Fair enough. It WOULD be the chip of choice if oen were to tackle some sort 
of Dynacord clone - like perhaps the TAM-21. I've looked and looked for 
schematics, to no avail. I DO have the schematics for a CLS-222 and I would 
need TDA1022's for that puppy. I think the TDA1074's might be tougher to 
come by - what a weird part choice...

Maybe Dynacord has them horded up somewhere...

I do think the triple-chorus is a good project. But the Stormtide Flanger 
was the one where I just happened to have all of the parts (well except for 
the pots...).
