ABY and STEREO ABY

“To A and B or not to B, in stereo – that is the question.” Enrico Shakespeare, ye-olde scribe of Berlin

Introducing the new range of KMA Machines ABY pedals – the first models in our Utility series! Affordable, expertly built in Berlin, mechanically noise-free and with our signature eye catching looks.

ABY boxes are very commonly used accessories and there are loads out there already. But why did we decide to make our own?

We’ve found that what’s on the market today is either generally low-cost, with clunky old-fashioned and annoying hard switches (that tend not to last) or they are highly specified and quite a lot more expensive than many people need, for simple ABY tasks at least.

Also why is it so difficult to find a simple ABY in a stereo format? This is a question that kept coming up in our team as we use many stereo devices daily here at KMA. We made a killer STEREO ABY switcher to use in our Berlin workshop and in the process, we found it extremely useful. So, we decided to now make it available to the world!

Created with a focus on durability, reliability, simplicity and hassle-free operation, both of these new passive ABY switchers feature KMA’s True Bypass 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 you what signal path you’ve selected, at a glance.

All you now have to do is choose your path and perform! To A, B or not to A&B – that is definitely the question!
