Effect blender.

I have looked (and seen all the other threads) but not too sure what I'm lookin' at. New to using effects. so I'm sorry for any ignorance!

I want to keep my bass signal all the time, then just get one of these effect loop blending things to bring in the distortion pedals i have.

Just want sommet as basic as you like and not have to rob a bank to get one! haha

Cheers.
Dan.
 
Preston/Wounded Paw,
Just a friendly heads up...definitely take the post down. You'll just get a warning from the admin dudes, but it's never fun.

OP - I have a blender from Wounded Paw that I built. It's the best thing I could ever ask for. It makes my muff SO usable! I'm able to break through the mix now.
 
Wounded Paw Blender user...it ended my search for such a pedal. I had done the LS-2 blender trick for a while and though it's a feasible cheap fix, there is some signal coloration. The Wounded Paw takes your straight clean tone and blend it with whatever your feeding through it...with no weird coloration issues.
 
I run effects in parallel ...

or you can build a tweaked out one using online DIY resources

(ok, I had some professional help)

it's based on this
http://www.runoffgroove.com/splitter-blend.html

with 2 blends to choose from, a phase switch and a passive volume & tone added to the clean sound
I'm satisfied with X-Blender, but I gotta say, that thing looks sharp. If I was in the market, I'd shamelessly rip off your stylish design.
