Fishman AFX Pocket Blender Mini A/B/Y Mixer and DI Pedal

Premium Acoustic Guitar A/B/Y Pedal with Endless Mixing Options

Mix your acoustic guitar tone for the perfect sound with the AFX Pocket Blender Mini from Fishman, an all-analog, 2-channel mixer, A/B/Y splitter, and DI booster pedal designed to be the beating heart of Fishman's innovative AFX dual-path ecosystem. With four input faders, four selectable mixing options, and dual outputs�one for mixed or split signals and one balanced output with selectable ground lift for amps and PAs�you can set up the ideal sound and signal routing for your live performances. Sporting the same technology as the classic Pocket Blender, but in a low-profile, all-aluminum case that will stand up to the rigors of the road and take up minimal space on your pedalboard, the Pocket Blender Mini is ready to help you get the most out of your acoustic guitar tone.

This pedal requires a 9 VDC power supply to operate. A power supply is not included.

A level-adjustable A/B pedal. A built-in DI output with ground-lift. A boost pedal. An output Y-splitter. A two-channel mixer. The AFX Pocket Blender is the ultimate A/B/Y pedal combining four essential tools:

• An input mixer that lets you continuously adjust the level of audio sources connected to the TRS input
• A DI output featuring Fishman's balanced line driver circuit that can be used to send to a house PA or amplifier
• An ABY output to split a signal or connect to one or two stage amps
• An A/B mode switch with 4 options determines the overall behavior when the footswitch is pressed

Without even touching the A/B features, it�s a mini two-channel mixer allowing you to connect two audio sources and blend them together. This is perfect for dual-source systems such as Fishman soundhole pickups that feature a mic or body pickup.

Build on the simple blender by setting up an A mix and a B mix; where pressing the footswitch toggles between one mix and the other. You could balance your onboard pickup (50%) with your onboard mic (50%) on mix A. Then on mix B, you can take solos, boosting the pickup to 75% while leaving the mic on 50%.

Pocket Blender Mini is not only an A/B pedal with a mixer, it is the heart of Fishman�s unique AFX Dual Path ecosystem. By using common TRS audio cables, you assign effects on either tip or ring signal paths and essentially switch between two scenes, each with mix levels you control.

Simply connect several AFX Minis together with TRS stereo guitar cables and set the Audio Path switch on each pedal to Tip or Ring. Pedals set to Tip will create one effect chain while pedals set to Ring will create another effect chain.

A tiny switch on the front of the pedal is designed to electrically isolate the pedal from other electronic devices. Normally, leave this switch set to Ground. Should a ground hum occur, set this switch to Lift.

The ground-lift function only applies to the balanced DI output, not the ABY output.
