Hey guys, I got a possibly silly question. I've been building lots of fuzzes to work with bass as well as guitar, and was thinking that it might be a good idea to add a blend control to help preserve some of the natural punch of my bass so it doesn't get lost in the mix. I figure the Split and Blend would be perfect for the job, but two issues of concern.

First is the hookup inside the pedal instead of the as a stand alone pedal as show in the layout. Should it be:
IN --> 3PDT IN Lug
OUT --> 3PDT OUT Lug
SEND --> FX INPUT
RECEIVE --> FX OUTPUT

Second, would I need to add a booster to preserve output level of the original circuit this is being added to. If so, in front of the blend or after?

Third, would I need to do any changes to the blend circuit to keep the low end or should it be fine as is?
