Hi, friends!
I am constructing an ambitious project in which I want to combine two effects—a Pro-10 blue (Protein blue channel) and a Cobalt (Blues Driver)—with a blend knob in between. I chose the JMK Paralyzer to perform the blending function. In the test phase, I discovered that using the blend knob anywhere between 10% and 90% lowers the volume and screws with the sound a bit. In other words, all the way counter-clockwise (Pro-10) or all the way clockwise (Cobalt) sounds good, but any blending drops the volume and introduces an unpleasant harshness when any amount of gain is applied in either circuit. I figured this has something to do with A) phasing issues, B) the need for an output buffer, or C) both. But I'm stumped about how to install an inverter and/or an output buffer. Can either one or both of those functions be handled by PedalPCB's new signal buffer/inverter? If so, how would I accomplish this?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
