Title: Companding & Flanging
Post by: redeffect on December 21, 2005, 01:26:25 PM
i'm in the process of designing my own flanger. after scouring over as many schematics as i possibly get my hands on, i noticed one common thing. no companding. it seems that if there was ever an effect that was begging for companding, the flanger would be it. there seem to be 2 options. (1) pre input / post output: and (2) pre delay line/ post delay line (as per most analog delays). I want to institute true companding: not the common "Quasi/pre emphasis/post de-emphasis" thing that everyboby seems to do. I can easily buy one like that, so that would defeat the whole concept of "rolling my own". half the fun is building something that you cant find commercially(for me anyhow). any thoughts on this? ideas? real life experiences?
thanks .
