The Pork Barrel question made me curious if I could use a Buff N Blend (creates a mix knob) With the Pork Barrel. The GuitarPCB site mentioned trouble if the pedal inverts the phase. Does the Pork Barrel do this? It seems like a good pedal to add this on to.
Thanks

IIRC and as is usual with BOSS stuff, non inverting transistor input buffer, inverting pre-emphasis stage, inverting de-emphasis stage so no, it doesn't invert the phase :)
Works at Lectric-FX

No idea about phase inversion, but I used a little vero blend circuit (http://tagboardeffects.blogspot.ca/2012/02/split-n-blend.html) and a capacitor switch to turn a Pork Barrel into a CE-2B.  Works great!

Output and input are in phase.
