Setrox was a Swiss-based Amiga and console group, focused on making trainers. They were formed at or immediately after the Escape Copy-Party 1989 in january, as a merger between two smaller Swiss groups, Senses and Atrox (source: News on Tour 7). Demo Fashion 4 (may) listed Laser, Condor, Zyr, Turk 182, Riversoft, The Crown, Hawk, Ex, Contra, Paradroid P001, Taive, Lonely Rider, The Accused, Anonyme, Megatron, Divine Line and Blue Duck Hunter as members. During the summer of 1989, they were in discussions with Brainstorm about cooperation on the diskmag that was to become Zine, but eventually decided against taking part in the project because they doubted Brainstorm's talents. Their coder The Accused, who DID believe in the project, left for Brainstorm to continue working with the mag. Setrox was very successful as a trainer group on the amiga, and after their demise there reappeard in much the same role on the console scene. Their amiga member Cortez eventually left for another group, but was later active for Setrox on consoles.

An interview with Setrox in Zine 2 (december 1989) gives following memberslist: Zyr (Coder, Organizer); Pioneer (Swapper, Sounder); Moses (Modem trader); Cortez (Coder, Trainer).

An interview with Pioneer in News on Tour 7 (May 1990) gives following member list: Zyr (coder), Toneloc (swapper & modemtrader), Pioneer (swapper & musician), Moses (sysop & modemtrader), Dave (gfx), Cortez (trainer & coder). It also announces a newly founded UK section.

The january 1991 releases Pick 'n Pile Trainer and Shuffle +2 announced there had been some changes to the member roster, and proceeded to list BDH, Bols, Condor, Cortez, Deimos, Hawk, Lizard, Megatron, Toneloc, Zork and Zyr as members at that time. Swapper advert in Eurochart 9 (march 1991), listing an address in Zurich, Switzerland.

5th best packdisk maker group and 7th best swapper group in EuroChart Top Ten #3 (1 march 1990).
