You are calculating dc voltage drops. But none of those dc voltages even get to the send jack or V4B. Those dc voltages are blocked by C12 coupling cap.

Thank you. Oblivious to the cap being there. Oblivious that this an AC signal pass. How does the DC voltage drop affect the signal after the cap?

Hi Greg,

I've implemented it and it works. It pulls the overall signal down a bit, when the loop is in use, but that can be leveled out by the master volume.

Cheers
