Total Rig Control. Zero Compromise.

Mastermind PBC/10

10 Audio Loops

6 loops are mono, 4 loops are stereo-capable. All loops are true bypass and relay switched for maximum transparency.

LCD Display

The main LCD display shows the status of all loops, buffers and other audio features. Viewable in all lighting conditions.

11 Footswitches

11 footswitches, each with a multi-color LED. Footswitches can be reassigned to different functions using the Mastermind Editor app.

USB Connectivity

Two USB connectors, one for connection to a computer, the other for loading and saving settings to a flash drive.

Built for Complex Rigs

THE PBC/10 IS DESIGNED FOR PLAYERS WHO HAVE OUTGROWN TRADITIONAL SWITCHERS AND NEED A CENTRAL BRAIN FOR THEIR ENTIRE SYSTEM.

Mastermind PBC/10

It brings together audio switching, MIDI control, and amp switching in a way that keeps everything fast, organized, and performance-ready.

Whether you're running multiple drive stages, stereo ambient effects, rack gear, or MIDI-controlled processors, the PBC/10 keeps everything synchronized and instantly recallable.

AUDIO SWITCHING POWER

10 Loops. Complete Control.

At the core of the PBC/10 is a powerful 10-loop audio switching system that allows you to build large, flexible pedalboard configurations without losing clarity or control.

Each loop can be independently assigned, engaged, or bypassed per preset, giving you the ability to build completely different signal paths for every song or section of a set.

Stereo compatibility and advanced routing options make it ideal for both traditional mono rigs and modern stereo or wet/dry/wet setups.

MIDI INTEGRATION

One Controller for Your Entire Rig

The PBC/10 is more than a switcher—it is a full MIDI command center.

It can send any type of MIDI message to control:

  • Multi-effects processors
  • MIDI-enabled pedals
  • Rack units
  • Amp modelers
  • Loopers and switching systems

Each preset can instantly reconfigure your entire rig, syncing analog and digital gear so everything changes together with a single footswitch press.

AMP CONTROL & FUNCTION SWITCHING

Switch Amps Without Thinking

With dedicated function switches, the PBC/10 allows direct control of amplifier channels, boost functions, and other 1/4-inch switchable amp features.

This makes it easy to move between clean, rhythm, and lead tones without additional footswitches cluttering your board.

Everything is centralized, everything is instant, and everything is recallable.

SIGNAL FLEXIBILITY

Designed for Real-World Signal Chains

Modern rigs are rarely simple—and the PBC/10 is built with that reality in mind.

It supports:

  • Complex gain staging
  • Stereo effects routing
  • Parallel processing setups
  • Hybrid analog + digital systems

Instead of forcing your rig into a rigid structure, it adapts to how you actually play.

WHY PLAYERS CHOOSE IT

Less Complexity. More Control.

The PBC/10 is trusted by players who need reliability and flexibility in equal measure.

Instant Preset Changes

Switch entire rigs with a single press.

Centralized Control

Replace multiple switchers, controllers, and MIDI devices.

Touring Reliability

Built for consistent performance night after night.

Creative Freedom

Build sounds that would be impossible with traditional switching systems.

Mastermind PBC/10 Features
  • 10 audio loops, arranged in a group of 4 loops, a group of 2 loops and another group of 4 loops, with insert points in between
  • True-bypass switching – the best for preserving your guitar’s tone!
  • The last four loops are stereo capable using TRS jacks
  • Each of the last four loops can be switched between series and parallel routing, using an internal line mixer
  • The two outputs can be used as left and right outputs for a stereo signal, or as A and B outputs to A/B switch a mono signal between two amps
  • The B output has a switchable isolation transformer and a programmable phase switch
  • Three audio buffers, each of which can be enabled or disabled by IA button or as part of a preset (before loop 1, before loop 7 and after loop 10)
  • Click Stopper noise reduction circuit, which can be switched between two positions (before loop 7 or after loop 10)
  • 11 buttons, each with a multi-color LED indicator
  • Buttons are user configurable – any button can be set to any function and LED color
  • Easy to read backlit LCD display that can display preset and song names, plus other status
  • Built in tuner
  • MIDI input & output connections, powered by the MIDI “brain” of our Mastermind GT controller
  • USB device port for connection to a PC or Mac. This allows the Mastermind PBC to send MIDI commands to a computer, or to communicate with the Mastermind PBC editor software.
  • USB host port for use with a USB thumb drive. Back up and restore settings to a flash drive, and also use a flash drive to perform firmware upgrades
  • Two 1/4-inch TRS jacks that provide four function switches. These can be used to control the channel switching and other features on an amplifier
  • Expression pedal input that can be programmed to generate MIDI messages
  • External switch input allows two more switches to be added. These switches can be programmed to perform any function
  • Mac and PC editor software allows for faster and more comprehensive editing, including deep MIDI editing and changing button layouts.
  • 3 year limited warranty
