I own one of those units. One thought that immediately springs to mind is
that you need at least two extra controls, preferably three, one to vary the
phasing of the two signals and the others to adjust the amplitude of the two
inputs so that the noise levels cancel exactly. The K3 has no provision for
these controls.
