Hello All,
I'd like to be able to plug into some kind of outboard switch what would let me select
either channel of my Walter Woods Ultra individually while muting the other channel. An
A/B switch works great if you're using the same EQ for both instruments but that's not
what I'm after. I want to be able to toggle between two different EQ's one for DB the
other for EB while muting the channel that I'm not currently using. Any Ideas?
 
The obvious and probably cheapest solution, albeit a rather cumbersome one, would be two A/B switches. One where the instruments go in, and the output of that switch into the next A/B reversed, and from there into the two inputs of the Woods.

Sounds like "happy tap-dancing". But then again both basses can go into either channel without plug futzing.
