indeed. it uses TRS jacks, wired in a 'through' configuration - when there is nothing in the jack, it passes the signal through to the other terminal. If there is a plug in the jack, it sends the signal down the tip, and expects a return signal on the sleeve... it is better for exactly the reason you mentioned - automatic switching - why else would you put something in if you didn't want to use an 'effect'?Freezer7Pro wrote:

you know how they are wired, right?
A quick look at the Wikipedia article hints that it's roughly the same thing as the the "jumper plugs" in home audio equipment, but with switched TS/TRS plugs rather than RCA. Would that be correct?
In that case, I don't see why they'd be a better solution, as the main advantage would be the switch in the TRS jacks allowing for automatic bypassing, something that is much harder to achieve with RCA (and much more expensive, since it'd require rather special connectors).
Because I want to split the output?
Ah!. Ok, well, then in that case, you only insert the plug to the 'sleeve' connector, aka the 'first click'. The signal is still passed through the jack terminals, but also down the plug
do you need a block diagram?
And there's no special or expensive equipment.
