Members gregovertone Posted April 19, 2006 Members Share Posted April 19, 2006 we've touched on this before. this thread recently brought it up again. adam jones thread is anyone making any headway with something like this? it would be nice to see it built into an EB jr volume pedal i realize the VFM from toneczar is there.....but $475 is a bit more than i'd be willing to invest. suggestion #1 Maybe use a mixer like the DMC System Mix with wet on one side and dry on the other, and the use a volume pedal to control the mix. suggestion #2 I think it would be easy to do that blender pedal from 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members gregovertone Posted April 19, 2006 Author Members Share Posted April 19, 2006 link to X blender i saw that-- but im really hoping to find one that is controlled via footcontroller! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Yek Posted April 19, 2006 Members Share Posted April 19, 2006 Aha, well a VCA-controller linked to a 19" line mixer would do the trick but then again: as expensive as the VFM. But check this: http://66.249.93.104/search?sourceid=navclient-menuext&q=cache:http%3A//www.loooper.com/CustomOptions.htm It's a cache of Loooper's Custom Options web page. He offers a volume pedal-controlled dry/wet blend option. Correction: expression pedal, not volume pedal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gregovertone Posted April 19, 2006 Author Members Share Posted April 19, 2006 expression pedal/volume pedal......same thing to me. i knew he was doin that-- but i know he's done building for a while, if not permanently. furthermore-- im not sure how the blend would work on that. i really like the idea of the Xblend.....its just missing that foot control option.

Members Yek Posted April 19, 2006 Members Share Posted April 19, 2006 Yeah, though the knob looks big eough to control by foot. I know, it's not the same as a expr. pedal. Someone should be able to replace that knob's function with a pedal I guess. You could this ask one if a version of their blend pedal is available with foot controller: http://mysite.verizon.net/resoqx8o/id1.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members freeridstylee Posted April 19, 2006 Members Share Posted April 19, 2006 I really don't think it'd be too hard to modify any volume/wah pedal to do what you want. I'd probably make it truebypass, and make the toe down position dry and heal position wet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gregovertone Posted April 19, 2006 Author Members Share Posted April 19, 2006 Loooper: *Blend Expression Pedal Jack 25.00 This option adds a jack so that you can connect an expression pedal (such as the Roland EV-5) to control the wet/dry blend of the signal, and a toggle switch to turn the expression pedal on/off (removing it completely from the signal path). i like the idea of having the pedal blend optional.....via switch. good plan mr boggs. now come back and make some pedals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members freeridstylee Posted April 20, 2006 Members Share Posted April 20, 2006 Think theres a large demand for these?What would people be willing to pay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gregovertone Posted April 20, 2006 Author Members Share Posted April 20, 2006 i suppose there would be a few factors...... -all in one, or enclosure+exp pedal -quality of exp pedal -building into an existing pedal? loooper....... enclosure style for $40+blend pot option $25aftermarket pedal....$25 im certain if you did it well, there would be a reasonable market for it. not huge, but if you can keep the price below $450, im sure you may get a little VFM biz.

Members camerashake Posted April 20, 2006 Members Share Posted April 20, 2006 We haven't worked out the details, but we're going to be offering an expression option for our VFB-1 Blend/ Feedback/ Bypass looper. Will be atleast a few weeks until it's ready and available. If you can't wait that long, you could always use a TIP 3rd Hand with the VFB. Essentially the same thing. And would only cost around $200.
