Blend Knob for Promethium?

Thinking about building a Promethium, but I don't love the full on hm-2 sound. How difficult would it be to add a wet/dry blend knob? Has anyone done this?
 
Alec at MAE has a board that works well here


He also has the HMTone pcb that blends the sound in for you, I've used it to add on to quite a few builds and it's great. DM him for the spawn of hmtone board, it's even smaller.
 
No need to add another 2 buffers to a build that already has input and output buffers...

Add a capacitor into lug 3 of a 100K pot here:

... and connect a cap from lug 2 here:

Lug 1 goes to ground.


ALTERNATIVELY, you can make a "faux EQ blend" by replacing R29 here with a pot, e.g. A5K:

This will only affect the EQ intensity, not the gain though.

Oooh...the HMTone looks similar to the Dunn Effects Death Knob. I may go this route instead, as I was planning on running the HM-2 with distortion at zero anyway. Thanks!
