How it works

Split your board into a dry section (drives, compressor, distortion) and a wet section (modulation, delay, reverb). The Wet Dry Wet box gives you separate Dry, Left and Right outputs plus effects loop routing, so you can use one, two or all three at once, or insert your amp's effects loop with ease. Mute the dry side for instant ambient sounds, kill everything with the master mute, and tune silently from the always-on tuner out.

Wet Dry Wet FAQ

What can I run with the Wet Dry Wet box?

Mono, dual mono, stereo, 4 cable method, 5 cable method, wet dry and wet dry wet. Wet dry and wet dry wet also work with a line out box like Suhr or Bray. Change between them by plugging into different outputs, with no repatching of your pedals.

How many amps can I run?

Up to three: Dry, Left and Right. Isolation transformers come standard on the Dry and Right 1/4" outputs to get rid of noisy ground loops and phase problems. You need one less transformer than the number of amps you're using, so two transformers covers a three amp rig.

Do I need the XLR outputs?

Only if you want to go straight to the sound desk, or run long distances to your tube amps using RCV. The LongLine XLR outputs work as an active DI (with the -10dB pad on) or as a line driver, with ground lift and phase on each one.

What is RCV?

RCV is a passive box that turns a balanced XLR line back into an unbalanced 1/4" amp input. Pair it with the XLR outputs to send signal up to 300' to an amp in another room.

Can I use my amp's effects loop?

Yes. The FX Send/Input jack lets you put your amp's effects loop between the dry and wet sections for the 4 and 5 cable method.

What's the difference between stereo sum and split sum?

Stereo sum (default) merges your left and right inputs and sends them to both outputs, best for stereo delays and reverbs. Split sum sends only the left input to both outputs, best for stereo modulation. Change it with the DIP switches inside.

How big is it?

119 x 94 x 56mm with 1/4" outputs. 145 x 121 x 56mm with the XLR outputs.

How do I power it?

9V DC, centre negative, 2.1mm, 150mA.

How long does it take?

Each box is built by hand to order. The current lead time is listed at the top of this page.
