You might want to take a look at the D-TAR Solstice, which has had some good user reviews here. http://www.d-tar.com/solstice.shtml

It seems to lack the all-important (at least to me) high-pass filter that is so useful with a piezo pickup. How about this?

the origional poster wanted a 2 channel blender...i wish fishman made the platinum bass in 2 channels. i'd be all over it. the D-tar is nice. both inputs are 10 meg ohms, which i think is important, but if you download the manual, you'll see that the EQ points are not really great for bass. (same with the raven labs blender) this can be overcome by running the output from the unit into the normal input of your bass amp and using those tone controls once the signal is mixed and buffered...

D-TAR Solstice looks really nice. A heve not experience, but it seems fine for blending two signals together...Thanks for tips ....
