1 ACTIVE Input Jack
Plug your guitar into this jack to use the buffered input. This ACTIVE Input Jack is connected
to an active buffer that helps maintain signal strength when driving multiple devices in paral-
lel. This "buffered" output is present on the "ACTIVE OUTPUT" on the back panel of the
PatchMate.
ACTIVE INPUT (front panel) → BUFFER (internal) → ACTIVE OUTPUT (back panel)
Note: When the ACTIVE INPUT Jack is used, the buffered signal is present at the PAS.-
ACT. OUTPUT as well, allowing you to connect another device to this jack.
ACTIVE INPUT (front panel) → BUFFER (internal) → PAS.-ACT.. OUTPUT (back panel)
2 PASSIVE Input Jack
Plug your guitar into this jack if you would like to bypass the buffered input allowing your guitar
signal to "feed thru" wire to wire. This "feed thru" signal is present on the "PAS.-ACT. OUT-
PUT" on the back panel of the PatchMate
PASSIVE INPUT (front panel) → PAS.-ACT. OUTPUT (back panel)
Note: When the PASSIVE Input is NOT being used the ACTIVE (buffered) OUTPUT
will be present at the PAS.-ACT. OUTPUT. Thus, you can connect another device to
PAS.-ACT. OUTPUT and it will have the buffered signal.
