info on a pedal

[esurreal]

Hey, i'm looking to make a pedal that has two inputs and one output. Is this just a matter of hooking two input jacks together with one output jack. It will not need any "effect qualities". It only needs to transfer the two signals into one output. Thanks for any help!

You may be able able to get away with a passive A/B pedal http://www.generalguitargadgets.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=215&Itemid=26
You can also build a mini-mixer and add switches to the inputs: http://www.generalguitargadgets.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=68&Itemid=26

thanks! the passive a/b box is perfect if the two outputs are wired as inputs and the input is wired as output. There is not a schematic for this so any suggestions on how to wire it? thanks again

Since it's passive there is no difference in wiring. You just plug the amp in to single jack, and plug your instruments into the other two. So you'll be able to use the same pedal either way; switch between 2 amps or 2 instruments.

cool but i think i have a problem. I somehow forgot to mention that i want the signals to be running at the same time. I don't want to switch between them. I'm thinking some little mixer pedal will work. Any suggestions?

actually that mini mixer you linked to in the first response is perfect. I forgot about it..doh! thanks

You're welcome! I've built one, and it worked great. I made the channels foot-switchable.
