Title: Can I build anything with an MN3007 that isn't a chorus or flanger?
Post by: lincolnic on August 17, 2012, 04:22:35 AM
An open question for people who are more knowledgeable than myself:

The studio where I work has a box where we occasionally offer excess stuff to whoever wants it, for free. I was looking in there today and there was a super beat up Boss Super Chorus (missing the backplate and two knobs), with a piece of tape on it that said "Might work?". Peeking at the circuit board, I saw it had an MN3007 in there. I want to take the pedal for parts, but I know the MN3007 is generally used in choruses or flangers. I'm generally not too interested in those kinds of effects, so I got to wondering if there were any other kinds of projects that use the same chip.

Any ideas?

Short answer: not really.

Slap back delay, about 50mS and vibrato. I'd do an A/DA flanger, I know you say you're not interested but it's a fun toy if nothing else... Or fix and sell the chorus and buy something you do want rather than destroy a pedal.

You do do a workalike for the DOD FX57, which does up to 40ms of delay.  ;D
