Title: Metatron's FLanger — BYOC Analog Flanger
Post by: Aleph Null on June 14, 2016, 05:30:26 PM
Built from a BYOC Analog Flanger kit. This was my first time working with a water-slide decal. I'm surprised at how well it came out. It did take a couple of attempts to find a shade of yellow that would show up over the pistachio green.

I socketed some parts for future tweaking in the second delay line. I also swapped the B line MN3207 for a MN3208, increasing the delay time. This allows for dual-voice chorusing in "lush" mode.

Great decal work!  It's hard to get straight lines around the border like that.  Well done!

I agree that this is outstanding waterslide decal work, especially considering it's size and the number of straight lines. Great color choices as well.

Thanks! This was my first attempt at a decal. Beginners luck, I guess, because I fought a lot more with the next two decals I attempted.

Is this their Through Zero flanger?

It's almost enough to make me unclench my wallet :)

I don't believe this is a through-zero flanger. None of the documentation says anything like that. Also, wouldn't a through zero require the "dry" signal to be delayed as well? There are two delay lines, but they are both in parallel and out of phase with each other.
