Hi all,
I'm trying to make a splitter to add into a bass modified Rat so I can drive two separate amps. One of the amps is an an old bass amp with a built in octave down effect.
To avoid possible ground loops, etc. Should I use something like RG's transformer coupled splitter from geofex, or is there an easier way.

thanks

Yes, all mains operated devices here have to have an earth.

Hmm. Maybe not too bad. Try it without a splitter before worrying. If both are plugged into the same AC wall outlet, that forces any leakage to the same potential, so you have a good chance at it.
