GremlinAndy Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 (edited) Anyone running a Gigrig wetter box? It’s basically a very well functioned blender/parallel loop pedal. I’ve done a search but there’s no results for it on Basschat. Its a bit late if there’s bad news, as I already ordered one with the Mission expression pedal bundle. I currently use a Mesquite blender, to add clean into my pedal mix but it has a couple of failings, it pops when switched on/off, and I need (no, not need… would like) a blender which is addressable with a rocker pedal. It seems like the wetter box suits the bill. Hopefully. But not a cheap folly, considering it’s not an effect in its own right. Anyone have any experience? I watched the YouTube vids but would love to hear the opinions of any Basschatters with one! Edited May 10, 2022 by GremlinAndy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GremlinAndy Posted May 2, 2022 Author Share Posted May 2, 2022 (edited) It’s arrived, and I’ve integrated it into my pedal board. I does the job I wanted it to, really well actually. It replaced the noisy Mesquite blender (when switched), and the expression pedal functionality is good for blending the amount of distortion/clean sound on the fly. However it’s a really expensive option. Not sure it’s worth it. in fact, I’d go so far as to say, I’m pretty sure it’s NOT worth it… 🍺🍺🍺 Edited May 2, 2022 by GremlinAndy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretmeister Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Does it do anything more than a trusty LS-2? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GremlinAndy Posted May 2, 2022 Author Share Posted May 2, 2022 (edited) In and of itself, no, not really. The main thing I wanted was the ability to dial the amount of distortion in/out without all the bending down, somehow. The addition of an expression pedal allows for this. …However it’s an expensive folly, I’m the first to admit. But I have no regrets either. Just think the amount of effort I saved bending down and changing the blend knob manually. What is this, the Dark Ages? 😜🤣🤣 Edited May 2, 2022 by GremlinAndy 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andybassdoyle Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Yes indeed I use one and love it super quite and excellent blend options, I use mine primarily to blend things like bitcrush and ringmod, this needs the exp function as I’m playing at the time so fingers are not an option I also like the option to blend or mix between the two loops the trusty ls2 does most things really well except the expression control is it worth it? Depends how much you need the exp. If you don’t the get an ls2 or probably get an ls2 anyway, everyone needs one! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GremlinAndy Posted May 10, 2022 Author Share Posted May 10, 2022 Yep, agreed. The LS2 does what most folk need really well, and they can be picked up used on here, or eBay pretty easily at a fraction of the cost. The exp pedal was the USP for me.
