[sdiy] The MN3011 - maybe the best chip for making a Through Zero Flanger?

[aankrom]

I was thinking the other day that if you paired up a normal flanger 
circuit with one (or more?) of the outputs of an MN3011, you could get a 
pretty sweet TZF since the taps on the MN3011 aren't multiples of the 
number of stages in whatever BBD you use.

Have we discussed this before? I'm not just trying to gloat again about 
how I got two MN3011's on eBay for $0.11 (for both). It's a shame I've 
had them for as long as I have without building a basic circuit to play 
with them. Too caught up in trying to make an STD-1 clone, but that 
thing is complicated!

I thought I'd make that reverb circuit I've seen (ETI?) and mix it with 
one of the Archer Reverb Sound Effects boards I have built, but not 
"boxed." Then I started thinking of making a cool dual 
Super-Reverb-Flanger-Delay Thingy in this case from an old UV 
spectrograph (another one). It fits 19". I thought I could put two 
spring reverbs in it too. The whole idea was inspired by Ohm Force's 
Ohmboyz VST plug-in. So of course there'd be resonant filters and LFO's. 
And I thought patching it like a modular synth would be cool. A big 
modular delay/flanger/reverb system where everything is redundant - I 
like it.

Two MN3011's, two SAD1024's... do I even need to bother with an MN3005? 
Nah. Maybe I'll sprinkle a few MN3006's in too, because I have a bunch. 
But I may save them for my Korg inspired ensemble project (the beauty of 
the ensemble is that it will have very few controls).
