1. A bypass switching system comprising:
a switching unit adapted for routing signals; a signal effects unit; an output interconnect unit coupled with said switching unit via a first signal path; an input interconnect unit coupled with said switching unit via a second signal path; a switch state detection unit coupled with said switching unit; and a signal conditioning unit coupled with said switching unit via a third signal path and fourth signal path, with said switch state detection unit, and with said signal effects unit, wherein said bypass switching system is configured to transition between a first state and a second state by executing a sequenced set of events controlled in part from said switch state detection unit.
