Has anyone got a Schematic and/or layout for the Vox Satchurator?

Hi All.

I've recently watched a few distortion face offs on YouTube and I really love the sound of the Vox Satchurator.

Now I've started building my own I couldn't possibly buy a pedal! :icon_evil:

Perhaps one of you helpful chaps could recommend something similar if there is no schematic floating around?

Thanks as always!

That's like cheating on your wife.... with her sister.

Actually, that reminds me, after 12 years of marriage I finally found my wife's G-Spot.  It was on her best friend.

Well I sold my soul and visited 'the other place'.

The schematic and the circuit drawing seem poor quality, incomplete and unconvincing.

Does anyone have any suggestions for similar sounding pedals?

I never found a schematic of the Sacthurator, but I read somewhere it is pretty similar to the Boss DS-1, and probably to the keeley version. Indeed, it has sense to me.

Thanks Elijah

I also read that too.  There's also an excellent document you can find if you 'cheat on the wife' as it were, with pcb traces, mod guides and even drill guides.

Its on the list now!
