Hi there, I was wondering how I could implement a blend control into this effect. I want the blend control to mix the clean guitar signal with the distorted signal. Thanks for any help.

Check out the Voodoo Sparkle Drive or the Sprinkle Drive variation.  I think it is real close to what your discribing.   8)

i saw somewhere that if you put a potntionometer between the diodes and the cap line you can kinda get the effect you want--- could you maybe send me the pcb you r using cuz im tryin to build the dist+ but im having some probs...

You could build an external blender, such as my B. Blender, or build one in. You would not need the upper two op amps in that case. Just the dry input and the output amps.

Depends on what you want to do. Under moderate to heavy gain, the opamp is driven to distortion, so it does not make a good dry signal. However, it might make for a cool effect. It would allow you to control the amount of clipping.

How would you wire that up?
