Isn't this the same effect that can be produced with a
Frequency Shifter and an (optional) extra all pass (or phaser)
module?

Now that FS are nothing too exotic anymore, you might try
these setups:

A)  Signal into FS

    Mix Upshift (or Downshift) output with input signal

    Set the amount of frequency shift to a low value
    (like 1/5 or 1/10 Hz)

B) Signal into an all pass filter (you can use an
   ordinary phaser, if you can set the output mix completely
   to the "wet" signal. Schulte Compact A does this.
   And it can easily be hacked into _any_ cheap phaser
   stomp box, too ...)

   All Pass ilter output goes to FS input.

   Upshift (or Downshift) output is mixed with input
   signal _before_ the all pass filter (_not_ with FS
   input signal!)

   Frequency shift in low range, as above.


C) Finally, try the above with upshift/input mix on
   left stereo channel, and downshift/input mix
   on right stereo channel.


Always make sure that your mix is precisely at 50%
wet/dry, for deep phasing notches.
