analog Alien EPI, then connect the thru jack to your amplifier.

You can use the balanced XLR output to connect directly to a mixing console or recording interface. Re-amp tracks from your DAW Route a dry guitar or bass track to a balanced output on your audio interface, and connect it to the EPI's balanced input. Connect the buffered guitar output to your amplifier of choice, mic it up, and you're ready to re-amp tracks from your DAW. Record with your effects pedals Regardless of your recording style, you can use the Analog Alien EPI to optimize your signal level for any device. Plug your guitar into your pedal chain, then run the chain into the main input on the EPI to take advantage of its magical input stage. Or run your guitar into the EPI, with your pedals arranged in the two loops, and switch between them at will. Either way, you'll be able to send a balanced XLR output to pro-level recording devices, or out of the RCA output for -10dBu consumer devices — even directly into your smartphone.Re-think your guitar rig Bypass an entire pedalboard Connect your pedalboard to the EPI via the send and return jacks for either effects loop — leave the other loop unconnected. Use the A/B switch to switch between the loop your pedalboard is in and the unconnected loop, effectively giving you a bypass switch for an entire pedalboard. Play through up to four amps simultaneously Connect your guitar or bass to the EPI, and send its thru jack to your first amplifier. Use the send jacks from loop A and loop B to connect to amps two and three. Then use the buffered output to connect to your fourth amplifier. The coolest thing about this setup is that you can use the A/B switch to toggle two of the amps, and the both switch to engage both of them simultaneously. Switch between two different pedalboards If you rely on lots of pedals to create your signature tones, why not use the EPI to switch between two different pedalboards? Simply connect each pedalboard to the send and return loops, and switch between them with the A/B switch. Or kick on the both switch, combining two separate processing chains into one for a massive wall of sound.Analog Alien EPI Effects Pedal Interface Features: Allows you to use guitar effects pedals with line-level devices such as drum machines, mixing consoles, 500 series processors, recording interfaces, and more Dual effects send/return loops with separate footswitches Automatically adjusts impedance and voltage levels for the highest possible fidelity Outputs include balanced XLR, buffered 1/4", and RCA (-10dBu) Balanced 1/4" input can accept instrument-level signal as well as line-level signals Guitar throughput for connecting to an amplifier Can be used to switch between two different pedalboards, or blend them Can also be used as an A-B-Y box, a direct box, a re-amping device, or as a four-way splitter SpecificationDetail Type Guitar Buffer/Loop Interface Inputs 1 x XLR-1/4" combo (Hi-Z), 1 x Single RCA (line in) Outputs 1 x XLR (balanced out), 1 x Single RCA (unbalanced out), 1 x 1/4" (thru), 1 x 1/4" (buffered guitar out) Other I/O 2 x 1/4" (Send A/B), 2 x 1/4" (Return A/B) Bypass Switching Buffered Power Source 9V DC Center Negative power supply required (sold separately) Power Usage 25mA Height 1.5" Width 5.75" Depth 4.75" Weight 1.2 lbs.
