This module is a special rerelease of the “Mark 1” Bionic Lester circuit with the unreleased “Mark 2” control layout. The Bionic Lester Mark 1 was first released in 2012, and only had one production run. It uses a rare switched-capacitor filter IC with multiple outputs and four operating modes. The character of the overdrive changes with each mode selection and all are distinctive. 

DIFFERENCES FROM THE ORIGINAL MODULE:

• • Reverse power protection
  • Metal shaft pots, long life
  • ALL of the knobs are MK2 style
  • Resistor network and opamp package substitutions for compact PCB layout and greater manufacturability
  • Output mixer and A/B crossfader. A feature from the planned but never designed “Aggro Eddie” expander. Enables more elaborate feedback and overdrive patches.
