Use MIDI to Switch Amp Channels!

Do you have a channel-switching amp? Add the Control Switcher to take MIDI control of it! Created by the switching masters at Voodoo Lab, the Control Switcher works with your Commander or Ground Control Pro, giving you easy MIDI programmability for your footswitchable amplifier functions. Use MIDI to switch channels, toggle reverb, boost, EQ, loop, and more - whatever your favorite amplifier can handle. Running off of a standard 9V power supply, the Voodoo Lab Control Switcher is small enough to mount behind your amp or on your pedalboard.

Voodoo Lab Control Switcher Features at a Glance:
  • MIDI amplifier channel switcher
  • 4 isolated relay controls
  • Front-panel instant access buttons
  • Separate 1/4" mono jacks
  • Multi-DIN connector for modern amps
  • Controls any footswitch function
  • Phantom powered by GCX or Pedal Switcher via MIDI cable
  • Works with Program and Control changes
  • Handbuilt in the USA

What is Demo Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call a "demo" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

What demo means to us is that we've had it out of the box, or maybe it was in a customer's hands for a few days and isn't "factory fresh" as a result. Every demo item we sell has Sweetwater's 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty, and has been tested and verified up to "new" specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it's in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Demo item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Replaces a Monster Footswitch!

I got my hands on a Mesa Boogie Quad Preamp a few months back and I've hated the FU-2 footwitch that it comes with since I got it. Initially, I would just stick a grounded plug in the rear jack for the channel that I wanted active and go with that. Recently, I got my hands on a second Quad Preamp and the massive footswitch for that one did not work at all, but I still kept it. My friend Damian told me about this Voodoo Control Switcher and this 4 channel version works for me, since I don't use reverb much. I use it in conjunction with a Morningstar MC6 and that combination has made it easier to change channels on the Quad, instead of tap dancing on the FU-2. Thanks.

Voodoo Labs Control Switcher

Works great as intended. I use this to control my PRS MT15 with my Line6 HX Effects. It helped reduce the noise that was produced when using the MT15 footswitch into the HX Effects EXT/AMP change.

Works great

Bought to change channels on my PRS MT-15 amp. Works great, fairly easy to set up! Highly recommend.

Does its job! And easy to use

Using this with my prs mt-15. It works just as intended. Nothing fancy or cool but gets the job done. And it was pretty simple to configure with my pedal board midi controller. Highly recommend if your amp does not have midi
by Brad from S on

Worked Perfectly... Almost

I'm very impressed with the ease of use and programability of this unit. I'm using it to control 2 Bogner Ecstasy Blue pedals. These pedals use a pulse on/pulse off function, which this switcher does. I'm using a Tech 21 Midi Mongoose to control this switcher. The Midi Mongoose uses 2 of the patch buttons to change banks, i.e. button 3&4 will bank up, 3&2 will bank down. This is where I ran into an issue. If you press both buttons at the same time, the switcher tries to change to that patch, activate the relay, and change banks all at the same time, and sometimes (most of the time) the switcher doesn't catch that the output relay should be in a different state. The fix I found was to hit the button 3 on the Midi mongoose first, then press one of the other two buttons to change the bank. This gives the switcher time to react. I don't change banks in the middle of playing, only patches, so its not an issue for me but it might be for someone. Overall, I'm very happy with the switcher, and I highly recommend it!
