Octave down circuit. In the main mode your input signal splits into a dry path, a high pass filter, and a low pass filter - those latter two essentially forming a primitive crossover, and each component of the signal (minus dry) feeds its own octave divider. It's all discrete transistor instead of divider chips though (those sections are based on analog computer texts from the early 1960s). Each divided output feeds a waveshape section, and is then can be mixed back in with some dry signal to taste. There's an output each for both high and low frequency dividers, or the two are mixed to one output if a second plug is not inserted. (outer output jack is the combined output if inner output jack is not inserted)
Add in a feedback path or two to allow instability or re-triggering of the dividing flip-flop sections and it takes on a life of its own.
I'll certainly start a thread on in once I have them dialed and available.

The bipolar power converter (RMA Boxer PCB depicted on page 7) is specifically ordered for the preamps, it just so happens it potentially solves other problems as well. My goal is to use the preamp circuit while recording demos, unless the character does not go neutral enough, then I'll just use them to blast things. So - yeah, that's on the short list, and you're first in line for the right of rejection.

this is what i like to hear. suuuuper excited for this, can't wait to see how it pans out and to finally get to try it out. currently what control/parameter set are you looking at including for knobs to adjust sound of the preamp (if im allowed to ask)?
