mxr blue box octave up???

[bukas]

You can put a switch in to make it do another octave down, but not up.

You can also bypass one of the D-Types so that you only get 1 octave down. If you read about D-Type Flip Flips, you'll see why a Blue Box can't do what you're asking.

Out of interest has anyone built this? I bought mine and I find depending on the output loading the volume is crazy. It can happily do unity gain into a pedal, but needs to be cranked to drive an amp. What the flippity flop is up with that?

One would have to add a completely different circuit to it to make it do what you're asking, regardless of whose layout you use.  Maybe not quite as bad as trying to turn one's flanger into an EQ pedal, but not all that far off, either.

If you want something that will do above and below, then you'll want something like the Pearl Octaver, which several people have posted layouts for, or just buy yourself a Slash Octave box.
