Clean Blend/Parallel Blend.

Alright gentlemen. I find it kind of crazy that with the hundreds of PCB traces and utilities that PPCB offers, there still isn't a Clean Blend or Parallel Blend utility offered here. I know other companies offer them but as long as I'm buying the effect pcbs here, why not add these utilities to my cart while I'm here also! ($)

I'm currently working on a project to combine two PedalPCBs in parallel and ordered a JMK Paralyzer which should do the trick. But it's currently LOST somewhere in Canada. Very frustrating as it's all I'm waiting on. Offering the ability to combine PedalPCBs would only increase sales of PedalPCBs. Come on, a no brainer!



(please)

I have something on the bench right this moment that might interest you. :)
Is it that something that mounts on a pot directly you mentionned recently ?

Edit : I just realised I'm talking about something completely different.

I have a few different related projects on the way.

The pot mounted blend is still on my bench, I just have to get back to it and adjust some component values then it'll be good to go.

I haven't finished the OBNE trace yet but hopefully will get back on that soon.

I just finished up the trace of another mixer pedal, so that should be popping up before too much longer.


Also wrapping this one up this morning... a simple 3-channel mono mixer with master volume control.

Are those single op amps? If so, duals could allow for phase switches.

So a buffered splitter (1-to-3) must be in the works, too! ;)

Perfect! Split my signal, parallel process it, then mix it all back together. Have had some janky solutions of my own for this, but will welcome this closed-circuit with open arms.

Eventually my goal is to have projects available for several different configurations of inputs/outputs.

Maybe you need to just mix 2 signals, or maybe 10?

Everyone's use for mixers/splitters is unique so I'd rather have multiple options to fit those needs rather than be limited to a single "one size fits all" project" that incorporates everything... Of course, that should be an option as well.

This is one area where I definitely feel like more options are better. I don't think a little bit of overlap will hurt.

I'll start a thread soon where we can discuss various options and folks can list any special applications that I probably haven't thought of.

Pins. And. Needles.
 
Oh this is exciting. A friend is asking me to build him a parallel mixer, but I can't find a decent layout in the usual places.

Robert,

This looks similar to the Red Panda Bit Mixer, is that correct? If so, I'm excited to build it. I've been wanting to get one for a while.

I have the EHX Ravish Sitar going in to a OBNE Darkstar, but the Ravish Sitar has an additional out solely for the sympathetic strings and I've wanted to run that into a separate reverb (OBNE Sunlight, likely, or a PedalPCB build), and then mix them both through the Bit Mixer to color the main and sympathetic strings differently.
