• 2x independent audio inputs with:
  • independent multi-stage preamplifiers per channel (+6, +15, +20dB);
  • TS connectors;
  • Input impedance 1 MΩ
  • Programmable Fine Adjust Gain Amplifier: ± 12 dB Gain, 0.5 dB step.
  • 24 bit Digital Audio convertion Bit Depth.
• 2x independent audio outputs with:
  • TRS noise cancelling;
  • TRS connectors (balanced compatible);
  • Volume Control: 0 to -127 dB, 0.5dB step;
  • 24 bit Digital Audio convertion Bit Depth.
• Headphone output:
  • 6.35mm TRS connector
  • Digital volume control from +12dB to −33dB
• SPDIF output:
  • 3.5mm coaxial TS connector

Each input/output uses a TRS connector, a True Bypass circuit, and has a LED whose color depends on the audio signal amplitude. Learn more about the Duo LED indicators here and for the Duo X here.

Control Voltage

• 2 CV input ports
  • Togglable to CV Expression (you can use this input to connect one expression pedal)
  • Stereo 6.35mm TRS connector
