EX Signal Line Select A/B Box Switch Mini Guitar Effect Pedal Channel True Bypass

If you need fine adjustments (audiophile) choose something else. Maximum 3dB up and down on all sliders and they aren't very linear. Think of an exponential graph. The sliders don't do much till they get to about 75% and then have a noticeable change again through to 100%. That being said, it is VERY good. Middle notch makes returning sliders to 0dB easy and exact. It's built solid out of metal. Form factor is ingenious for a 7 band EQ and the price makes it the best value for a equalizer pedal hands down. Even though mine was clearly used I don't care. It's good quality and does what it needs to for me and doesn't take up space.

Had this on my board for 4 years to switch between distortion channel and clean and it still works great. Unfortunately the room in takes up sitting horizontal, especially the added width caused by cables coming out the left and right side and the bypass button, I button I never use, has me looking into an alternative loopbox that can be hidden away. Something with an input for a smaller single button footswitch that can be attached and brought out into the open. This is a much better design but unfortunately I can tell you after a lot of shopping around the cost of an alternative solution like that comes at a cost, in the box I'm looking at the price is 5x as much. Doesn't really make sense why these such a simple device cost so much, and I can't wrap my head around why more companies aren't making these, but if space isn't a deal breaker or you can fit this on to your board, this is absolutely worth investing in. I've decided I have to invest in something much more expensive to save

I really liked all three modes on this pedal and was surprised how much control I got out of this cheap pedal. I've seen some negative reviews on YT but I think those people probably didn't have the patience to get the most out of the pedal. I was surprised at just how functional this pedal was. The level, decay and mix pots are tiny and very sensitive so that is important to keep in mind if you don't want to deal with that. Another odd thing about it is that, instead of a selector switch, the mode selection is via a potentiometer and it is the most fiddly part of the pedal, especially when trying to select the "Spring" mode. There are two indicator LEDs, one green and one red. So if you want to select spring mode, you have to turn the pot slowly from one extreme or the other and when you see both LEDs light up together, you're in spring mode. It is best to actually strum a chord or note and let it ring while you turn the knob so you can hear the mode change. For the other two modes, simply turning the pot all the way to one side or the other worked to select the other modes but YMMV due to component variance and the way the circuit works. You can use the above technique and just adjust to the point where it goes from both LEDs lit up to a single LED lit up. Having said all this, I have no regrets about buying this pedal. I especially liked the spring mode because you really aren't getting any closer to the sound of a spring reverb tank from a pedal, at any price. It is a classic sound that you need if you want classic rock (and even a lot of modern stuff) to sound right. The other two modes are fine too. The unit seems pretty sturdy but I'm not sure how it would hold up to gigging. I mainly bought it for practicing and for recording. I got it half off on a flash sale and it was a lot cheaper than buying a vintage amp plugin for my DAW. The bundled power supply is of decent quality and didn't cause any noise issues.

For a little $35 pedal, it sounds amazing! Killer metal tones! A few things to know right off the bat if you're considering purchasing this pedal: 1. It is not battery operated, it's too small for a battery compartment, so you will need an AC adapter, but it's not sold with one unless you purchase the pedal package, which does include one with it. 2. Run the pedal out in front of the amp, not in the FX loop, if you have one. Also run it through the Clean channel with no distortion/overdrive from the amp. 3. Use the Tone setting very sparingly, especially in High Boost and full Distortion settings; if you dime out the Tone to full treble, it will sound awful; trust me on this. Many bigger name Distortion and Overdrive pedals are the same way. I set the Tone knob nearly off or completely off. 4. At the highest Boost and Distortion settings, you will get a slight whining noise when you're not playing, that doesn't overpower the signal. It's probably from the mode switch circuit and not AC or line interference. I have a noise suppressor pedal at the end of the chain on my pedalboard, so that takes care of it. Again, it's pretty surprising and sounds really good for a little $35 pedal! Just do some tweaking between your amp, guitar and the pedal And you'll come out with some pretty awesome metal tones!

This is a solidly built device that does exactly what it claims to do. I was going to modify/rewire it for another purpose but due its use of pc boards I'm just going to keep it and find another simple box to modify.

I was fairly skeptical about this pedal, I needed to switch between 2 sets of effects for a cover show I'm playing for halloween. I've played through my fair share of true bypass loopers and switchers over 20+ years, and I am so impressed with this pedal for the price. It's a solid metal housing, durable switches (small pop but nowhere near noticeable in a live setting), no bleed between loops or the throughput no matter how much gain you're using, very good retention of tone and high end, honestly it's better than 90% of the switchers I've tried at a fraction of the price, for real. If the price is throwing you off, just try it.

This box is a little strange. For what it is at its price point it's solid, but its not quite what it seems. When powered the device isn't true bypass, it runs some sort of buffer. So you can't both have the leds working and keep it a truly passive pedal. Normally, I'd say buffers are just fine, but - at least for my particular unit- this thing's buffer is poorly implemented. It has low head and distorts in a way that unpleasant to me and cuts off a lot of high end articulation. The input/output loops are also very close together and don't work well with any but very narrow right angle patch cables. My solution, rather than buying more cables was to pop it open and bypass/connect the A/B channels so the input/outputs were universally shared. Problem is, the circuit of this thing is not what you'd expect out of a simple switching box. I had to desolder the input of one channel and the output of another because those connecters run signal to ground if not plugged into and a connecting lugs on the switch didn't work as expected even then so I had to wire up all the pins after stripping out those two jacks. That last part isn't neccesarily a contributing factor to the 3 stars, but the odd wiring with its not great buffer coming included with the use of the LEDs and the jacks being too close together are definite drawbacks. For a box this low priced why isn't it just a couple LEDs and jacks wired to the foot switches? That would actually have been str8 up better for what it is. If the jacks were better placed and the buffer a better circuit or just not included itd be 5 stars.

Every peddle board needs a preamp EQ Pedal even with modeling amps to harsh your mellow and mellow your harsh. Nice when messing around hollow and skewing other effects. This one particular fits nice to my setup and I'm very happy with size and breath of range adjustments.
