Love or Hate for Wounded Paw Blender V4?

My LS-2 died and I'm considering a blender upgrade. I'd been using it to mix different fuzzes and really like the idea of more loops in parallel. The Wounded Paw Blender v4 seems ideal, but I haven't seen much in the way of reviews...

So: Does it work as advertised? Switch pops? Noise floor? Loop buffer/impedance issues?

I have a v4 revision F. I used it for a long time, til some of the switches started to crap out. When I contacted them they were super friendly, said they'd fix them no charge, the only reason I haven't sent it back to them yet is my own laziness.

A smaller option is the badger schism. Gives 2 loops plus a clean channel. I've considered grabbing one, but my old ls2 has been working fine for now.

Great device, silent, effective
The v4 has lots of useful features, bypass mode options for each channel, phase inv for channels b c and d, channels c and d have series/parallel options. I use channel a as a clean, and the tone control is decent. It'll definitely serve as a buffer if you use one of the channels clean, i think it's a true bypass so no buffer if bypassed.
Great unit! All sorts of uses!
I find levels among channels to be uneven, but that is likely due to the pedals in the different channels rather than the blender.

it is GREAT! I love mine. I had the rev F, now I have the rev H2. the H2 is dead silent. The rev F was also pretty silent but it was just a tiny noisy when I was running it through my PJB stuff. They are a greta product!

It's just his version numbering, the one before that was f. This is for the V4 model. In the h2 version, there is an internal voltage pump that converts the 9v to 12v.

Sounds like its mostly love for this pedal! I'm considering a purchase of the V4. A few people here mentioned different revisions of the pedal. Is anyone able to tell me how you go about identifying the revision of a given pedal? Thx.

Holy Necro thread! Also looking for information about this. It says sold out on their website but I've emailed them. Seems super full featured and perfect. Any new alternatives to this? I really appreciate the parallel or series selection.
