The BigShot EFX gives you the ability to take an entire chain of effects pedals in or out of your signal path with a single footswitch, providing you with a streamlined way to manage multiple pedals on stage. Two effects loops are provided and can be individually activated, or run simultaneously with Loop-1 feeding Loop-2 for even more creative options. You can also set up Loop-2 as a mute for silent tuning or instrument changeovers. Since each loop is true-bypass, it allows you to keep noisy or tone-robbing pedals out of the signal path when they are not needed.
