Effectively Switches Between Two Instrument Inputs

Radial Engineering's BigShot I/O switching pedal makes switching between two different instruments easy and reliable. The pedal's two switches allow you to select between two instruments on the fly or mute your entire signal. The BigShot I/O's onboard Trim and variable level for Input-2 ensure the level of your instruments can be exactly matched or dialed to taste. Flip the Tuner Out switch, and you'll enjoy constant monitoring of your tuning without affecting your signal. And the BigShot I/O is very popular at Sweetwater for its passive, true-bypass design.

Radial Engineering BigShot I/O True-bypass Instrument Selector Pedal Features:
  • I/O pedal that switches between 2 instrument inputs
  • Mute footswitch is effective for tuning or between songs
  • Tuner output sends your signal to your favorite tuner
  • Passive, true-bypass circuit retains your core tone
  • Bright, Trim, and Input-2 controls dial in your instrument's tone to taste
Control your multi-instrument setup with the BigShot I/O pedal.

Rated 5/5

Excellent

Works just as advertised. I have an acoustic guitar with active pickups, and a mandolin with passive pickups. I run them both into one input on an acoustic preamp / effects pedal after this I/O pedal. Guitar goes into input 2 with the level control. Mandolin into input 1. I'm able to get both at equal levels. Works great.
Rated 5/5

Exactly what you want from a utility device.

Dead silent, simple to operate, and built like a tank. It's a passive device that only requires power for the LED indicator lights which is nice in a pinch. I am running two electric guitars into a massively complex, stereo, midi capable pedalboard with the higher output instrument in "INPUT 2" and the Bigshot I/O handles it with ease. This is exactly the kind of headache free operation you expect from Radial.
Rated 5/5

Perfect

Absolutely perfect for keeping a guitar in standby on stage in case of a string breakage or other failure. Added plus for the ability to match levels if needed between different types of guitars, say a Les Paul and a Telecaster. No battery/power supply necessary if you don't mind losing the LED functionality. Price is right as well. This is my third Radial product, after a re-amping box and an ABY amp switcher. Their products are excellent and do the job without adding noise or unwanted color to the signal. Highly recommended.

Perfect Answer

I play In our church praise/worship team. Our instruments are DI'd into the house system so this is a perfect device and compliments my pedal board nicely to allow a popless disconnect. It also makes switching instruments so much easier; with the tap of a switch I am ablento quickly change to my second guitar. Great device.
