CompreRoss Ro/Dy Mod

Rev.5.Mar.13.2002

When there’s a board that can be populated as two very famous effects, the question always is “which
effect should I build on this board?” To help with this issue, here’s a mod that involves adding a 4 pole
double throw toggle switch so that you don’t have to make that decision. Populate the board with the
resistors for the Rosscomp, but leave the capacitors out. Instead, solder wire leads to the pads
marked on the layout below. Take the switch and solder the caps to it, all the negative leads of the
electrolytics go to ground, and the positives go to the respective poles. Switch ON: you get Ross,
Switch OFF: Dyna. MXR and Dynacomp are registered trademarks owned by Dunlop.
