I was looking for some advice...

I play acoustic-electric.
(I used to play a friend's but am about to purchase my own)
Previously, I ran my guitar directly into the PA.

I'm wanting to use a lot more effects now, and I've seen some people run their effects and everything into their own small mixing board (usually a Behringer 6 channel) and then out to the PA, avoiding an amp altogether.

Basically, I'm thinking my guitar will run into my tuner, then into a splitter, sides A and B.
A: Ross Flanger/Distortion -> Marshall Chorus -> Ibanez Delay -> Mixer
B: -> Mixer
I was told that I could keep control of the volume pre-PA this way and avoid feedback, as I use distortion on various songs. B would be used for clean, acoustic strumming and I'd have the option to go back and forth.

Is this the best option?

What are the strengths/weaknesses?

I'd prefer to not buy an amp.
