From the vendor

The author's expanded Fulltone OCD (itself based on the Voodoo Lab Overdrive): an OPA2134 gain stage into a pair of 2N7000/BS170 MOSFET clippers, then a second op-amp stage set up as a clean boost, a tone control and volume. It adds a pre-gain Bass control borrowed from Paul C's Timmy, a Saturation pot that raises the clipping headroom, the Boost control, and a switch between 9V and 18V from a MAX1044 doubler.

The 10K-15K resistor after the gain stage: choose the value that suits your gear. The tone cap can be anything from 22n to 68n; a larger value gives a darker tone. Low-voltage-drop diodes can replace the 1N4001s in the voltage doubler.

Check before you build · 2 values the reader of this schematic was not sure of
  • The vero layout (unverified, by beedotman) uses a 50K trimmer for Bass and a 100K trimmer for Saturation, where the schematic has a 50KB Bass pot and a 10KB Saturation pot.
  • The MAX1044's second (pump) capacitor is not clearly drawn; only the 10u reservoir caps are.
