In Use:

 

The GigRig Three2One guitar selector features three inputs.  You can now switch easily between 1-3 
guitars or even line level inputs such as a keyboards or drum machines! 
 
After plugging your instruments in simply use the footswitch to cycle through them. Need more 
inputs? You can link 2 units together for up to 6 guitars.  
 
If you need to balance levels between differing instruments, then simply select the adjacent 
preamp button.  This engages the pre-amp gain controls next to the LED displays.  You can then 
easily cut or boost the individual inputs. 

 
About the GigRig Custom designed pre-amp: 

It’s awesome!

  We

’ve

 doubled the voltage internally from 9v to 18v, so the Three2One has massive 

input headroom and can easily cope with a huge range of differing guitar pickup types (including 
active pickups), but remains ultra clean and quiet.  
However, without the preamp selected, the guitar is true bypass; your guitar signal passes straight 
through. With the preamp selected (button pressed in) you can use the corresponding gain control 

to set your guitar’

s level, cut/ boost or simply set it to unity gain that will also give you a buffer, 

which helps keep your signal clean and strong over long cable runs. 
 

About the Optokick Footswitch 

The Three2one uses the exclusively TheGigRig designed Optokick 

footswitch.  It’s milled from

 

incredibly tough marine quality stainless steel.  The Optokick footswitch uses light instead of 
potentially un-reliable mechanical switching.  We firmly 

believe it’s the most r

eliable footswitch in 

the world! 

In Use: 

Using inputs one and two first; the Three2one will ignore the third input and will only switch 
between the two guitars in inputs in use. (

Blue

 and 

Green

). When input three is also used, then 

Three2one will then automatically sense a third input being connected and will cycle through all 3 
inputs. 

Option: More than three Guitars? Use two Three2one units! 

Connect two units together with a ¼” TRS (stereo) cable to connect up to 6 guitars. Pressing the 

footswitch on one unit will mute the other unit. You can use either 

units’ 

output to connect to your 

pedalboard or amplifier. 

 

Special Functions: 

Tip…

 

It’s best

 to disconnect the output before re-configuring your Three2one, or just turn down 

your amplifier if you prefer. To enter the 

Special Functions

 menu simply hold down the footswitch 

when applying power to the Three2one. You will then see some of the lights are on and others are 
off, this tells you the current configuration.  To change the configuration, press the footswitch once. 
The 

Red

 light will flash five times. If you press the footswitch again whilst the light is flashing the 

Red

 function will be toggled, you will see that the light will have changed its state.
