INTRODUCTION
Thanks for purchasing a Diamond ST-MIX stereo mix accessory pedal. Although de-
signed to be used with the Memory Lane analog delay, the ST-MIX’s versatility lends it-
self to a number of applications not solely limited to the stereo interfacing of the ML.
Remember to protect your hearing and wear appropriate hearing protection when play-
ing loud…
DESIGN BACKGROUND
The ST-MIX began develop-
ment in 2005 a few months af-
ter the release of the Memory
Lane when a customer wrote in
asking for a true stereo solution
- one in which guitar signal
went to both amps even with
the Memory Lane in true by-
pass. We saw this as an oppor-
tunity to solve several other
potential issues with running
amps in tandem:
• phase: the ability to correct
180 deg phase differences
between different amps
• isolation: the ability to isolate
potential grounding issues
between amps
Although the first few ‘beta’ ST-MIX pedals were released in 2006, full production began
in 2007 (the beta pedals had an inverted ‘upside-down’ jack location key changed for the
final production units).
