Nice pictures
Thought this sounded pretty nice actually, justifying the amount of shit in there!

From looking at the solder side, I'd say the 16pin IC in the middle is a CD4049UB. pins 13 and 16 are free...
Another guess: It's for the saturation mode.

I'm using capacitors to replace my guitar effects and give more clarity to the sound.

Big ups Saruman!
Every time you post it is juicy.
Incredible amount going on for an od.

15 transistors
5 integrated circuits (counting the double)
and 6 diode sets (not counting the singles - i am guessing some assymmetrical pairs also)
that is really intricate for what it does.
If it was lovepedal, I would say maybe 5 electra distortions in series with 2 or 3 landgraff tubescreamers with "clipping options"

Original or not, this one sounds killer in the demos.
Complexity -wise, it does rival mr Tripp's designs IMO.
Pretty expensive too!

He's went to a lot of trouble even grinding of the value of the box caps .
It's fairly straight forward, if you want to start it , press start. You can work out the rest of the controls for yourself !
No silicon heaven ? preposterous ! Where would all the calculators go ?

whoa
Is that a three layer board - looks like yet another tubescreamer rat combo with a speaker simulator and baxandall three band eq
would be interesting to see the filter values and interesting input buffer stage

Thanks to Saruman for the values - here is the really interesting bit - the post clipping filter response after the clipping stage and up to the master volume controls.
The red curve shows the input (normalized for a flat response)
The next curve (green) shows the response after the broad mid notch and gain recovery stage.
The blue curve shows the response after the first op amp low pass filter stage.
The purple curve shows the response after the second op amp low pass filter stage.
The yellow curve shows the response after the third emitter follower low pass filter stage.
AND the pink curve shows the response after the final broad notch filter and output buffer op amp stage.
cheers

Did anybody ever try to make a pcb for the original circuit or for Sarumans stripped down version?
Sarumans version should be even small enough for veroboard in a 1590bb
