I am looking at the Tonebone Bigshot I/O - a 2 in-1 out nifty little box with one adjustable channel. One with 4 ins-1 out would be perfect for me but I have not found one yet. Is there such a beast (ideally with 1 or more control). Thanks

Lots of them out there. Often called ABCD.

Are you looking for loops or switching?

4 ins-1 out

I have this that I could part with.

Thanks Hammerhands. That was easy! This JX should work (and shows what I know about these things .... not much

That doesn't do loops.

A bit more research on my part would have been more productive.... Anyway, I actually came across this one and it answered my own question... Hope this helps others as well. My application is for inputting 4 acoustics (a 12 string, a bouzouki, a classical and a 6 string) into one box and out to one chain. Looks like this was exactly designed for this purpose.

This was the one I was thinking about. It also is just a ABCD input box.

I'm not sure if it was just a prototype.

Are you looking for something that lets you have up to four instruments/sources plugged in all the time, and you get to select between them with your foot?

A little more info about what you need it to do, as opposed to what you want it to be, would help identifying useful alternatives.

EDIT: While I was typing, it seems the purpose has been identified and the solution has been found. Carry on.

There ya go. It is in stock at Sweetwater, and not too expensive.

This one is just 50$. It's passive so won't add gain though.

It's funny because I was just looking for such a device except I wanted 1 in 4 out. This thing does both.
