The BigShot EFX is a true-bypass effects loop switcher that lets you set up two separate effects loops and insert them into your pedal chain at will. This means that noisy pedals or tone robbing non true-bypass pedals that you 'love to hate' can now be used and completely taken out of the signal path when they are not needed.

Better yet, while an effects loop is on 'standby', you can turn on and off pedals at will and prepare your sound. Then, with one foot stomp you can turn on as many pedals as you like for professional multi-effects performance without the usual tap dancing! Add the BigShot PB1 buffer into the loop and you can now drive as many pedals as you like without adding noise. For those that like quiet tuning, you can use the second loop as a tuner out and the BigShot EFX will mute your signal with a single stomp.

Compact, rugged and plug & play easy to use, the BigShot EFX opens the door to professional pedal management and lets you do it all right at your feet!

Radial BigShot EFX Effects Loop Features:

  • Instant access to two effects loops
  • Take noisy pedals out of the signal chain
  • Create true-bypass signal path with all pedals
  • Compact and rugged for pro pedalboards
  • Easy to use and set up

Small Package, HUGE Impact!

if you have a simple pedal rig or a complex pedal rig, this little guy can become your best friend in a matter of seconds.

i have a bunch of noisy pedals, ancient pedals that bleed over, and a few of them are not true bypass. this is a huge problem because no one wants to intentionally color their natural guitar tone.

i routed everything to my liking and now i dont even get the annoying 'click-on' break in signal when turning vintage pedals.

i highly suggest this for anyone who is a serious player who uses pedals and doesn't have an amplifier with an effects loop built in.

I hate this thing.

Without some kind of LED indication of which loop is active, this thing is a nightmare to use. If you ever find yourself in a situation where monitoring is difficult, this thing becomes useless.

I love this pedal

this pedal has saved me from doing the pedal dance. my only wish is that it was a little bit bigger and had a slant to it. other than that, it's a sturdy little bastard.

Works like a charm

This switcher is a Godsend because I use a lot of pedals, and some of them produce a little background noise. I'm able to manage them a lot better be cutting them out when I don't need them. This switcher does the trick, and it's rugged too.
