Schumann Lion

Here is a layout for the rare Schumann Lion distortion.
Original brief description:
The LION is a distortion device and a clean booster with two complete circuits that can be mixed independently.

Has a bypass footswitch and boost footswitch that gives extra distortion.

Great for bass — distortion that doesn’t cut out the low end.

Great for guitar — minor chords retain clean harmonics — you can get great distortion but still hear definition of notes.
