Yet another BBD question...

[Smits, Eduard]

YES quit right. In dutch we call the memory chip involved a "emmertjes
geheugen"  (bucket-memory). And I know for sure there has been a DIY project
in the "Elektuur" (that's the Dutch version of the German "Elektor" wich we
all know for the Formant) for a bucket-memory delay unit. Maybe someone
still has this schematic to share??? Maybe Rick???

Regards, Ed
