1/4” Mono Plug to Two Mono 1/4” Sockets Adaptor
When I first got my stick I used to put the Bass through a Marshall MG30 and the melody side through a Roland Micro Cube - But then I had an idea probably because I'm lazy and only wanted to use 1 amp. I bought a 1/4” Mono Plug to Two Mono 1/4” Sockets Adaptor now I play through the Marshall MG30 clean channel using the adaptor with both Bass and Melody going into the same input - It works and sounds great for home use - I'm very happy - so happy I will not be buying another amp until something very special comes along ! Has anyone else tried this ?

I use one all the time. It's a great little addition the the gear collection.

Re: 1/4” Mono Plug to Two Mono 1/4” Sockets Adaptor
Hi, I've used one of these with my Stickup and found that my overall tone and volume is affected quite negatively (impedance loading, I think it's called). Definitely handy to have one around though.
Cheers, Andy

Andy is correct that these affect tone of the Stickup. They suck the highs right out. I have finally found a simple circuit for an active stereo (or more) to mono device and I'm planing on making one to try it out this summer. I'll post the results.

-Eric Eric, Could that little circuit we use just be combined on the input of a mono circuit or the output of the stereo one thus combining it to a mono output with any degradation of sound quality or is there more to it than that? (If so, I will need to correct something I said in another post.) I would not have expect the device pictured & mentioned above to effect the sound. I am learning but my info stores must be missing vital information because to me that doesn't make sense. Thanks again, Curtis

Thanks again,
Curtis I don't think this would work. To combine 2 or more signals without degradation you really need a mixer circuit. Here's a simple one that I'm going to try when I get a chance: http://www.muzique.com/schem/mixer.gifI also have another one to try but I don't have an online link for it. I'm not an expert in any of this and I'm relying on my advisers and online resources. I certainly could be wrong here and I'm still looking for more information. -Eric
