Pedal modification services - does something like this exist?

Hey pedal experts, I am a double bass player is fairly new to the world of effects. My primary affected sound has been an analog octave pedal (Aguilar Octamizer) with some gated fuzz after (currently using a Dr. Scientist Frazz Dazzler.) I like how the Frazz sounds, but I chose it primarily because it has an expression-controllable dry-wet sweep I’ve been using to get some wobbly dubstep/EDM sounds to great effect IMO. This has gotten me thinking about how great it would be for other effects I have / want to try to employ a similar function. For example, I’d love to have a Fredrick Designs BugCrusher with a similar expression-controlled dry-wet, or a Meatbox with a sweepable SUB boost, or even having an expression control for the low pass filter knob on my Octamizer.

I’m not knowledgeable about electronics but I do have Google.From what I have read adding an expression pot and Jack to an analog knob on an analog pedal isn’t impossible, although some pedals would require rehousing. Am I correct in this understanding? And if so does anyone know a builder or repair shop who would be willing and able to do such a job? Or would anyone who is handy in these matters like some paying work doing these mods? If anyone could give a simple primitive DB guy some knowledge it would be greatly appreciated!

For wet/dry blending with an expression pedal, you can use this: Minimal Series Mosquito Blender Expressio with BJF Buffer (OC-M-MBEXP)

To convert a single knob on a pedal to expression control, you'd need someone that really knows what they're doing to rehouse the pedal with the necessary additions to make it work. And, even then, I doubt it would be possible with any function on any pedal. Probably a very case-by-case kind of thing.

I figured that this might be the case. The OneControl pedal, however, may be the solution I've been looking for for the bugcrusher! Thank you for your help.

There are digital pedals that offer expression pedals to control various functions, Source Audio for example have the option to control many parameters via expression. You might check out the Source Audio Spectrum or C4.
