Blend Board is a simple way to add a mix control with analog DRY path to any DSP board. It’s also useful as an input buffer for connecting a guitar directly to adau1452 board.
Wiring
SND: SEND output. This is the buffered signal, it should go to input of DSP.
RTN: RETURN input. The signal from DSP output should go here.
Pot BLEND: mixes DRY and WET signals.
Pot VOLUME: controls output level.
R5
This resistor sets the gain of the output stage:
R5=100K -> gain=2
R5= 1M -> gain=11

* To increase high frequency roll-off place a 100pF cap in parallel with R5 | |
* Use 100K for ouput gain=2, use 1M for ouput gain=11. |
