BeatBuddy Dual Footswitch
When you pair the Footswitch+ with the BeatBuddy or BeatBuddy MINI it gives you even more control over the beat. Right out of the box you get the ability to trigger accent hits, pause/unpause the beat, and navigate songs, genre, and tempo. However, when used with the BeatBuddy, you can do even more with the Footswitch+ like setting it to act as the main pedal.
But, it doesn’t stop there! The Footswitch+ is hands down the best multipurpose 2 button footswitch on the market. It’s built like a tank, is more comfortable than a footswitch has any right to be, and offers quiet, momentary switches.
Features:
- It lets you add accent hits, pause/unpause the beat, and choose song, genre and BPM, and more when used with the BeatBuddy or BeatBuddy MINI
- Ergonomically designed buttons and a slim, angled housing make it the world’s most comfortable footswitch
- Built to last with sturdy metal switch components and an all metal housing
- Momentary switches result in quiet, smooth operation and the ability to both press and hold the button for separate commands
- Use the included 1/4″ low profile right-angle TRS stereo cable or substitute it for your own stereo cable
