ONE CONTROL MOSQUITE BLENDER A diminutive option is the One Control Mosquite Blender. It's one of the smallest blenders you can buy, making it a good fit on a crowded board. While it features only a single blend knob and a solid internal buffer, its big feature that separates it from other choices is an expression input jack, letting you control the blend level with an expression pedal. If you're a skilled wah player, you'll love the kind of interactions this can have with your filter and modulation pedals especially. TRY THIS: Turn your phaser to that fullspeed “underwater” sound, and rock the wah connected to the Mosquite blender with your funkiest slap riff. Letting such an overwhelming sound rock in and out creates a filter effect that can really emphasize your playing without the sound being a distraction. ToneReport.com 27
