Hello?

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask about this but I'm setting up a W/D/W rig and am looking for a 4 stereo channel Line Mixer that would allow me to mix all my wet effects in parallel. If possible I would also like to be able to mix in my dry effects using an expression pedal. I also need this unit to sit on my pedalboard so not some huge desktop size mixer.

Anyone know of a suitable product?

I've got the mono version
Does more than parallel mix ... that's why it's a bit $$

I've managed to find this one

MusicomLab Parallelizer

It does have MIDI so it might be controlled from say a Morningstar ML10X paired with their MC8 (MIDI Controller). I haven't managed to find out if that's possible though. I just can't see what else you'd be able to do with its MIDI input if not control the mix knobs???

BTW: The actual wet pedals I'll be hooking up to the Line Mixer are the Boss 500-series (DD-500, RV-500 & MD-500) so this got me thinking... Perhaps I don't even need a Line Mixer to mix in my dry signal?

The 500-series has kill-dry and analog dry through, don't they? So I might be able to solve the entire thing through the Morningstar ML10X Effect Switcher. I should be able to program an expression pedal to control the dry mix parameter.

See page 21

Can assign EV-5 expression pedal to control " E-Level" = effects only

Dry should remain as pass thru

So, I won't be able to adjust the amount of dry coming out, just the amount of wet effects?
