  • Good A/B switch and Grounding Issues

    I am looking for a A/B switcher that its a true A/B switch and has no spill over. I have two high gain amps and A Morley A/B/Y switcher and a Carvin AB-1 Footswitch. the Morley has all kinds of spill over, One amp sounds with the other gets a low powered and audible signal.



    AND I have a grounding issue as well. Post A/B switcher: "A" goes into a BBE rack, then Rocktron Hush rack then Boss SD-1 pedal, then into the Marshall JCM 900 Head. The "B" side goes strait into a Peavey XXL. The Peavey XXL sounds good, no problem hum, even when I run it in where I run the Marshall in the signal chain. I tried changing Power outlets on the Marshall, cables, and having seperate cabs (Both heads are run in Stereo through a Marshall 1960 4x12). Normally everything is connected to a Furman Rackrider.

    This only started when the XXL was added. And the Marshall is sitting on top of the XXL. Does its proximity to the XXL add buzz? Even when the XXL is unpluged?

    Radial makes two A/B Y switchers that will fix all your problems. Ones more $, but more features. Read up on all the specs and figure out if you can get by with the cheaper one. The ebay links below are the cheapest I've found.
    The Switchbone:

    The BigShot ABY:

    Download the manuals from here:

    The benefit of the more $ Switchbone is this:
    "Our unique Drag™ control provides single-knob load correction to re-introduce the natural relationship between the amp and guitar pickup that is invariably lost when the guitar is buffered or split to drive two amps."

      That BigShot is gonna be my next music buy. I was thinking I needed an Isolation transformer in an A/B pedel, but only thought they came in spliter boxes like IT1's.

      Thanks MountainDog
