Description

Quick Product Summary

The One Control Mosquito Blender Trail is a compact effects-loop blender that lets you combine your unaffected signal with any pedal or group of pedals placed in its Send/Return loop. Independent Dry and Wet controls make it easy to introduce just the right amount of an effect while retaining the clarity and attack of your original sound.

This used example is in Good condition, with visible signs of previous use consistent with a pre-owned pedal. A switchable BJF Buffer, phase inversion and Trail function make it a particularly useful utility pedal for creative and complex pedalboard setups.

What Makes the One Control Mosquito Blender Trail Special?

The Mosquito Blender Trail effectively turns almost any conventional pedal into a parallel effect. Place distortion, modulation, delay, reverb or another effect in its loop, then use the Wet and Dry controls to determine exactly how much processed and unaffected signal reaches your amplifier.

Its Trail mode allows the Return signal to continue when the loop is bypassed while cutting the Send signal, making it possible for delay repeats and reverb tails to decay naturally. A Phase switch helps correct polarity issues when blending certain effects, while the switchable BJF Buffer can help maintain clarity across larger pedalboards and longer cable runs.

Who Is It For?

The Mosquito Blender Trail is ideal for guitarists and bassists who want greater control over how effects interact with their dry tone.

It is particularly useful for blending heavily distorted sounds with clean attack, adding subtle modulation, retaining low-end definition with bass effects or allowing delay and reverb trails to continue naturally after bypass.

FAQs

What does the Mosquito Blender Trail do?

It allows the signal from pedals connected to its Send/Return loop to be blended with your original dry signal.

What are the Dry and Wet controls for?

Dry determines how much of your unaffected instrument signal is heard, while Wet controls the level of the effect-loop signal.

Can I use it with distortion pedals?

Yes. One useful application is blending a heavily distorted signal with some of the original clean signal to retain attack, clarity and low-end definition.

Is it suitable for bass guitar?

Yes. Parallel blending can be especially useful with bass, where retaining some clean signal can preserve low frequencies and note definition.

What does the Trail switch do?

Trail mode allows the Return signal to continue being mixed when the blender is bypassed while stopping the Send signal. This lets existing delay repeats or reverb tails fade naturally instead of being cut off abruptly.

What does the Phase switch do?

Some effects reverse the polarity of the signal, which can cause cancellation when mixed with the dry sound. The Phase switch reverses polarity to help correct this.

What is the BJF Buffer?

The switchable BJF Buffer is One Control's buffering circuit, designed to help maintain signal clarity when using long cables or multiple pedals.

Can the buffer be switched off?

Yes. The BJF Buffer can be enabled or disabled depending on your pedalboard setup.

Can it be used with multiple pedals at once?

Yes. Several pedals can be placed within the Send/Return loop and blended together with the dry signal.

Can it be used as a boost?

With the Send and Return connected appropriately and the Wet and Dry levels raised, the Mosquito Blender Trail can also be used creatively to increase signal level.

Can it run from a battery?

No. The Mosquito Blender Trail requires external 9V DC power.

Is a power supply included?

No. No power supply is included with this used pedal.

What condition is this example in?

This example is graded Good, with visible signs of previous use consistent with a pre-owned pedal.
