Not exactly effects...  but if you like chip pron, Ken Shirriff has deconstructed the TI SN76477 sound effects chip:

Thanks, Jack.
Thomas Henry did some good work with this chip, nice sounds including un-synth like sounds.

Thanks.

I did several projects with Tom back in the late 1990s that were featured in Popular Electronics and Nuts-and-Volts magazines, but none of then used the SN76477.

Best regards, Jack
