O
The hidden key of each pedalboard!
Obiwankenobi 02.07.2021
I will try to write this as much detailed as possible because I was looking to make the best for my 14 pedals on pedaboard.
Congrats to the manufacturer of Earthquaker devices. They deserved prizes for this pedal.
So pedal completely suppresses signal problems and the guitar sounds like it's plugged directly into the amp and the tone is so crisp, and you basically have a pedalboard full of pedals working in parallel.
There are 2 loops: Loop one is for distortion pedals, overdrives, boosters that don’t need a buffer and therefore sound great. Loop 2 is a buffered loop with a quality buffer that includes all modulation pedals like tremolo, chorus, reverb, delay, etc. Everything is connected and controlled through one pedal "Swiss Things". It's great for manipulation because in the middle of playing if you have a lot of effects turned on, in one switch you can turn them all off so you don't need to dance on the pedalboard.
This pedal has a built-in quality Earthquaker devices clean booster. Clean booster is so loud and gives a full tone just when you need it.
That's not all. It has a separate output for the Expression pedal and Tuner so these channels are isolated and don’t affect the tone with bad pedals.
That's not all. There is also an AB switch. So 2 amplifiers can be connected to this pedal and with one switch you can to change the amplifiers, for example if one amplifier is better for clean and the other for lead. It even has a switch for both + phase at once.
Swiss things have flexi switches (inform on internet about this cool function)...
Conclusion: What a pedal! But the biggest + is that purity of tone because of bypass that bypasses everything and goes directly into the amp and the tone is divine if you know what you want. Also switching to FX loop amplifiers does not make any problem.
Great recommendation

Das Herzstück meines Pedalboards
Progalt 21.08.2020
Mit dem Swiss Thing habe ich endlich mal Ordnung auf mein Board gebracht und den Steptanz zumindest etwas reduzieren können. Man muss ein wenig aufpassen, dass man bei an-/ausschalten eines Kanals nicht ausversehen den Boost trifft; das ist aber auch schon das einzige Problem, was aufgetaucht ist. Das Ding funktioniert einwandfrei, erfüllt seinen Zweck und ist eigentlich ein Muss auf jedem Board.

Enorm nützlich
Nigel Tufnel II 12.05.2021
Dieses Gerät hat sehr viele nützliche und sehr gut durchdachte Features. Das fängt bei der Möglichkeit an, ein Expression-Pedal für die Lautstärke zu verwenden geht über den eingebauten Cleanboost mit mächtig Reserve (hinter den Loops) und endet mit dem sehr guten Buffer, der aber erst nach Loop 1, also hinter der Zerre sitzt.
Der ABY-schalbare doppelte Output macht ein wet/dry-Setup zum Kinderspiel oder die Verwendung eines zweiten Amps für mehr Bums im Refrain (à la Ruben Block von Triggerfinger).
Wenn die Effektschleife (Loop 2) und Ausgänge jetzt noch stereo wären, wäre das Gerät perfekt.
