Members Player99 Posted April 2, 2012 Members Share Posted April 2, 2012 I found one made by Live Wire but are there others? Anything I should know about them? I want one to use with my Roland GR-55 Synth. It lets me feed a modeled guitar so I want to have the choice between my regular guitar, the synth guitar and both.

Members Eburst Posted April 3, 2012 Members Share Posted April 3, 2012 Try the Radial BigShot ABY. It has ground lift switching and phase inversion and it was about the same price as the Morley as I recall. I had the Morley for a while, but I was experiencing ground loop problems using a Fender and a Vox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bradino Posted April 3, 2012 Members Share Posted April 3, 2012 If I may somewhat hijack this thread right quick... Does running two instruments at once thru your pedal board weaken the signal? Or are there any cons to using one at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Player99 Posted April 3, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 3, 2012 It would boost your signal, everything being equal. Like double it with 2 guitars playing at once. This hot signal will likely cause pedals to overdrive and distort... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members conky Posted April 3, 2012 Members Share Posted April 3, 2012 Radial Bigshot. I had one when I was running a dual rig and I never had bleed over or ground loops or anything. I did with another AB/Y box though, I can't remember what brand it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members brokenfixed Posted April 3, 2012 Members Share Posted April 3, 2012 I got the live wire cause $30 is enough for a 1 into 2 metal box. No noises on my end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
