About the Mixer block

The standalone Mixer block(s) can be used to mix and route signals on the grid. Unlike the Multiplexer block, the Mixer can handle multiple inputs simultaneously.

The block can't be bypassed and doesn't support Global blocks.

For routing purposes, attach an External controller like a switch to the Mixer. Example: operating the pedal or switch can enable one row (effect) and bypass another. This lets you use a single pedal to operate as a Wah (Wah block) or a Whammy (Pitch block), or crossfade between Amp blocks, similar to the Multiplexer block. Crossfading is something that the Mixer can accomplish and Channels cannot.

Mixing in the Output block

Het Output blocks also have basic mixer controls which let you set the overall output level of the preset and the relative levels of the grid rows, per scene.
