Need a true bypass signalsplitter.

Sign in to disble this ad
I need a true bypass signalsplitter. I have the Boss LS-2, but it's on my effectsboard to toggle between effects. As of now, some of the pedals on the board are a Zvex Wooly Mammoth and an EBS Octabass, and both pedals need to be as close to the bass as possible due to tracking issues.

That is why I need a true bypass splitter in front of my board. The plan is to bi-amp and use two rigs. From the bass to the splitter, then one signal to the board while the other one goes straight to an amp with little or no effects. I've tried putting a buffered pedal before the board and it resulted in the two mentioned pedals tracking poorly.

I also wonder if the Keeley True Bypass looper can work as a signalsplitter on not just as a looper? The reason is that I don't need a fancy splitter with extra EQ and such. Just a simply, no knob splitbox.

What you need is a Y-box or A/B/Y box. You can get these from Loop-Master or other companies online, or you can snag mine in the classifieds.

If you don't mind sending it to Norway.

Loop-Master's page is down. What features does it have?

Strange. The site is working perfectly fine for me.

This is the pedal I have. Feature are:
Code:
Totally passive, and ultra-transparent with zero bleed-over when in "A" or "B" mode.
This particular design uses the "X" pattern wiring for grounding out each unused signal while also providing you with the option of combining both "A" and "B".
Run your guitar into two amps at the same time or A/B between them.
The ultimate A/B box!!!  
 COMPONENTS: Aluminum enclosure, 3PDT switches, 22 Gauge  Silver Plated Military Spec. Wiring, and of course....Switchcraft  jacks.  
 DIMENSIONS: 4.40" X 2.38" X 1.22" (MXR-Sized) 
 LEDS: For the 9V DC Jack, these units require a 9V AC  adapter with a Boss/Ibanez style 2.1mm barrel plug.
If you do not have one, we have these in the "Accessories" section. (Unit will work without  LED's. The LED circuit in any Loop-Master™ unit does not affect tone.)
They also have a Y-splitter box that is also passive, but you can't select between one side on or the other, or both at once like you can with an A/B/Y.
