Check out this Loop pedal!

Has anyone seen anyting like this before? It allows you to blend 2 loops in parallel, like running 3 chanels at once- loop 1, loop 2, and your blended in dry signal. Awsome! Can anyone provide links to more similar products- parallel loop pedals (I've seen the X-Blender)?

I'm getting a single loop version from a friend of mine. Not really difficult to make if you know electronics well but I'm no the kind of guy who can make a PCB based on a wiring schematic so I let him to do it

I got an email from Barge recently, they are now doing dual blenders just like that. Cannot post links I'm afraid, pesky iPhone!

Hi there! Bob here. My first post... Finally decided to register.

Anyways, on the topic at hand; I've had a talented tech-guy make me something along these principles. A multiple looper with volume on each return combined with a blender for wet and dry signal after the loopers. In one word, brilliant!
The reason I wanted volume on the loops obviously has something to do with playing bass. I can imagine you won't need that volume-knob when playing guitar. I found that no matter how high the gain and volume settings on my overdrive were, (just using a dry-wet-blender takes a lot from the 'amount' of the effect) my sound always got lost in the live-mix when using od's. By adding boost everything turned out superduper.

If it's a user's opinion you want, I prefer the above looper (or at least the concept) because of the volume-knob, above a simple (just a switch) looper. Especially when playing loud music I think you need the added volume to make up for the loss in bottom on almost all pedals.

How much is it anyway?

Greetz, Bob.

It's not what it does. It allows one of the channels with a clean blend or both channels together.
The nearest product you could find would be the Boss LS-2.
None other on the market as far as I know.

Actually that IS what this pedal does, I had one for a bit.

I dont think the LS-2 can run its loops in parallel, according the the manual they are "in series"

Then you read the manual wrong. The LS-2 runs parallel only. It can also clean blend if you leave one loop empty.
Could you explain how you get both signals on with clean blending at the same time on the upper pedal ? I don't see which setting would allow it and the description on eBay never said it could.

I guess it's the part that says "in series" that I read wrong

You are correct that the ebay description doesn't say it can do both signals with the blending... but it can and it did
