RADIAL BIGSHOT I/O TRUE-BYPASS INST SELECTOR

Description

The Radial Engineering Bigshot I/O True Bypass Instrument Selector is a passive, true-bypass signal switcher that allows you to switch back and forth between two instruments, match their respective volumes and mute your entire rig as well.

Built like a tank from 14-gauge steel with heavy-duty footswitches, the Bigshot I/O features a separate output for your tuner, removing it from your signal path while giving instant access, even while the Bigshot is muted. Differences in signal between two instruments can be equalized with the Dim switch.

Compact, tough and versatile, the Bigshot I/O takes the awkwardness out of playing live with two instruments, and makes you look smooth and professional as you switch off with just a step on one pedal.

Like a Stagehand in a Box
If you're not lucky enough to have a guitar tech switch your instruments for you, the Bigshot I/O is the next best thing. Just press the Toggle pedal and your alternate instrument is hooked up, volume-matched and ready to go.

Separate Tuner Output
The separate tuner out not only provides always-on access to your tuner, even when the Bigshot has your rig muted, but also isolates the tuner when not in use, for an unadulterated signal path.

Volume Matching
Not all instruments put out the same signal level. Some are naturally "hotter" than others. The Dim switch lets you even out the difference before the show for seamless transitions that will leave your sound man smiling.
