Question: Adding of effects w/o foot tapping on all of em.

[shankthrone]

Hi, i apologise if this is a dumb question and being a noob. Due to my solitariness life, i can't seems to find the answer from anyone I've known. I'm kinda looking for this possiblities, not sure whether have such things. Is it possible by adding of effects w/o dancing like a foot tapping dancer?

Example: Using the main distortion and to activate delay, wah, chorus, etc only during leads w/o foot tapping on all of them but only one this "one pedal" which can activate all of them at once. When deactivate this "one pedal", it will off all the mentioned effects and left with the distortion back alone.

Does ABY switcher can do this or is there any particular pedals? If possible, please link the product.
Thank you.

the carl martin systems can do that. but at a humongo bongo price. apart from that, a/b also can. its a matter of how its wired up.

Hi mark,

Thanks for the reply. Appreciate it. I've check the Carl Martin systems that you mentioned. I believe it is called Carl Martin Combinator 2. As spoken, the price is humongo bongo congo. US$570+! :lol:

About the ab switcher, if possible, can you give examples about "matter of how its wired up."? Thank you, sir.

 

[markedymark]

:lol: exactly why i said humongo bongo! hahahaha.

for a/b's its actually more of having repetitive drive pedal on both chains. (thats to my knowledge). it's actually not too smart lah, i mean two twin pedals with exact same settings? i'd really just tapdance.

as much as we all love convienence. tapdancing is the way! keeps you on your toes. literally. :lol:

 

[shankthrone]

I see. Yeap would waste money on that. Well, tapdancing will be my last resort if the stuffs is not worth it or too much income, etc. 8)

How about aby switcher? a = distortion, b = additional effects, y = both.
Let's say y is for both channel (A and B), toggle the y channel for the purpose. Is this convinient?

Thank you again, sir.

What you're looking for can be found in a true bypass box. I make them to order, and you can get from tymusiccenter as well. Pm me for more details if you need help in understanding how they work and their limitations.

hey i'm looking for a contraption that can do exactly that too! haha but for the future... thinking of interchanging with od,dist,delay,chorus. how does a true bypass box work?

thanks in advance.

+1 to that

eh.......guitar>distortion>true bypass box>amp. then the true bypass box send jack to your delay, wah, chorus, etc, then the last effect output to the true bypass box return jack.

they should make pedal board where you can stand in the center surrounded by your pedals.

 

[suckasucks]
