Midi Controlled A/B Switch

Thanks to Java for the tip on this device:

Very cool little switcher. I am using it to switch between Electric and Acoustic to go into the front input on the AxeFx, but can be used in any way an A/B switch can be used. I have it set up to switch instruments depending on the AxeFx patch selected. My floor controller is sending a CC on a different MIDI chanel than the AxeFx, so the AxeFx ignores the command and passes it to the switcher. It's a passive switch and all analog (except for switching control which is not in the signal path), very clean.

I wanted to throw this out there for those looking for switching options. Useful device IMO. Thanks again Java!

Yeah, it's been a great little unit for me. A while back before I went to the X2 wireless, I kept forgetting to switch my A/B on my guitars for certain songs. The MIDI control allows me to not have to worry about that and have it switch automatically when I switch the patch.
