Thanks Stephengiles,

I wonder what the "Spectral Phase Refractor" on page 17 does... :hmmm:

I have one that I might be able to take some pictures of. i don't know how complicated it would be and I am still so new i don't know if i want to because it's my main pedal both live and in the studio (bass player). I love this thing and don't want to screw it up, but I can look into it.

If you would, just remove the back lid/cover and take some photos of the top of the PCB. That might just show us all we need to see, and it won't require you to disassemble anything.

Yeah, yesterday i took the back off and it looks like in order to get the PCBs completely out i just need to take the nuts off of the switch and pots and they will come out pretty easy. i'll try it a little later and post some guts in a new thread. Should Aphex stuff go in the Boutique or Modern Stompbox threads?

Please do post the guts when you get a chance to take the pics and upload.

I'm pretty sure it would qualify as boutique. But if the consensus thinks it is plain old Modern, we can always move it later. So don't worry about that.

I for sure will. I'm not trying to just "tease" everyone. I just opened it up and tried to get the board out, but it looks like I'm going to at least de-solder the stomp switch to get the two boards out easy. Will have to wait until tomorrow or whenever i get the time to sit behind the iron.
