About This Item
Description
A hands-free, dual-button footswitch that unlocks the BeatBuddy's deeper control — accent hits, pause/play, tap tempo, and song/genre navigation — so you never have to bend down mid-song.
Why guitarists choose this pedal
- Purpose-built exclusively as a BeatBuddy/BeatBuddy Mini 2 accessory — not a general-purpose MIDI or amp footswitch
- Momentary (not latching) switches allow nuanced, press-and-hold behaviors like accent hits versus pause/play
- Angled, all-metal construction designed to survive touring and accidental drops
- Fully assignable functions per switch, per play-state (playing vs. stopped), directly from the BeatBuddy's own menu
Controls and switches
- Left momentary footswitch – default: triggers an assignable accent hit while playing; can be reassigned (e.g., tap tempo, jump to main BeatBuddy switch function) when the song is stopped
- Right momentary footswitch – default: pause/unpause the beat while playing; press-and-hold when stopped to browse genre/song folders

Frequently asked questions
Is this footswitch compatible with BeatBuddy 2?
It is designed for the original BeatBuddy and BeatBuddy Mini 2; BeatBuddy 2 uses Singular Sound's newer multiswitch ports and is also compatible with the SuperSwitch controller for expanded control.
Does it use a standard guitar-pedal cable?
No — it uses a single 1/4-inch TRS (stereo) cable, not a standard mono instrument cable; a compatible cable is included.
What's the difference between momentary and latching switches here?
Momentary switches only activate while held down, allowing more nuanced control (like triggering an accent only on press) versus latching switches which toggle a state on/off.
Can I change what each footswitch does?
Yes — from the BeatBuddy's Footswitch settings menu you can reassign each switch's function both while a song is playing and while it's stopped (e.g., accent hit, pause/play, tap tempo, half/double time, song/genre navigation).
Is it compatible with third-party dual momentary footswitches instead?
The BeatBuddy is compatible with standard momentary or latching dual footswitches using a single TRS 1/4-inch output (not ABY switches), but the Footswitch+ is Singular Sound's purpose-matched official accessory.
