Re: Looper's Little Mixers...

Hi Andy,
Correct, I used the wrong words, the DI8 doesn't have fx send/return knobs 
;) I use a stereo FX loop using the line output's on the front and 2 
additional channels for the return signal. The problem with most mixers is 
that they don't offer true stereo FX send/returns which means you can't 
pan the signal...with exception of Allen&Heath. I'm very happy with the 
DI8, it solves a couple of issues for me:

- balanced output per channel => signal for FOH mixer
- pan and volume control per channel => signal for personal stage monitor
- link output per channel you can use for FX send, click track for drummer 
etc
- it replaced a mixer + DI => less complex setup, less noise
