Warm and subtle overdrive - pedal suggestions?

I’m not looking for grindy or gritty. Just a warm-up with a light touch of breakup that responds when I dig in. I’d also like to be able to mix clean signal and effected signal to taste. Suggestions? Thanks!

I really want a 4 on the floor. Reeeeeally bad. I just don't have $200+

That being said, right now I'm using a Caline Pure Sky. I repainted the housing and added some new knobs to be able to get over the aesthetics of the pedal, and I couldn't be happier. With volume and gain around 11 o'clock i hear little to no "grit" and only some nice fat-ness when engaged. It's an always on for me. Having the treble and bass controls help as well.
I followed my G.A.S. recently and bought the Eden Glow Plug to use in conjunction with some of my preamps.It will give full on tube O.D.- fuzz but with some tweaking you can get the warm roundish pre break up.I first put it before my One Control 360 Blue and I like what it did.Tonight though I put it in front of my Tech 21 Sans Amp 2112 and if I had to live with this tone and nothing else I be a happy guy.j
