RapcoHorizon AB-1 A/B Passive Switching Box

Switch Between Amps Or Instruments With Ease

The RapcoHorizon AB-1 A/B Passive Switching Box is a practical solution for musicians who need to quickly switch between two amplifiers or two instruments during a performance or rehearsal. Designed for reliability and simplicity, this passive switcher eliminates the hassle of plugging and unplugging cables, keeping your setup efficient and stage-ready.

Built To Withstand Demanding Environments

Crafted from heavy-duty, powder-coated steel, the AB-1 is rugged enough to handle the demands of live performance, touring, and studio sessions. Its durable housing protects the internal components while offering a sturdy platform that will not shift or slide during use. Every unit is thoroughly tested to ensure long-lasting performance.

Clear LED Indicators For Confident Switching

Each channel is equipped with its own LED indicator light, powered by a 9V battery, to show which output is active. This feature provides instant visual feedback on stage, helping you avoid mistakes when switching between amps or instruments. Even if the battery is not installed, the AB-1 will continue to function as a passive device, ensuring uninterrupted operation.

Independent Footswitch Control For Flexibility

The AB-1 gives you complete control with individual footswitches for each output channel. This design allows you to toggle between outputs or activate both at once if needed. The rugged switches are built for repeated use, giving performers confidence in their gear no matter how many times they hit the pedal.

Convenient Input And Output Options

A paralleled 1/4" input/output jack expands the versatility of the AB-1 by allowing auxiliary connections, such as sending your signal to a tuner. This flexibility makes the unit valuable for both guitarists and bassists who want streamlined control without compromising tone or reliability.

Reliable Performance Without Power Requirements

Since the AB-1 is a passive switching box, it requires no external power to operate. The only purpose of the 9V battery is to power the LEDs, which means even if the battery dies mid-performance, the switching function will continue to work as intended. This ensures your rig stays dependable at all times.

An Essential Tool For Stage And Studio Rigs

Whether you’re performing live, recording in the studio, or setting up a versatile rehearsal space, the RapcoHorizon AB-1 offers a simple yet powerful way to manage multiple instruments or amps. Its rugged design, clear indicators, and reliable switching make it a must-have utility box for professional musicians and engineers.
