Hi Tom, Here's an off the wall idea: If your bass, stereo guitar, and stero guitar-synth signals are going to a mixer that has insert points on 1/4" TRS jacks, then you can try this. Go to Radio Shack and get stereo to mono headphone adapters. The plug end is TRS stereo 1/4" and the jack end is TR mono. Plugging one of these into an insert jack sends the signal right babck into the mixer channel and provides a 1/4" unbalanced output that you can send to a volume pedal. Get three pedals like the Boss FV-60 because it will handle a stereo signal. Send the outputs of these pedals to unused channels of your mixer and use an effect send to get the signals to your Repeater. Alternately, send the pedal outputs to a separate mixer. You can get a small Behringer for about $99 which might be just right for this task. (Plus I think they're cute!) Route an output of this auxilliary mixer to your Repeater and send the Repeater outputs back to your main mixer. Let me know if you think I'm crazy as a loon or an evil genius!
