Designed by Thomas Guldman the Octa-Switch lets you take eight effects pedals, plug them into the eight individual loops (all true-bypass gold relays), and then designate what effects you want connected to each of 8 banks via the worlds simplest and smallest DIP switches located over top of each of the eight bank switches.

The DIP switches are eight individual on-off switches in a tiny package. So if your effects are plugged into Loops 1-8, you simply turn the DIP switch 'on' for each of the effects you want in Bank 1, and then Bank 2 etc up to Bank 8. You can use one or all of the effects in each bank.

The Octa-switch is mono-in and mono/stereo out, with a choice of a buffered signal or not. The unit is powered by dual 9v batteries, or a regulated power supply like the Carl Martin Big John Power Supply, and is housed in an all metal case
