Available with pre-wired board or sold separately
The main function of the
bypass strip is to keep the pedals you are not using out of the signal chain
until you want to use them, keeping those tone sucking pedals out of the signal
chain. It also helps by semi-automating your pedaldboard putting access to
most or all of your pedals right there in the front of the board. Options
include; silent tuner switch, a master switch (bypassing
everything sending the signal straight to the amp), tap tempo switch
(momentary contact),
A/B input, A/B/Y output, most amp channel switching, amp selector
switch, and
stereo loops. The strip is also available with a built in
signal buffer. A
0-22db adjustable clean boost. The buffer can be used to recover any
signal loss you my be experiencing from long lengths of cable or it can be used
as a lead boost.
Sizing
Switch spacing is standard at 3 inches apart. Switches can be
as far apart as you want and as close as 2 1/2". At 2 1/2" you run the
risk of hitting more than one switch at a time. Two switches can be placed right
next to each other so a single step can hit both switches for a one on one off
or both on/off. The strips are built from 1 3/4"
boxed 1/8" thick super strong natural or anodized black aluminum.
Red LED is standard, Blue, Yellow, Green, available at $2.50 ea. The length of
the strip is determined by the number of switches times 3" or whatever distance
apart you decide on. The strip uses standard 9vdc neg tip barrel type connector
to power the LED's only
NEW STEREO DESIGN - Allows true stereo operation for consecutive stereo pedals
Using stereo loops
Many stereo pedals are built with one in and two outs (left, right). The problem
is when you want to use more than one of these type of stereo pedal. One of the
outputs from the first pedal will go to the input of the next pedal leaving
nowhere for the other output to go. The stereo loop is designed to help with
this issue. Each stereo loop has one send and two returns allowing true stereo
imaging from any individually activated stereo pedal to get carried to two main
outputs. If you have more than one stereo loop
in your strip and more than one are activated, the true stereo image will only
come from the last activated loop in the chain. The previous pedals are
automatically reduced to mono signal. Deactivating the last stereo loop in the
strip will automatically reinstate the stereo image from the previous
stereo pedal.
