May 19, 2004

Designed and developed in response to requests from guitar players who use lots of effects pedals, but have been frustrated by having to press several footswitches in order to turn multiple pedals on and off, Carl Martin offers the Combinator 2. The Combinator 2 is a non-MIDI programmable effects switching system that handles up to eight pedals. Each pedal is connected to one of eight individual effects loops (two with stereo returns), and then assigned to one or more of 18 groups. Pushing the program switch for a group simultaneously engages all of the pedals assigned to it. So, for example, if you have a fuzz, a wah, and a chorus assigned to program switch 1, pressing that switch will turn them all on or off. The Combinator 2 features 18 programs, tuner output, master mute, and external switching on loops 1, 2, and 3, each with a separate jack. Programming is straightforward. Just select a bank and press one of the program buttons, press the soft buttons corresponding to enable the pedals you want to include, press store, and you're done. The Combinator 2 also features a power supply, providing eight individual 9-volt taps(Boss/Ibanez style polarity) , one for each pedal. MSRP: $770.00. Estimated street price: $536.
