Here's some spec's on this sweet system. It's a "Matrix" system, meaning that it has the ability to change all of it's routings on every preset.

 

Instead of being tied to one signal flow you can have any signal flow you want, when you want. Which is pretty handy for score music composer & guitar instrumental musician who has to constantly change the signal flow.

 

The switcher has a software interface that allows you to create an icon for each device and it's corresponding input(s) & Output(s), then using the mouse, connect the rig you want to have at that moment with no extra devices connected to the signal path for the cleanest path possible from pick ups to speakers.

 

A matrix switcher has 16x Inputs & 16x Outputs, so we decided to put 5 switchers in this system, connected them to each other & bunch of other cool gear. Each switcher has a "Group" responsibility:

1. "Master" - Magnetic & Piezo Inputs + 4x Amplifiers + 1 Axe FX ("Front End" of 4 Wire Config) + Multiple Connections to the other Switchers

2. "Harmonics" - Octave, Fuzz & Overdrive devices.

3. "Dynamics" - Compressors, EQ's Filters, Synthesizers.

4. "Modulations" - Chorus, Phaser, Flanger, UniVibe, & Tremolo.

5. "Time" - Delays & Reverbs + Axe FX ("Back End") for Reverb, Delay & Looper.

 

Any order & combination of series & parallel is possible, the possibilities for signal routings are only limited by the player's imagination...
