OBEL switching

Hi, everyone!
I just finished my 3rd build, a completely bespoke guitar, after making a partscaster and one with a pre made neck.
My question for y'all is, is there a way I can wire the OBEL switch to blend/fade between the OBEL and straight-through hot lines?
I tried a couple ways with a fader pot, but since there is really only one source, that won't work.
Is there such a thing as a dpdt rotary blending switch? (Pardon my lack of correct terminology, lol)
Thanks y'all!
Hal

Scott Walker posted a video of a guitar with a blender knob for OBEL on/off signals

Maybe email Scott and he'd give you wiring info?

I think you would need an active blender circuit for the best effect. There are a lot of info on it on pedal building forums. Did some quick image searching and this may be a starting point?

If you are fine with using an expression pedal you could just use something like this https://one-control.com/products/one-co ... io-english
