Greetings!

First post and unfortunately, because of an issue I'm having... Does anyone know if it is possible to change the phase of an output(s) on this product? I gave multiple amps connected and all are not in phase...cables are all ok...

Thanks ,

Snark

You can reverse the connections on one end of the instrument cable used to feed the out-of-phase amp, or you can reverse the speaker connection within the out-of-phase amp or cabinet.

What amps are you using?

Thanks John

I'm using various Marshall 100 watt heads... I wanted to see if there might be some other way to change the polarity vs modifying cables.... curious though if the voodoo switch was designed to have different polarity on the outputs? or do I have a unique issue?

As you have found, there is not a way on the switcher itself to directly reverse the phase of the outputs. This problem can easily be resolved by reversing the speaker connections on the offending amp(s) cabinets. Because your amps appear to basically be similar in design, it is possible that one or more of the speaker cabinets are already wired out of phase, relative to each other, to begin with. It isn't as simple as flipping a switch, but once resolved at the source of the problem it will always be correct ;)

I hope that helps!
