Hi,

I don't know if you're looking for an "exact" ts808, if not, this is something along those lines:

Note that you can replace the two 100K resistors before the last stage U1E with a 250K Lin pot and have a blend.

Hope this helps, regards.

Check out the Voodoo Lab Sparkle Drive circuit. It's basically a Tube Screamer with a control to blend the clean signal with the OD signal.

Why not just building a Tube Screamer with a B Blender?
...collectors together and emitter to base? You're such a darling...

ton.
