ok i have built a B.Blender and it works great.
i was wondering if there is a way to have two sets of send and return jacks with their own independent foot switches, while using the same existing circuit board?

i have been trying to figure it out through this diagram.

Should be...if you're switching both input & output, then "how many" wires to the board you have is irrelevant.  The single input & output will simply switch between 2 sets of jacks, only 1 set being active at any one time.   Might get popping, tho.   The 'experimenting' will just be in getting the switching right.   Probably a DPDT to select which send, and another DPDT to select which return.   And also a 3PDT to bypass the whole deal, if you want.   

I stay away from things this complicated!  Volume and tone changes add up when trying to do this stuff, and I get too annoyed to figure out how to solve them, he he.  Most I get into is an effect and booster in 1 box, independently switchable.

More wiring than I want to do, but maybe it will solve some big problem you're having!  Should work just fine, Nick.
