Our users rate Reverb
Professional eight-loop programmable guitar effects switching system, designed by Thomas Guldmann and manufactured by East Sound in Denmark for Carl Martin.
The Octa-Switch MK3 is an exceptionally practical solution for guitarists who want to control an entire pedalboard with a single footswitch.
Rather than turning several pedals on and off individually, the Octa-Switch allows you to create eight different combinations of effects and recall each one instantly.
Features
- Eight independent true-bypass effects loops
- Eight programmable presets
- High-quality relay-based switching
- Dedicated master bypass
- Simple DIP-switch programming — no menus or software
- Switchable input buffer
- Stereo outputs
- Two programmable external switching outputs for amplifier channel control
- Individual LED indicators
- Heavy-duty metal enclosure
- Made in Denmark
- Designed by Thomas Guldmann
How it works
Connect your pedals to the eight send/return loops, then use the DIP switches to select which effects should be active for each preset.
For example:
- Preset 1: Compressor + chorus
- Preset 2: Overdrive + delay
- Preset 3: Fuzz + phaser
- Preset 4: Boost + delay + reverb
One footswitch recalls the entire combination.
Because the switching is relay-based and the effects loops are true bypass, pedals that aren't selected are removed from the signal path.
The unit also offers external amplifier switching, making it useful for coordinating pedal changes and amplifier channel changes.
