Blender/mix pedal. Simple.

Post by Pop »

Hi there.

Can someone point me to a really cheap and simple blender pedal? Like just one that mixes your dry signal with a wet signal. So I guess that would need an effects loop, right?

I'm just having a hard time finding one online... I don't know if I'm using the wrong nomenclature or what.


THANKS!

Xotic has one I've always liked...

Or if you're a Pimp you can get a Keymaster...

Do you already have a clean and wet signal coming from your board???

You should ask someone in the Shark Tank to whip one up...

Comic Sans is based off of the lettering in Watchmen. Watchmen was dark as fuck, and it worked there. When you see Comic Sans, stop thinking Garfield, and start thinking of the Comedian shooting that Vietnamese woman he got pregnant in the heart. Perhaps it'll seem a little bit more serious.

it's also based on Frank Miller's the Dark Knight Returns. :idk:

it still looks shitty when it isn't place in a bubble.

I think the text on this pedal needs a nice drop shadow or 3d effect to maximise its appeal.

It still looks god awful on a pedal whether it was in watchmen or not.

Wow, no one recommended the Boss LS-2 yet? That's the cheapest and best way to go IMO, and it also has a bunch of other routing options if you decide you want to do more complicated things later. I love it, I have two of them myself.

I should tell you that this is strictly for recording and not for my board. I'm using my TASCAM 424 4-track and I'm finding that the effects loop doesn't work quite how I thought it would... I thought you could blend effects, but the effects knob is just a signal volume of sorts, not a blender.

So I want to be able to just you like run my keyboard or a drum sample or something through a pedal (like a flanger or phaser or whatever) and then be able to control the mix.

I'll look at everything you've suggested so far! Thanks!

Use the sends and run a separate clean channel out to the effects then come back in on another channel...

Clean on 1 sent out on aux or send to the effects then from the effects back to channel 2, now you have a clean vol and an effects vol you can blend...

If that doesn't work lemme know...
