EarthQuaker Devices Swiss Things

The hidden key of each pedalboard!

I will try to write this as much detailed as possible because I was looking to make the best for my 14 pedals on pedaboard.

Congrats to the manufacturer of Earthquaker devices. They deserved prizes for this pedal.

So pedal completely suppresses signal problems and the guitar sounds like it's plugged directly into the amp and the tone is so crisp, and you basically have a pedalboard full of pedals working in parallel.

There are 2 loops: Loop one is for distortion pedals, overdrives, boosters that don’t need a buffer and therefore sound great. Loop 2 is a buffered loop with a quality buffer that includes all modulation pedals like tremolo, chorus, reverb, delay, etc. Everything is connected and controlled through one pedal "Swiss Things". It's great for manipulation because in the middle of playing if you have a lot of effects turned on, in one switch you can turn them all off so you don't need to dance on the pedalboard.

This pedal has a built-in quality Earthquaker devices clean booster. Clean booster is so loud and gives a full tone just when you need it.

That's not all. It has a separate output for the Expression pedal and Tuner so these channels are isolated and don’t affect the tone with bad pedals.

That's not all. There is also an AB switch. So 2 amplifiers can be connected to this pedal and with one switch you can to change the amplifiers, for example if one amplifier is better for clean and the other for lead. It even has a switch for both + phase at once.

Swiss things have flexi switches (inform on internet about this cool function)...

Conclusion: What a pedal! But the biggest + is that purity of tone because of bypass that bypasses everything and goes directly into the amp and the tone is divine if you know what you want. Also switching to FX loop amplifiers does not make any problem.

Great recommendation

Very, very good toolbox, no isues with 2 amps anymore. All stereo connections no problems...The centercontrol of the whole pedalboard when using a lot of pedals.
