Here's what Radial say about the ShotGun Instrument Buffer & Splitter

The Shotgun makes it easy to drive multiple amplifiers cleanly and in phase without buzz or hum from ground loops. In mono operation, connect to input-1 of the Shotgun and you can feed up to four amps simultaneously. For stereo setups, the Shotgun automatically reconfigures when both inputs are used; feeding input-1 to the first two amplifiers, and input-2 to the second pair. Isolation transformers and ground lifts are included on the outputs to eliminate ground loop noise, along with 180° polarity reverse switches to ensure all amps are phase-matched.

Key Features

  • 1×4 mono or 2×2 stereo operation
  • Isolated outputs eliminate buzz and hum
  • Buffered outputs prevent signal loss
  • 180° polarity switches to phase-match amps

Using the Shotgun in 1×4 mono-mode
The Shotgun gives you total freedom to connect your pedalboard output to amps, effects or the PA. The isolated outputs eliminate nasty ground loop hum.

Using the Shotgun in 2×2 stereo-mode
Plug in your stereo chorus and the Shotgun delivers a noise-free stereo signal as it automatically rebalances the load to retain your tone.

Using the Shotgun in the studio
Use the Shotgun to split your guitar signal to various effects, amps and a direct box so that you can Reamp your guitar solo later on.

Buffer

A buffer pedal protects your tone when your signal has a long journey to travel. As cables and multiple pedals build up, high frequencies can fade and your sound can lose clarity. A buffer restores strength and sparkle, keeping your signal full, punchy, and consistent from guitar to amp.

Use a buffer at the start of a large pedalboard, after vintage true-bypass chains, or anywhere your tone feels dull or weak. It doesn’t add gain or colour — it simply preserves what you already have, making sure your core sound arrives exactly as it should.

Chorus

A chorus pedal thickens and widens your tone by subtly duplicating your signal and shifting it slightly out of tune and time. The result is movement — shimmering cleans, liquid arpeggios, and that unmistakable 80s swirl that makes single notes feel fuller and chords sound expansive. From gentle sparkle to deep, watery modulation, chorus adds dimension without overwhelming your core sound.

Use it to bring life to clean passages, soften driven tones, or create spacious textures that sit beautifully in a band mix. Whether you’re after subtle depth or bold, warbling character, a chorus pedal is a simple way to make your guitar sound bigger, richer, and more immersive.

DI

A DI pedal (Direct Injection) lets you send your signal straight to a mixing desk or audio interface with clarity and confidence. It converts your instrument’s output into a balanced signal, reducing noise and allowing for longer cable runs without losing quality. Whether you’re playing live or recording, a good DI keeps your tone clean, controlled, and stage-ready.

Use a DI to go direct at a gig, split your signal between amp and PA, or capture a pure track in the studio. It’s a practical, dependable tool that ensures what leaves your pedalboard arrives exactly as intended — solid, noise-free, and ready for the mix.

New

This is brand new, fresh in, and a UK warranty is included. New Gear always comes from trusted UK music retailers.

used

Used pedals bring character, value, and often a bit of history to your board. Whether it’s a well-loved classic or a recent release looking for its next home, a used pedal offers the same core tone at a more accessible price. Fully tested and described clearly, it’s a chance to grab great gear without paying brand-new money.

Go used to explore different sounds, track down discontinued favourites, or build your setup more affordably. Sometimes a pedal with a few marks on the casing still delivers flawless tone — and might even have a story or two behind it.
