            2. Two guitars into one rig, live or in the studio. Here the 2 channels are input channels, one for each guitar, with the output going to the pedal board or amp

Example 2
3. Silent tuning in a live gig environment.  Your guitar is input with one output channel to your amp, the other to the input of your electronic tuner.  This is a very popular use for passive A/B switches.
Example 3

4. Very useful function for studio rig set up or testing different effects pedals. Here the A/B switch is used as a "Kill" switch.  Locate the A/B switch box at the end of your effects chain and use it to switch off the input while you unplug/plug in different pedals to try out in your rig.
