I'm not in any hurry for this, but I'd thought I'd throw it out there. How about a Sparkle Drive clone? Or some sort of OD with a clean blend like the SD?

There's one that's already nearly complete. I posted about it a couple weeks ago. It's not the SD, but along the same lines. It's called the "Sparkplug".

Any idea when this one will drop? I would love to build a SD type clone :)

I have owned a sparkle Drive. I can guarantee you it is just a 808 screamer with a built in clean blend. If you try a bit, you could easily work one out for sure.

On a different note, the Sparkle Drive is my all time favorite overdrive for bass. I use it mostly for just adding a little dirt and a boost. Love it.

Thanks Jacob!
Do you happen to know of a resource to figure out how to add a clean/blend knob to an 808 clone like the madbean Neutrino or maybe point me in the right direction? I'm still a novice at building but I would love to give it a shot :)

There are some blender type projects that have potential. I've worked a layout for one, but it's not verified. Interested in doing some learning and experimenting? PM me...
