No no... this is courtesy of Mark Hammer's archive. Believe you me, I am the one who is wowed. It starts here; http://hammer.ampage.org/?cmd=lt&xid=&fid=&ex=&pg=1 (http://hammer.ampage.org/?cmd=lt&xid=&fid=&ex=&pg=1)

Wish I had the capacity to make PCB's. Going to have to vero this one.

Oh, and if you want to feast your eyes upon a HUGE collection of pedal porn, check out this page; http://d.hatena.ne.jp/Billl/ (http://d.hatena.ne.jp/Billl/)
It's all in Japanese, so do yourself a favor, open it with Google Chrome, and use the Translate function. I don't know who this dude is, but he takes magnificent pictures. If all those pedals are his, this guy has to be THE pedal God. I'm in freakin' awe, everytime a look through there.

If you want to see his photo gallery directly (all 943 pictures  :icon_eek:), this the link to page 1 of his gallery; http://f.hatena.ne.jp/Billl/?page=1 (http://f.hatena.ne.jp/Billl/?page=1)

Ever heard one of the dbx 120 series subharmonic synths?  I wonder if the basics of this have been incorporate into any pedal designs.  Great fidelity.  A recording studio standard for many years - lots of hip hop records.  And the Dead kicked them on during the drum solos.
Schematic for a recent version, a ridiculous build:   http://adn.harmanpro.com/product_documents/documents/628_1324060947/120XP%20Schematic_original.pdf (http://adn.harmanpro.com/product_documents/documents/628_1324060947/120XP%20Schematic_original.pdf)
Though the original was a cute little box with perhaps a smaller circuit.

I've got a 100 - an earlier model - but I've never really used it that much, mostly because we didn't have a stereo set up for the last 12 years.  I did take it apart, though, to see what was inside, and its a 4013-based divider.

It appears to be functionally the same as the popular Boss OC2.
