The BOSS LS-2 Line Selector pedal allows you to switch easily between several different effects and route input and output signals flexibly.
What does a Boss LS-2 do?
I see the LS2 being used in many different ways, regardless of Genre. You can use it as a Clean Boost, an A/B Switch, an Output Switcher, a Bypass Looper, a Mixer or a Dual-Channel Effects Loop Controller.
How do you use the Boss LS-2?
Set the LS-2 up first in the chain, in A->B->Bypass mode. Plug the guitar into the main input, and go out to the rest of the chain from the main output. The LS-2 will now serve as the main buffer, and bypass mode is your baseline level while A and B can be adjusted to create two alternate signal levels.
How do you activate two pedals at once?
The best option is to utilize a ‘pedal switcher’ to turn on/off a group of pedals simultaneously. These devices sync with your guitar pedals, enabling you to create custom patches. It allows you to enable and disable a selected group of effects, condensing your switching to just a few pedals.
How do you hook up a pedal switcher?
To set up a switching system, just connect your pedals to the loop jacks on the rear of the switcher using short jack cables, then program the combinations you need for your set.

3 poles, double throw
“3PDT” is 3 poles, double throw, equivalent to 3 SP and DT switches controlled by two circuits.
Do you need an FX loop for a looper pedal?
Re: Question – Looper pedal with amp without effects loop Yes, it works ok. Not the same as through an amp with fx loop, but it’ll suffice. AND you will learn a lot on how the guitar can sound just by turning a knob.
