In More Detail
The FS-1 footswitch is the simplest way to expand your amp’s functionality without adding clutter or complexity. It uses a latching mechanism to switch channels, turn reverb on/off, or activate other assignable features on compatible amps remotely. The unit is built into a heavy-duty steel chassis, ensuring it can withstand repeated stomps in rehearsal or on stage. An integrated LED indicator shows the switch’s current status at a glance, especially useful on dark stages. Because of its passive design, the FS-1 requires no power supply or battery, making it ideal for pedalboards where space and simplicity matter.
It connects via a standard mono jack cable (not included) and is compatible with a wide range of Orange amps as well as other gear that uses a latching footswitch. Whether you’re toggling clean and dirty channels or switching effects, the FS-1 keeps things solid, simple, and reliable.
Simplicity that works
The FS-1 is designed with one goal in mind: reliable switching, every time. Its latching design gives you on/off control for amp features like reverb or channel switching, with no menus, modes, or extra cabling required: just plug in and stomp. It’s the kind of tool that quietly does its job in the background, letting you focus on playing. Perfect for minimal setups or extensive pedalboards, the FS-1 delivers unfussy functionality in a compact form.
Built for the road
Despite its size, the FS-1 is no lightweight. Its steel chassis and rugged switch mechanism are built to take the rigours of live performance. Whether it’s being tossed in a gig bag or stomped on night after night, it’s made to last. This is a piece of gear you won’t have to think twice about: a tough, trustworthy companion for stage, studio, or rehearsal room.
No power needed
The FS-1 is fully passive, meaning it requires no external power. That’s one less plug, one less cable, and one less thing to go wrong. The bright LED runs directly from the amp connection (when supported), offering visual confirmation of your switch’s status without needing a battery or PSU. It’s ideal for clean, streamlined pedalboards, and for players who just want their gear to work, without any faff.
