Actually Paul already has an input module planned. I can't remember if
the preamp is separate friom the EF or the same module. Perhaps we just
need a good stereo output module, maybe with variable attenuation and
balanced XLR's.

Though I could see how your module idea would be useful. However, a 1U
single channel "Effects Loop" with variable level effects send and
effect receive might be more flexible. Four jacks would be 10vpp in,
1vpp out, 1vpp in, 10vpp out.
