[sdiy] Studiomaster Studiofex - schematics?

Hiya,

(hopefully this still relates well to synth / DIY / modulars!)

I'm just about to pass Studiomaster Studiofex rack to a friend - it is 
fully loaded with 6 stereo-gates, 4 stereo-compressors and a de-esser.
The Studiofex range was a modular processing rack frame with a variety 
of modules detailed a bit here:

--wish I'd got the Para-Eq, modulation or dual delay!

I've actually quite enjoyed the compressors, but the whole 4U-tall frame 
is way too much for my needs. I'd like to be able to DIY one of these 
compressors for my own modular - the minimality of the design is 
interesting (just four knobs - Input, Ratio, Attack, Release - with 
optional key-input) and looking inside I saw it was based on the LM13700.

If anyone happens to have schematics for this one (or any of the others) 
I'd be really appreciative!
- otherwise I may have to try reverse engineering one of them (urgh)

Cheers,
Tom / BugBrand
