Information

The Essentials to Know About the Orange The Amp Detonator Pedal
• Ultra-silent active ABY to switch from one amp to another (A/B) or power both simultaneously (A+B) without "pop" or level loss.
• Two transparent buffered outputs: the signal remains solid, defined, and consistent, even with long cable runs on stage or in the studio.
• Built-in phase management: phase inverter to restore a full sound when two amps "clash" with each other.
• Internal power pump: charge pump circuit that increases headroom to preserve dynamics, attack, and presence.

Two Amps, a Tradition of "Large Format" Sound

Playing through two amps is one of the most effective recipes to broaden a guitar sound: a clean channel on one side, a crunch or distortion on the other, or even a wet/dry setup (effects on one side, dry sound on the other). The challenge isn't the idea... it's the execution: interference, ground loop hum, level differences, high-frequency loss, and phase issues can ruin the magic. The Amp Detonator was designed as a professional routing tool: compact, robust, and engineered to switch cleanly between two amps or combine them without degrading your tone.

Who Is The Amp Detonator For?

This pedal is aimed at guitarists who want to reliably manage a two-amp setup without a complicated rig: rock, blues, indie, funk, pop, modern metal (with a tight amp and a more open amp), or ambient when separating dry sound and an effects chain. It's ideal for live use (instant, clear switching without noise) as well as studio (double takes, reamping via two combos/heads, quick amp comparison).

Questions frequently asked

Can two amps be used at the same time with the Orange Amps The Amp Detonator?

A second footswitch activates outputs A and B simultaneously to operate two amps. A phase inverter corrects phase issues noticeable in A+B mode.

How to avoid hum with a dual amp guitar setup?

This pedal is designed to ensure reliable routing between two amps and reduce ground loop problems. Its buffered circuit also maintains level stability on a crowded pedalboard.

Does the switcher preserve the guitar's high frequencies?

The built-in buffer is designed to retain harmonics and attack clarity. The charge pump raises the internal voltage to 18 V, despite an external 9 to 12 V DC power supply. This design targets a clean signal over several meters of cable.

What power supply is required for this Orange pedal?

A 9 to 12 V DC power supply with negative center is required, drawing 12 mA.

Can a wet/dry setup be created with this pedal?

Channel selection A or B allows sending the dry signal to one amp and an effects chain to the other. The 95 x 65 x 130 mm dimensions facilitate pedalboard integration.
