The Switchblade line currently includes 3 models:

Switchblade 8 - 8x8 unbalanced, our most affordable model


Switchblade GL

View of Switchblade GL

 

This is the ultimate system for guitar or synth racks and studio applications where standard instrument level effects processors are used. This system has 16 inputs and 16 outputs, all servo balanced so you can connect both balanced and unbalanced equipment including rack gear, floor stomp boxes, amplifiers, keyboards, and passive instruments.  The high impedance  inputs (1 MW) allow direct connections of passive instruments such as guitars and dynamic microphones without loading for maximum transparency. A -6dB trim control can be individually switched in on any of the inputs to allow handling of higher level signal processors and pickups. Four additional relay based outputs (footswitch simulators) are included for switching amp channel and reverb under preset control.

Switchblade 8B

Switchblade 8B

This new addition to our line is a smaller, lighter version of the Switchblade GL with the same balanced input/output design but in an 8 input by 8 output arrangement.  Two footswitch simulator jacks are also included in this model for relay controlled amp channel and reverb switching.  This model is ideal for the musician with a smaller array of signal processors.

Switchblade 8 

The new Switchblade 8 is the same as the Switchblade 8B but with unbalanced inputs and outputs and no input trim. This lower cost system is ideal for the musician with a standard array of rack and floor effects devices where balanced connections are not required. Two footswitch simulator jacks are included.
