No magic - just utilizing high quality VCAs with limited output swing
for a general all pass block. Intention is a high quality reissue of the
Variable Slope Filter / Phaser, for example. It's important to have
control of each individual pole (in LP case) or pole / zero pair (in AP
case). 
Adding HP and LP in the SVF gives a Notch Filter (i.e. "2-pole phaser"),
not the mere all pass building block.
