Sonicake Sonic ABY Pedal Demo/Review! Such a Useful Guitar Pedal!

[@Jonw8222]

It's a passive powered pedal. When you are connecting 9V, you are literally only powering the LED to tell you if it's on or not. I understand that might be helpful in some situations, but if you are A/Bing between a clean and dirty amp for example.. not really required.. you are going to know which one is which.

[@erwocoolis9451]

Very useful, if you want the noise gate to be after the preamp, but the noise gate detection right after the guitar/tuner. Split the signal and run a clean signal to something like the ISP Decimator's DECT IN, or, in my case, the input of a Boss GT-1000core (while beeing in 4CM with an amp head via it's other 2 inputs).

I got a buzz if I connected to both amps via cable. If I send the signal to one of the amps with a wireless transmitter/receiver it goes away. Luckily I had a spare one, if not I would of been very disappointed. Aside from that it was awesome. It's great to AB amps as well. And for anyone wondering, you don't need to connect it to a 9v adapter for it to work, the 9v is for the light.

And I just bought a pedal Sonicake Sonic ABY box that serves what I need but I don't know if the order of the pedals changes and this pedal would be the first in my chain of pedals

[@RobertStubbs]

Quick and handy way to switch between amps nice one mate

[@RobGalley]

Thanks man, Yeah this thing is awesome!

[@Taylor___]

That is super handy! I like having the idea of two guitars plugged into the same amp for quick switching. You can blend two sounds together a bit like Metallica always did with the Mesa Boogie and Diezel amps before switching to Axe FX. Good vid man

[@RobGalley]

Thanks man, It’s such a cool little pedal. Having two amps at once blended is killer!

[@relicangelo77dg76]

grazie sei stato chiarissimo, come dovrebbero essere tanti altri. ;)

[@williammorillo657]

Hello, I would like to ask you, I have 7 analog pedals in their order they are: Tuner, Wha Wha, Compressor, Distortion, Noise gate, Flanger and Delay and I need to know or find which controller pedal serves me to cancel the entire chain of pedals that I have active and remain in the clean channel of the "(acoustic)" amplifier, so that at the time of resuming I only step on the pedal and I have the chain that I had in the beginning turned on again

[@fernaodmc]

Great review! What would happen if you press the pedal by 10:10? Mute both guitars? Mute just channel A or channel B? Or nothing? Thanks a lot.

[@83RED]

What about phase issues? Fender Amps has inverted outputs related to marshall amps i.e. does this pedal have an phase inverter switch?

[@phillyraynelson]

What if I had a rig w/ say 20 pedals call it A (living room). Then I had a smaller rig, say 6 pedals call it B. I plug (20 pedals) on the left A. I Plug (six pedals) on the right B. Could I go back & forth ?

[@GCCork]

Hey, did you find out the answer to this ? I've the same question ! Cheers

[@Funkfreed]

can I use this pedal to have sound on both my left and right studio monitor? my problem is I only get sound from my left(mono) channel coming from my pedals

[@jamescandlish7097]

Could I use this pedal at the end of my pedalboard after my preamp to go into an amp head, and also to go into a mixing desk?

[@GunnyLibres]

does it suck your tone?

[@NoLuckTheBand]

when you run a single input with two amps in the Y setting, will the foot switch do anything? like kill one amp signal when u push it?

[@JulioJustiniano]

Nothing happens.

[@lewispatrickmusic]

How does the wiring work on this? I want to record 2 channels at the same time, one direct from the guitar, into this pedal into an interface to get a direct clean and unedited channel, and the second into my helix floor then into an interface, would the guitar go into the A and then B direct into hellix and Y directly into the interface, or the guitar into Y and helix and direct to interface go into the A and B input?

[@troyshaffer1663]

You would do guitar into Y and the helix and interface in A & B

[@cugir321]

No ground lift.....you should have talked about that...but maybe you don't know.

[@RobGalley]

@@cugir321 nope, I’ve never heard of that.

[@Guitarmickey23]

I've got one. Fine as an A/B pedal but, when you hit the switch it's just a splitter and can't toggle between A and A+B which would be way, way more useful and BTW make it a true ABY pedal. Using it as a Y cord is really lame. They should just lose that slide switch and make it an A/B and save $$ on not have that extra slide switch.

[@rodher12]

What about noise or interference on this switch? I want to buy one but I'm afraid on that side (noise). Tia

[@juanjuan6302]

could you touch smell like teen spirit or i was made for lovin you with the guitar?
