The Barn3 OXU Mini is an aux switch designed to unlock the full potential of your digital guitar effects pedals. This compact, pedalboard-friendly box includes four compatibility settings, which enable it to work with virtually any aux-equipped stompbox in existence. You get two footswitches, which can be expanded to three with the addition of Barn3’s Tesla Tap. Moreover, the OXU Mini’s patent-pending form factor pairs seamlessly with Eventide’s H9 and Dot9 series pedals, Meris and Source Audio pedals, and BOSS’s 200 series pedals, enabling you to install it directly under the aux-enabled pedal without stealing extra pedalboard real estate. The OXU Mini comes complete with an 11.5-inch TRS cable, a power adapter for use with BOSS pedals, a Barn3 sticker, and a Barn3 guitar pick.

What can you do with an aux switch?

Do you ever wish that your favorite digital pedal had a couple more footswitches? If so, you’re not alone. In fact, many guitarists share your frustration. After all, once you program your pedal’s onboard footswitches to control the requisite hands-free functions, there’s nothing left to handle but patch navigation. That’s where aux switches like the Barn3 OXU come in. With one of these boxes, you’ll be able to program your pedal’s built-in footswitches to tackle crucial functions, such as bypass and tap tempo, while offloading other oft-used commands, such as preset banking and patch selection, to the OXU. Just imagine — no more bent-over, finger-fumbling preset diving in the midst of a performance.

Vast compatibility

As you’d imagine, different pedal manufacturers implement aux functionality in different ways. That’s why Barn3 outfitted the OXU with four compatibility settings. To conform the OXU to your specific pedal, you adjust its rear-panel switch to N (Normal — Eventide, Line 6, Source Audio, DigiTech), S (Strymon), M (Meris), or B (BOSS). If you’re using the OXU with a BOSS pedal, you also move the bottom-panel switch from N/S/M to the B position and plug in the included BOSS-style power adapter. Thanks to these compatibility settings, you’ll be able to use the OXU with virtually every aux-equipped pedal around.
