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 Improvement To My Board
The Quartermaster is an excellent product. It is well designed and very well made. The functinonality is simple and straightforward, with the unit providing an essential upgrade to a board with multiple pedals. The most significant improvement this unit made to my board was a reduction in noise, compared to running the signal through every pedai in succession, even if not in use. Putting the pedals into the loops of the Quartermaster made an instantaneous reduction in noise and an increase in signal preservation. One reason I bought the unit was I was disappointed at how much texture and detail was being lost by sending the signal from my guitar through a bunch of pedals before the front of the amp, compared to just plugging into the amp directly. This was an especially acute difference when playing clearn or with light boost/overdrive. By removing unnecessary pedals from the signal path, the resultant sound is much improved. Adding this unit also helped me better organise my board, both in terms of the pedal placement as well as the wiring. You will need more patch cables though (two per pedal as opposed to three per two pedals) and make sure you have a powersupply on your board with sufficient power to power the Quartermaster. Finally, the thing is built really well. It is a joy to use and will last a long time. This was money very, very well spent. Thank you Dan and team! Cheers.

QMX - 8
Purchased mainly to make life easier flipping between various drives & Compression...which it does effortlessly, but the added bonus of getting my amps sound back was a welcome surprise....the original tone had deteriorated far more than I thought with 9 pedals in series....a welcome back to my low end and high end that had disappeared over the past few years. Great job Gigrig.....many thanks !

Nice piece of equipment
Needed to do less ballett on my pedalboard and clean up my pedal chain. Love the simplicity and sturdiness. Can´t wait for covid to be over so I can bring it to a gig.

Great equipment
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
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
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.
