A dear friend is actually working on something very similar to this for me at the moment. If there's an interest, he's talked about making more of them. What we're looking at now, is actually quite basic, and will probably have a stereo pair of inputs, which would then split, and be passed through the device, but also be summed to mono before being output to my echoplex, whose output, would then be input back into the device, to be mixed with the stereo pair again. There will probably be a mix knob as well. Basically, it'll just be a lil' tiny box with ins, outs, and a knob, with the proper impedance and OP amps taken into account. Obviously, the same can be accomplished with a standard mixer, but this is really quick and easy and LITTLE! woohoo! lol! -if anyone is interested, feel free to write me off-list, K?
