wow, you've done a great work here! thanks!
how did you managed to remove that goop?

I see from the schem a lot of similarities with the zwex pedals (SHO, Box Of Rock, ...can you identify the transistors' numbers? bs170?), but there's also an opamp stage and hard clipping with different diodes options, which i don't recognize as a known circuit, in this moment.

this La Grange looks like a combination of different pedals; from what i can see there is:

- a switchable BOOST section (SHO) in front

- an op-amp gain stage (if i'm not wrong the gain is 2.5, being R37(rf)=15K and R31(r2)=10K, in a non-inverting configuration)

Image


- a modified COT50, ala Briggs, with different clipping options, "nature"="blend" and "structure"=fixed value

Image


- a Box Of Rock with some tweaks and options

Nice work. Is there parts values for the schematic?

That op amp buffer / gain stage looks a bit weird - if it is powered by+9 and -9 volt supplies why is there an additional +9v bias rail ?

Only after crack Red Ecstasy Pedal. Waiting for 3 years on this forum, but why owners Red Pedl are very lazy :cry:
I buy La Grage and after 5 days I havу it scematic.

That op amp buffer gain stage looks a bit weird - if it is powered by+9 and -9 volt supplies why is there an additional +9v bias rail ?

bias rail is + 0.7V gives maximum undistorted signal on opamp

I think it's pretty much the British equivalent of what Americans refer to as, trailer trash, white trash, wal-mart people etc.. Definitely not a compliment.. :lol:

I look forward to it. Can I ask if the pedal still works after de-gooping it? I know they're not exactly cheap.
