EHX - Tube EQ [schematic]

Does anybody have the schematic or some gut shots for the ehx tube eq.
I've searched around and can't find anything more than basic descriptions that don't mean much.
I'm curious how much of the topology is SS and what the B+ voltage is.

Hi cspar,
There is a diagram showing only the audio path, posted previously here by forum member Borislav Gajic:
The frequency of parametric filter is varied controlling the brightness of leds on those four vactrols (at the same time in the same direction).
The +B supply is obtained feeding the unit with an 12Vac wall wart to an internal 12 to 220v transformer connected backwards.
I have the original EX pdf file belonging this pedal, so if forum administrator agree to be posted here I need indications of how a file can be attached to a post.
Cheers,
Jose

Thanks Jose.
Nice to see that it's a mostly tube path that runs on 220v. I was hoping for something along those lines.
From your description it seems the frequency pot is just a trimmer for the vactrol leds?
Do you happen to know the specs on the vactrols?
Is there already a thread on the EJX Tube EQ already?

There is a thread somewhere in this forum but I can't find it.
Don't know exactly what kind of vactrols employs this unit and the frequency is controlled by an op amp that can follow an external control voltage or one potentiometer in the front panel.
If we analyze the diagram the four photocells are connected as a twin T filter so I think that must be of equal resistance variation.
Repeat: if moderator agree (and explain how to upload a file) I have an original pdf diagram of this pedal.
Cheers,
Jose

I cannot find it either, but don't remember seeing it...
PDF's don't show up as a preview, you have to convert/export the PDF pages to JPG or some other image format for them to show up in the post.
Feel free to post the schematic -- worst thing ever happened was receiving a Cease and Desist from Diana @ EHX. Perhaps they don't care so much anymore after making a bunch of cash from cloning the Klon Centaur using the FSB schematic.

Hi modman, if EHX took advantage of our Klon research, then they have no reason to complain about publishing this diagram.
There are the diagrams showing the supply and vactrol control subsections discussed previously:

P.S.: I have another 23 original files from EXH ready to disclose here at the forum
