Does anyone have one of these lying about?  I'm going to google it as well, but If somebody has one, I'd be most appreciatve.  I need to isolate the switching portion of the circuit, so I can remove it and make it true-bypass.  I bought one for $20 at a local music store because the "music manager" there said it was broken.  Well, true, it was unusable as the input jack had lost it's nut, and was currently sitting inside the pedal.  But I have extra nuts lying about my bench.  And lo and behold, a nut later, a working compressor!  I just would really prefer true-bypass.  Thanks!

So far, my search has turned up just about every other DOD pedal, just not this one.   :icon_rolleyes:

I found this at HCDIY but he doesn't say how to do it. I would like to do one of mine too.

See, I don't so much need the entire schematic, just the isolated switching portion.  Perhaps if I can post a shot of the board, someone can help with what to remove and where the switch wires would go?
