Sign in to disble this ad
I have been planning my board for a while, and the latest plan I have come up with requires parallel processing. My first thought for this was mini mixers, however, after some further thought and discussion (thanks Sean!) I have decided that I want stomp switches for each channel.
What I want is a 4-loop bypass pedal with a volume control for each loop, but I want the loops to be parallel, not series, so all of the loops need to be buffered. It would effectively be a splitter and mixer all in one box.
Are there any pedals on the market that do this? Are there any companies that would build this for me? Could I build this myself at home? If so, where can I find schematics for this type of device?

Oh, and *curtsies* you're welcome.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Portland, OR | | I got a dual parallel looper similar to this from the builder in that link. I don't know if he would build you something in 3 or 4 loops, but it wouldn't hurt to contact him. My whole sound is built on this thing. Being able to go HOG in parallel with a BMS is a fantastic thing. If you can ignore my awful vocals (I've gotta recut that sometime to remove those :P) the rest of this ditty is one continuous track with my HOG -> G2.1u in parallel with my BMS. It starts getting interesting around the 1:40 mark. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
