Other Info
The gscartsw will automatically detect which console is powered on and switch to it. It's best to not power on more then one console at a time, but doing so will not damage the switch. Also, you can chain two gscartsw's together for 15 total inputs:
LPF Toggle Mod
This is for the gscartsw only, _not_ the 'lite', as the lite doesn't use a chip with a filter. This mod toggles the low-pass filter on the THS7374 amp that's inside the gscartsw. When going from analog to digital, you'll always want one LPF in your chain, or you can get interference on the screen. The only "problem" with LPF's is when more then one are in the same chain. The end effect results in a slightly blurred image.
LPF On:
- Framemeister
- Direct into a flat-screen
- Direct into a capture card
LPF Off:
- OSSC (use its LPF instead)
- RGB Monitors
- Any time another device already has one built in (including in the above scenarios), such as a console with a THS7314 mod.
