Can anyone point me in the direction of some manufacturers of blend/mix pedals where you can mix an effect to your dry signal.... I've heard of xotic and Radial but would like to know of any alternatives, preferably true bypass...
thanks |

Get it with the phase switch if you go this route. I got one with the expression control as well, it works great. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Nov 2008 Location: Hollywood | | Dang, just found this. I've been looking at some other blender and looper options and I think the wounded paw may be the trick I'm looking for. I've wanted a blend and a boost control. Barge looks like you can get one or the other, but BANG both in one pedal 
I'm currently running an MXR Blow Torch and an EHX SMMH which each have blend knobs, but I'm also running a 105q bass wah and just added a Subdecay Noisebox, which don't have blends. I need to give some thought to how I'd rig my board (do I loop all my pedals, or just the ones without blends, or some combo???), but the Wounded Paw may be the ticket!

i use the barge VBF-2 and have problems with the drop in volume, pretty sizeable actually. i still haven't isolated it, but i'd much rather have the option to boost everything...

So I'm still looking, albeit with a better idea of what I want now, I just need to find someone to build it. Preferably in the UK with the exchange rate what it is.  |

It wasn't a deal killer for me as I don't usually need the boost and currently I have some extra gain from both the BMS and Holy Stain. Good luck. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
