@@LoVeAmBiEnT what did you choose? That is my question today as well

I still haven't bought a signal blender, but I come back every once in awhile just to listen to how good the music is in this video because this is a masterclass on how to combine effects to create music.

"Yes soon, the 2020's was bad, really really bad, but then Stefan invented the classic blended Enzo Ottobit combo you know, or BEOC as you kids now call it, and that was great stuff, really really great, so at least we had that going for us, which was nice". This pedal is such a good addition to a small mixer or as you do, use it instead of a mixer for a small pedal heavy synth sett. It also deserves loads of attention and I seriously think this tool has the possibility to if not revolutionise so at least have a great impact on the sound of the times. Even putting two of the same pedals, like two Afterneaths on different settings in the blend could be interesting. And btw, you asked on instagram what pedals we thought are beautiful. I like the look of that OBNE Haunt with the cats on.

@@WillemZenhorst - It looks great, but I greatly prefer the simplicity of the Signal Blender. Less is more for me in this case.

I've been running things in parallel since the mid-'80s. I've made myself a few splitter/mixer modules for my home-made modular system, and built a dry-lift switch into the delay module in the collection, so I could shape the delay signal tone independently from the dry signal. I also made myself a BBD-based very short delay (0.5-9msec) for the purpose of time staggering two overdrive sounds before mixing them. The goal is to be able to mimic what one might get when close-micing one amp and mic-ing another from a distance in the same room. I look forward to experimenting with it.

I pass my pedal board through a small mixer, before my signal goes to a stereo amp. VOX and rythm channels combine with multiple parallel signals from the pedal board. I plug my guitar signal into a triple splitter. My output channels can be more though. Serial and parallel combinations do different things that you can't seriously go without. Endless fun. SO I'm crazy for all kinds of signal Splitters, blenders and switchers!

Awesome to hear you're having fun with parallel signal mixers as well

Holy s***. That was awesome dude. I forgot it was a demo at the end lol. Great music. You sold me the Dark Star, and now this. Damn It lol. Also, what is your shirt? Thanks again.

Oh boy! Means a lot to hear you enjoyed this and the Dark Star demo so much. Thank you! 🙏 The shirt I'm wearing is from the band Daughters

Ah thanks I've been looking for something like this, its like the opposite of a mixer, I wish more pedals had send-return path options.

It's a very cool and versatile pedal. So many different ways to use it.

This is great! And the sonic landscapes you created with these pedals are perfect. For the first time I'm a bit stuck with the signal flow I have in mind. I might be needing three of those signal blenders, but that would be rediculous. If the guys from OBNE are reading this, what about a second version of this pedal, but with two expression pedal outputs to control the volume of the red signal and the blue signal? That would be killer! What? I could just as well use two volume pedals for it? Hmmmm...., I guess so, but still... 😁

Thanks, man! Really happy you enjoyed the video. Yeah, a version with expression controls for each loop would be killer.

Wounded Paw makes some excellent blender pedals.

I hope you've had a good first month or two in Club Fatherhood, Stefan, and kudos for remembering to hit Record on the camera even without sleep! (Oh, lovely playing and demonstration as always.)
