About ABY & Switcher Pedals

ABY Pedals (sometimes referred to as Pedal Switchers) are important pieces of equipment that are present on most pedalboards. ABY pedals allow players to turn one signal path into two, or two signal paths into one. Functionally this means that you can take one guitar and play it through two amps simultaneously, allowing for a whole new realm of expression and tonal experimentation. Switcher Pedals come in a variety of different forms. From larger, more complex boards, to more compact designs, passive ABY/active ABY, true bypass and many more qualities make ABY pedals a "must-have" for their rig.

ABY pedals is a catch-all term for pedals that do basic routing functions or send basic information to other pedals or your amp and these utility pedals can really open up the creative potential of your guitar playing. Playing through multiple amps at the same gives real breadth to your sound and opens up a world of stereo and “wet/dry” possibilities.

Why Should I Choose a Switcher Pedal?

  • Unleash the creative potential of your pedal board
  • Gives you hands free control of your amp or other pedals
  • A guitar pedal switcher allows you to use two amps at a time!

Frequently Asked Questions about ABY & Switcher Pedals

Question: What is an ABY pedal used for?
ABY pedals are used either to turn one signal path into two, or two signal paths into one. This means that you could plug two guitars into one amp simultaneously or plug one guitar into two amps simultaneously.
Question: What is the difference between AB pedal and ABY pedal?
An AB Pedal gives you the option to switch between two signals. An ABY pedal gives you the ability to switch between two signals, or use both at once.
Question: Where do you put the ABY pedal in a chain?
Where you put an ABY pedal in a chain will vary from person to person. The placement of your ABY pedal in your effects chain will largely depend on what is in the chain, and how you want to use the ABY. For example, if you want to run everything through both signals, put it at the end of the chain.
Question: Are ABY pedals active or passive?
ABY pedals can be both active and passive, depending on your particular pedal.
Question: What is the difference between an A/B box and an A/B/Y box?
An A/B box enables you to switch between either of two signals whereas an A/B/Y switch allows you to switch between them or have both simultaneously. The ‘Y’ is a diagram of the signal, with one path forking into two paths.
Question: What type of guitar player needs a switcher pedal?
Switcher pedals are great for any player who wants to clean up their pedal board for a professional sound and reliability.
Question: Can you use an ABY pedal backwards?
Using an ABY pedal backwards can work depending on the type of pedal.
