With the Radial Switchbone V2 ABY/C amp selector and booster, you can effortlessly toggle between and combine up to three guitar amplifiers with a tap of your foot. Switching is completely silent, by virtue of high-performance opto-couplers. Buzz and hum aren't an issue either, thanks to transformer-isolated outputs. Replicate the tone and feel of being connected directly to your amp with the Switchbone V2's Drag control. A variable Baseline buffer control boosts the front end of your amp for extra punch, and a built-in power booster achieves up to +18dB of clean gain. And the Radial Switchbone V2's Class A input buffer ensures top-quality sound, enabling longer cable runs without signal degradation.
The Radial Switchbone V2 can be utilized as an A/B/Y switcher, with both A and B outputs used separately or together. Or employ the Switchbone V2 as an A/B/C switcher, and effortlessly switch between your Twin, AC30, and JCM800 with a quick tap of a footswitch. You can even drive two channels on the same amp and use the Switchbone V2 to toggle between them. ToggleMode LED indicators flash when two amps are on, alerting you as to which amp was selected last, so you can either turn it off or instantaneously change your selection.
Add serious punch to your amplifier with the Radial Switchbone V2's variable Baseline buffer control. Achieve up to +18dB of clean footswitchable boost with the built-in power booster. Imbue your leads with extra sustain with a muscular-sounding mid-boost. You can also reassign the Boost footswitch to a tuner output for quiet onstage adjustments.
Guitarists are all about their tone. That's why the Radial Switchbone V2 is designed to retain the natural tone of your instrument. A Drag potentiometer adjusts your signal's load to replicate the tone and feel of being connected directly to your amp. The guitarists here at Sweetwater have found that the Drag function works equally well with both single-coil and humbucking pickups.
When you plug into the Radial Switchbone V2, you sacrifice nothing. There are no noisy mechanical footswitches or relays. Instead, the Switchbone V2 employs high-performance opto-couplers to smoothly ramp your signal up and down, ensuring whisper-quiet switching. Transformer-isolated outputs eliminate hum and buzz, with ground-lift switches thrown in for extra security. Polarity reverse switches on outputs guarantee absolute phase alignment between amplifiers.
We're huge fans of Radial's Class A input buffering circuit. It lowers the impedance of your signal and reduces susceptibility to noise. This circuit's discrete front end eschews negative feedback, eliminating harsh odd-order harmonics, phase shift, and unwanted sonic artifacts, while permitting lengthy cable runs without affecting your tone.
