Created with a focus on durability, reliability, simplicity, and hassle-free operation, these passive ABY pedals feature KMA’s TrueBypass active silent relay-based soft-switching.
ABY boxes are very commonly available accessories from a multitude of manufacturers, so why did KMA decide to make their own? What’s on the market today is either generally low-cost, with clunky and loud switches (that tend not to last) or they are highly specified and therefore quite a lot more expensive than many people need.
In addition, it is difficult to find an inexpensive and simple ABY device in a stereo format. With the popularity of stereo pedals, KMA made a great little STEREO ABY Device to use in their Berlin workshop and in the process found it extremely useful. So, the brand decided to make it available as a pedal to the world.
Created with a focus on durability, reliability, simplicity, and hassle-free operation, these passive ABY pedals also feature KMA’s TrueBypass active silent relay-based soft-switching, to reduce mechanical noise and those nasty unwanted pops and clicks when in use. The 3 distinct LEDs also quickly and easily show exactly which signal path has been selected at a glance.
