Verbzilla mods

Anyone know if it's possible to make it accept an expression pedal to control the wet / dry mix?

Not that I've ever heard of, though that would be great.

I've got it running in a parallel loop. I feel the output of the VZ & delay to a volume pedal and use that to blend in the wet signal (the Steve Morse trick). So a small mixer + VP would allow you to do the same with a serial loop.

There's a loop pedal out there that allows you to use a pedal to blend, can't remember the name off the top of my head.

The Gigrig Wet Box

THAT'S the one!

Ok, so there must be a cheaper way than the wet box... 150 quid all in!
Is your parallel loop a DIY effort? Yes, then please tell me what's inside...
I've put barrier rectifiers across the in/out and return/out to stop feedback loops but I'm losing signal when the volume is heal down.
If you bought yours can I be cheeky and ask whats inside? Pics!!!
Otherwise anyone else have the knowledge...
Cheers

[Jason]

Just to clarify, I'm losing from the main signal not the loop...
When I'm toe down on the volume and the verbzilla is off I get what you're supposed to get from the George L's... great robust tone.... heal down and there's a noticeable drop in gain and all things GL...

It's my amp that has a parallel loop, so I'm using a stock VZ.

Building a decent sounding mixer would be a bit of a pain, IMO. I'd probably go with something like Suhr's "Minimix" (http://www.suhrguitars.com/tonetools.aspx) or one of the other products mentioned, even though you'll be shelling out a few bucks for it.

Other option for cheap is to run the output of your loop (the VZ/volume pedal) into a secondary "wet" amp. Small inexpensive keyboard amp, etc. would do, you don't need much wattage. Then you've got your main amp for dry and a little amp for blended wet. Works really well.
