Swiss Things keeps you sounding great! How are YOU using Swiss Things?

[@axelrivas9158]

If you want to use your tube amp distortion with this item can u run a cable from behind the head ? I’m using a peavey 6505 mh

[@axelrivas9158]

I’m trying to activate the overdrive only when I press the head distortion foot switch

[@lukasm8990]

I'm just imagining myself play one. It's the best I can do at the moment

[@tonyvardy2399]

This thing is great 👍 You can add a ABY box into loop 2 for a wet dry rig, awesome 👌

[@Tamalelepipedon]

Hey EQD! Help me please. Where to put the looper in the chain? Thx in advance!

[@admbrnk3665]

That pedal really tied the rig together.

[@thepedalzone]

Killer product and killer thorough presentation. Love these new tech vids with Cory. Great job, gang!

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Thanks!

[@chrisegg7936]

just to be clear, the swiss things DOES come with two Dr. Z heads and 2 matching cabs, right?

[@jameshalbert181]

And a PRS

[@thatmanonapedal]

Mmm...yeah!

[@JeremyBeut]

EQD has got to be the best, most innovative pedal company out there, I love it. Also, apart from the great demo, your playing is outstanding, I love the sounds you created during the video ! Thanks a lot !

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Thank you for the kind words and support Jeremy!

[@LauraSquirrel]

Yeah, they totally rock my socks.

[@mattvgyo]

For realz! This demo sold me not only on the Swiss Things, but another pedal in the chain as well!

[@christopherecatalano]

Smart folks...

[@NicholasGreenwood]

Buffers! Yes! Buffered tuner out, buffered A/B amp sends, buffered loops! They help! Finally people are starting to come around on the idea that buffers are beneficial for guitarists! I've been so sick of the hearing the "true bypass is the ONLY way to go" snobs for the past 10+ years.

[@maxonmendel5757]

But it breaks apart your guitar signal then puts it back together digitally and digital is bad /s

[@alextbuck7]

Maxon Mendel That’s only true with digital pedals with no analog dry out. A buffer is an analog device that’s just reducing capacitance from long cable runs. No digital processing is involved in a buffer.

[@watermelon1147]

This is honestly an incredible tool. My first pedal from you guys. I’m blown away by the stellar wiring, it makes all my other pedals sound better. Thank you for the amazing work. Im so happy with this product I’m buying a dispatch master right now! ❤

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Great to hear!

[@riffswamp]

What a thoughtful multi-purpose solution! Also I'm grateful for a rather metal/post-rock oriented demo! \m/

[@risskipp]

Such an excellent showcase of this seemingly complicated box. Definitely looked at it and thought “wow, that looks very complicated”. Turns out it’s pretty easy to grasp thanks to the thorough demo. Thanks!

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Thanks for the feedback Rick, glad it helped!

[@bradbarker4041]

Pretty versatile even with just two bypass loops. Hits the sweet spot between ordinary bypass loopers and MIDI-based systems.

[@jakubowskij]

Hey Cory, phenomenal job on this demo. I thought you did a tremendous job showcasing what this thing can potentially do! Mine will arrive tomorrow, I'm very excited. The fact that I'm willing to spend over $200 on something that will slightly improve my signal says a lot about how much i believe in EarthQuaker Devices. Stoked!

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Thanks for the love Josh! We know you will enjoy it

[@AndrewBoydMusic]

It is a fantastic attribute!

[@kurtisdesautels1605]

Cory should do more pedal presentations. Love that vibe!

[@vegisaynom]

If the tuner out sounds good enough, this would be great for a wet/dry/wet rig! Have your fx you want in the dry section before the swiss things, tuner out goes to the dry amp, the mono wet fx go in loops 1 and 2, and then the stereo out goes to the stereo wet fx for wet/dry/wet! What a great product, and a great demo! Well done guys!

[@vegisaynom]

Note: I wouldn't expect the tuner out to sound bad, but it may have phasing issues as it wasn't designed to deliver your signal to an amp, have you tried this and if so, how does it sound?

[@codyhawkins2771]

God i can't wait to buy swiss things. This has to be the best thing ever made for a pedal board. Thank you EarthQuakerDevices for this beauty.

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Thanks Cody! We think it is sweet too! Hope you enjoy it. Tag us in some posts once you get it so we can see how you choose to use it! Have a great weekend!

I'm in LOVE!!!! That pedal was the solution I was waiting for!!!

[@dialect64]

I make noise rock and have about 14 pedals. Been going the lazy cheapo route and only using a DI pedal to split for a stereo rig. Got to chat with a rep at an expo about my rig, and seems this is my best option on the market right now to basically play two completely different sounds simultaneously.

[@Joefalconeri001]

As a bassist with a pedalboard filled with 12 pedals. I don't do an awful lot of tap dancing, so adding a large multi loop switcher seemed impractical and would need a bigger board to fit it. The swiss things is just right for how I would utilize it without expanding my board size. I just purchased mine today. 😎

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Its gonna be great! Thanks for the support

[@NicBurrows]

Oh wow this looks great. I use 2 amps and this looks awesome. And the pedal board is the tidiest pedal board I have ever seen - you should do a "how to build THIS board" guide.

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Thanks Nic

[@granthambeard]

I only use two or three pedals, but I like being able to have a couple of amps without hum and phase issues. Good work earthquaker!

[@chrisegg7936]

also, putting the volume pedal loop after the unbuffered loop is a sneaky bit of genius that i’m not sure other companies would have thought of

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

😏 Stillman knows

[@LaurenLeon]

Awesome product. Loved hearing those Toska riffs too! Great job

[@revol40]

It's like you heard the thoughts in my mind and put it into the swiss thing. Awesome.

Definitely seems like a bit of a learning curve I’d have to tackle but I totally intend to buy this one day. Genius.

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Ah, you got this. Its easy once you study it for a bit. We are always here if you have questions.

[@droopsie1]

What if my amp has a FX loop?

[@ShallieDragon]

This is exactly what I was looking for. I was thinking about all the pedals I'd need for my board: a buffer pedal, an AB switch, a boost pedal, and some way to handle stereo. Now, I don't need to do any of that, because this pedal does all of those and more.

[@SergioDuFont]

This is really well designed. After studying the signal path on your website A three way switch that could split the clean signal in parallel to -> Loop 1 -> Loop 2 Or -> Loop 1 -> Direct out or bypass the clean blend and send straight to loop 1 (as the current circuit is) would be a HUGE benefit to bass players, and would give guitarists more options too. Perhaps that may not work the way the gain structure of the circuit is currently designed but it’s just an idea that came to mind of a way it could be even more useful.

[@jeanortiz9853]

Great pedal. Great demo! this guy is a good speaker.

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Thanks! We LOVE Cory!

[@dethsyndrome]

I see it now this pedal is going to be the heart of my pedalboard!

[@Bairov]

This would be the best switcher on the market hands down if you made this with buffer on off switches for the loops. OMG 😊

[@clemwest4536]

I must admit I might wait for a flashier special artwork... Part of EQD’s charm is they aren’t afraid of colors!

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

But this one goes to eleven...

[@Hardvolume007]

Own it. It’s a mandatory piece.

[@perrygoround]

WOW, I have recently bought 3 different pedals to get only a fraction of the things this single pedal does. I will be looking forward for it.

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Cool, glad we can be there for you! Enjoy!

[@chipsterb4946]

Very smart to set up Loop 1 for a Fuzz Face, Wah or whatever you have that does NOT like buffers. Really well thought out gizmo. It would be even better if it was possible to use Loop 1 before the preamp and loop 2 in an amp’s effects loop as an option. The pedal is super cool - just an idea.

Hey Stefano!

[@KR-no1or]

Hi EQD! Two questions. 1) how would you run a stereo pedal into the loops to maintain the stereo output? 2) Where would a compressor pedal sit in this chain? Thanks you guys are awesome. Edit:. Maybe my questions were answered but I'm at work and couldn't fully listen, sorry in advance.

[@KR-no1or]

I did read up your full description on the EQD website and didn't see the answer there.

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

You would put the stereo pedals after both outputs and engage both outputs. The compressor would be before the input of Swiss Things.

[@yoyo19831983]

@@EarthQuakerDevices wished loop 2 was stereo

[@mikeroadblock]

It’s good enough for me. I’m a wet dry guy myself. Keep on rocking everybody! Cheers.

[@rockstardr]

yeah i would have needed this with a stereo return in loop two and a switch to sum stereo to mono.

[@AndreaTurini_theAND]

This pedal might be the solution to my pedalboard problems but I have a question: i usually run my modulation and time based pedals into the fx loop of my orange head so I can also use the high gain section of the amp. That being said, how can I run loop 2 of the Swiss thing (with all the modulation and delays and reverbs) into the fx loop of the amp?

[@Ezra.G]

I do the same with my orange and I have the same question

[@eflarrow666megadeth]

Hi, have you got any response or figured out a solution to that problem? I have the exact same problem!

[@cinnamoncoffeecake5925]

I just want this but with an additional expression pedal out that can blend the two fx loops, so that instead of just having an A/B switch you can do a slow blend transition. hell, replace the volume exp with a blend and i’m sold

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Thanks for the great idea! But that would make this pedal a lot more expensive😅

[@cinnamoncoffeecake5925]

@ understandable haha, you guys are awesome anyway!! only thing i’ve ever seen that does what i was imagining is the gigrig wetter blender which i just found out existed 30 minutes ago lmao

[@ronvanhee]

[@druwk]

This is cool option for the programming challenged, who want to be able to loop! I like the idea of setting up different loops but still being able to deal with the pedals directly. Seems really well thought out?

[@denverm4x]

Cory is a sick guitarist.

[@SofaJams]

Guys, this is amazing. I think we need to get one for our sessions! 😮

[@hankgalt]

Could the volume pedal be used as an attenuator for a cranked amp since there no signal loss? Also does this all mean you don’t use the effect loop in the amp and just go direct from Swiss things to the front of the amp or does it go in the effects loop return?

[@th3rdpartyproductions98]

Awesome utility... could you get the stereo effects from the pyramids and avalanche though?

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Our stereo pedals can go after both engaged Swiss Things outputs.

[@MathewCohenProject]

I just got one of these and the crappy part about loop 2 is that it kills my delay trails when disengaged. Would be nice if there was a switch or button (even inside) to allow for this functionality.

[@Direksone]

Very cool, but how would it work exactly in a typical Metal setup? I get my distortion sounds from my amp(s). I can’t really use these loopers to go from Dirty channel with my OD to a clean channel with delay, reverb and octaver, right? Also my octaver is always used on conjunction with my reverb and delay for ambient sounds. An octaver can can be used in loop 2 I assume? And my noise gate and OD (which is used for tone only, no real gain) should then be placed before the Swiss Things, correct? All in all it seems like a great product and I am looking into a 2 amp setup, but I would really like to be able to switch from heavy distortion sounds that come from my amps to a clean ambient passage on the go.

[@ArpeggioDream77]

Cory mentioned that ‘always on’ pedals such as compressors and EQ should go BEFORE...??? And what if I have an old, noisy Ross compressor. Wouldn’t I want THAT in the loop to quiet it down some?

[@Bairov]

Could I use the tuner out as a signal splitter and run a second pedal boars from that signal. Then run that second pedal board signal back into the swissthings effects loop 2 to control it withbthe switch? I was thinking this might create a noise loop. If not, i'm buying this thing asap

[@Tomsdrawings]

How would you set up a wet-dry rig with this?

[@hiram6760]

such a great pedal i mean will solve a lot of problems on the pedalboard but my only question is where should I place decimator g string ii or trio plus using swiss things I looked everywhere but I did not find an answer also please correct me if I am wrong would be possible if I place the noise gate pedal instead of volume pedal ex , really don't know again thank you kindly for sharing it means a lot

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

you could place your noise gate after swiss things or within loop 1 if you wish

[@JV-rx3ov]

It almost looks like you have to be seated in order to maximize the functions of this. I'll still buy one though because it's seems really useful & it's EQD.

[@brunonz]

Hello, Really like the concept! Might get one for myself. I just have a question. In case loop 1 is NOT engaged and i am using an overdrive on my signal chain, then i engage loop 1, what happens to my overdrive? Does it turn off, and the other pedal switch on? And how do i program which pedals switch with loops engaged?

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

you put pedals in the loops where you want, and turn them on. then you step on the loop switches to engage the pedals in the loops. Nothing automatically turns off. Your OD would stay on unless you physically turned it off. You can't program anything. You would be adding the sound of the pedal or pedals in loop 1 to your OD sound if your OD was already on. If you put your OD in loop 1 and some other pedals in loop 2, you would control all of your pedals directly from Swiss Things. Hope this helps, and I hope I understood your question correctly.

[@SandcastleTheory]

If this thing operated as a stereo A/B/Y pedal it would be a dream come true... (sigh). Cheers!

[@ChristBurner]

THOSE POWER CABLES!!! :D ordered my swiss things through sweetwater a few weeks ago... whats the story on those power cables Corey?

[@RoloTomasie]

Seems like a great product. Is it possible to send loop B to just one amp for a wet/dry setup?

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

No

[@louaquiler]

Would this allow me to run stereo pedals truly in stereo and still have an A/B box? Most A/B boxes, even the expensive ones, won't let me make full use of my Empress Echosystem's two separate delay engines into two separate amps - they just have your whole board as one signal split between two amps.

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

The signal will indeed be in series and split between two amps. You will have to place a true stereo pedal after Swiss Things and use both outputs for true stereo use.

[@sebastianengberg1731]

When I do a solo I need to have delay, distortion and wah wah. Cad Swiss Things make me do that with one push?

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Swiss Things can't make you do anything, but you could put all of those things in one effects loop on Swiss Things and bring them all into your signal path with one push. But you would have to push the Wah also unless you use it in a fixed position. Is this a trick question?

[@robertfoster8025]

@Earthquaker Devices... I suppose you're running straight through the front of the amps? I don't see how it would be possible to use this in an fx loop.. ?

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Although it is possible to use Swiss Things in your amp's effects loop, this utility pedal is designed to be placed before your amp's input in the signal chain.

[@emanutuber]

Where would you put a wah wah pedal when using this "swiss things"?

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Well you could go before swiss things. Or after swiss things if you want it to filter the whole set up . You could put it in loop 1 if you want to be able to take it out of the chain.

[@eldude-iv8dw]

I didn’t get this until 330 mark, also high five to whoever did the graphic X and checks, the light bulb came one with that.

[@HarrellEngineDyno]

This is no good for stereo pedals right?

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

you can use stereo pedals after swiss things by using and activating both of the outputs.

[@federicoanfossi9558]

Can I send output A and output B to additional pedal, than to a Y pedal (like the new JHS summing amp) in order to get up to 4 loop? I'd rather compromise the two amp capabilities in order to have additional loops, as far as my pedalboard is actually composed. Thanks!

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

output A and output B are already in a Y configuration for you. After the outputs of Swiss Things you can take those signals and send them wherever you want. You can definitely have pedals after the outputs. Contact [e-mail] if you have any further questions, thanks.

[@drewcobarrubias2093]

So you put your tremolo pedal in loop 1 with your overdrive and fuzz pedals?

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

You can, yeah. Or you can put it in loop 2.

[@drewcobarrubias2093]

Ok thank you. Can't wait till I get my swiss things!

[@maxonmendel5757]

The only problem I would have is reverb pedals not getting bypass trails. Then again all my time pedals are boutique and dont have trails anyway. *eye roll* also stereo for loop 2 would be cool, as others have mentioned, not that I have any stereo pedals either xD I'm just bustin chops. This is a great device! Keep innovating, EQD! This takes care of so many different utility problems.

[@matrixmodulator]

Hi i got 2 brand new swiss things and both have signal coming out of OUT B even if it is muted... I tried with active pickups first, then with passive pickups it's less apparent but when i activate the boost switch it passes a bit of signal through the OUT B, enough so that i hear it clearly. Any ideas ??!

@@EarthQuakerDevices i did 2 days ago

[@tjnugent62]

How would this be used if you only used one amp that has one input?

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Hi TJ. You would connect output A to the input of your amp. You can then use the output B foot-switch as a mute control, and always have the option to easily connect a second amp if you get one at a later time.

[@atxplankspanker]

Stereo? Or do you mean you can play two amps in mono at one time? Maybe, one clean and the other with effects. I can see using this through your amps effects chain and getting stereo but I don't think it is set up this way in the video. Is it?

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

you can use true stereo effects in true stereo, but they must be placed after Swiss things in the signal chain using both outputs

[@atxplankspanker]

Yep, figured that one but its a shame there isn't a c along with the A/B. I run a separate pedal board for the back of the amp.

[@NoCoverCharge]

so my always on compressor would have to be placed between the guitar in and the swiss thingy?

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

doesn't have to but works great in that location.

[@alexflorin3488]

Hello there! Could I use this magnificent device to do the following: I have a delay pedal (meet Maude) which doesn’t have the option for trails unfortunately. So would it be able to put it into some sort of loop where my signal would go into the pedal when I switch the loop on but if I don’t want to play into the input anymore and bypass the pedal that the delays, thus the output of the delay would still be summed to the guitar signal? Does it make sense even? I’m glad for some help :)

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

You'd have to get a wet and dry signals from your delay pedal go thru a mixer. You sum up those two signals and a mono out from a mixer to a return input of the loop 2 on Swiss Things.

[@camillemoussa1195]

Can you still use the FX loop of the amp with this pedal, for modulation and delay...? It seems not, unless I missed something.

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

Swiss Things is designed to be placed before the input of your amp. That being said, you can place it within the effects loop and it does work well. All of Swiss things's attributes have to be within your amp's effects loop.

[@charlesb7831]

I'm trying to get a Noise gate to work in my setup, but can't get it to gate properly regardless of setting. I run it in lloop1 with 5 drive pedals. And it's the Revv G8 using it with the G8s internal Loop to gate the drive pedals. I never see anything with the Swissthings and a gate involved. I've had my Swissthings for a couple years now.

[@XIIMonkeysMusicGroup]

What about with stereo effects? All these products I see, are setup for mono effects.

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

To use effects in full stereo, you will have to place them after Swiss Things with both outputs engaged.

[@briansloan1713]

So you should put your fuzz after the overdrive for this?

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

you can do that yes, in loop 1.

[@joshzenil]

I have a holy grail that I leave on always on my board. I was thinking of putting it in the a/b loop so it can always be on regardless of whether I'm using loop 1 or 2. This won't affect my setup negatively? Any input is appreciated!

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

A and B are outputs, not an effects loop. You can place it after output A or B. The buffers in Swiss Things may or may not affect your holy grail's sound in a way that you can notice. I think you will be alright though!

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

I suggest using Swiss Things before the input of your amp.

[@hatepaste]

Wish it would be set up for stereo FX. And what if you wanna use amp distortion or it’s effects loop. It’s almost there. Finally have the ability to turn on and off the buffer in each loop then it could be perfect.

[@fetch_happens]

Where would you place a noise gate?

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

It would depend on what your set up is like honestly. Before or after Swiss Things is where I would suggest depending on what you are trying to achieve

[@aaronduboise5277]

So could I have a clean and dirty amp and just use this to "move my pedalboard" in between the two with unplugging all the cables? Also could I have effects going for a part then turn off the loop and switch amps? If so this is probably the best thing I've ever seen!

[@EarthQuakerDevices]

You can do both of those things, yes.
