How to add a mix dial to the wah block

Experimenting with a cocked wah block in front of an amp. Is there an economic way of dialing in a mix of wah vs direct input signal going into the amp block ?

To the original signal. So that you have one shunt and on another block parallel the Wah.
To adjust the dry, maybe you can also put a volume block parallel to the Wah.

I am using a parallel Wah usually if I place the Wah-block behind the Amp-block. The original signal in parallel helps to lessen the Wah effect like turning the 'Mix' down.

The FAT parameter is a mix control (max 50%).

Tried that. Doesn't seem to have the desired effect. I lowered the wah resonance which seems to work better but not perfect.

That's what I feared you would recommend. In order to be able to adjust the mix I would need another block in parallel to the wah and then adjust both block levels to change the mix. Thank you, it works but it is neither handy nor economic. I wonder why it has never occurred to FAS to add a mix dial to the wah block (an idea I actually came across in one of @Glenn DeLaune 's YT videos on creating Helix patches).

Probably because a real wah doesn't have a mix control... The other Axe Fx blocks with a Mix (at least, the ones I know about) have one in their real life counterparts.
