Quartermaster Guitar Effects / FX Switcher

Description
Warranty Information

Simple loop switching for your pedals

High-quality true bypass strip loop control for your effects pedals. Compact easy switching solution to keep your tone intact.

TheGigRig QMX has all the same great features as the standard QuarterMaster including;

1. Uses TheGigRig 'True Bypass' relay technology keeping your tone perfectly intact and your switching quiet.
2. Tough aluminium enclosure and small footprint will keep your pedalboard light and compact
3. Uses the new GigRig 'OptoKick' Optical Foot switch which we believe is the most reliable foot switch in the world.

PLUS, the QMX has a very clever ace up its sleeve.

Each loop has a push button next to the loop return that gives you the option to turn a standard loop into a flip/flop loop.
Instantly switch between any selected loops while adding other loops on top. Its great if there are effects on your board that you never stack like multiple delays, or drive units.
By using the QMX returns as instrument inputs you can easily and quietly switch between your favourite guitars

For your simple compact board, TheGigRig QuarterMaster QMX just makes life that little bit easier.

Great equipment

Posted by David on 19th Jun 2020

This is my first The GigRig purchase. I'm returning to playing guitar after many years not even owning an instrument. I'm starting again from scratch to build up my pedals. I can't be more impressed with the build quality and it does exactly what I wanted..... 10/10

QMX 8

Posted by Kristan Holmes on 20th Jan 2020

Just awesome. A really good quality product. I fail to see how any other non programmable switcher could be any better. Works, looks and feels great! I'm doing more tap dancing though as I enjoy using it

Quartermaster

Posted by Graham Kelly on 16th Dec 2019

Picked one of these up to finish off my pedalboard build. This has to be the best non-programable switcher in the world right now. These guys have though of everything. The Jack's are spaced out well. The LEDs are nice and bright but not to bright, The switches are very silent and are very well engineered. The strip is very lightweight and is not bulky like other brands. The flip/flop function is very useful. In my opinion, this is the best switcher money can buy. I use 2 of the gig right isolators to power most of the pedals and my rig is completely quiet and all pedals sound the way they should sound.

For a cleaner, more functional board

Posted by Walther Jochen on 23rd Aug 2019

The 8 switches are more than enough. In my case, the Fuzz Factory, a compressor and the Wah go before it, three gain stages, combinations of modulation effects and delays respectively, the Strymon Flint and a solo boost can now be activated without stepping all over the board. The QMX - 8 is very compact, so tapping in the tempo on the delays doesn't interfere with its switches. I really look forward to the possibilty to deactivate a loop by just activating another one; it will make life much more easy.

Perfect... and not an entry level product

Posted by Vincent on 20th Mar 2019

Very happy with it. First of, I quit dancing switching pedals. And that’s already a huge point.
Second... sound is already improved. A lot. Even I didn’t receive my Evidence Audio cables yet.
Very very good product.

Awesome product

Posted by Tom Roberts on 22nd Aug 2018

The QMX 8 is a brilliant strip looper and deserves it's professional status. It has greatly improved my pedal board and I would recommend this to anyone looking for a top quality strip looper. The delivery was also outstanding only taking 2 days.

QMX 8

Posted by Tom Gray of Gray Guitars on 19th Mar 2018

The perfect solution for a big board. The build quality is exemplary, and audio wise, it's flawless and quiet. Coupled with the Generator and Distributors, Isolators and various Doublers etc., the QMX has given me the best sound that I have ever had. Believe me, if you are on the fence, just buy one.
