Title: MadBox V3.1 or Mixer Splitter V4.2 for pedal patchbay
Post by: tedsorvino on January 26, 2020, 10:42:48 PM
 I want to build a patch bay - router for my pedal board.
I need something with 5-8 lines and being able to change the routing without having to disconnect the peadals.
And I also need my guitar signal to go direct to the amp if I want it to, without having to remove the pedals.
A blend pot for each line would be a great asset and I would like to build it as compact as possible.

Any idea on what should I use to achieve something like that?
Maybe some MadBox V3.1  or Mixer Splitter V4.2 pcbs?
Any (other?) idea or any schematics or lay out on how can I combine these pcbs would be much appreciated.
Kind regards.

Thanks Jimlee for the reply. I've already checked the fantastic Epic bypass looper project, but I think it's not what I need - I don't think it changes the order of the effects routed to it.

I just need something that is able to change the order of 5-8 parallel paths, even without footswitches. For example Drive -> Delay-> Mod and then by just changing patches without having to remove the in out from the pedals go to Delay ->Drive->Filter etc. That's why I was thinking the MadBox V3.1  or Mixer Splitter V4.2 pcbs.

Yes Drew Hallenbeck. This one seems very good. How can I build something similar?
