Was just about to say the specs of a 3207 make it a flanger chip, the 3007 a chorus chip.

An interesting view! I don't think I agree. There's the same 700pF clock pin capacitance in both cases, despite the MN3007 datasheet claiming a 100KHz max freq and the MN3207 claiming a 200KHz max freq. Wasn't the Electric Mistress

Other figures are pretty similar. S/N ratio is slightly better on the 3007 (-80dB vs -73db) probably due to the larger signal level, with generated noise in the chips being fairly similar. The THD is slightly worse on the 3007 (0.5% versus 0.4%) which suggests to me that they pushed the 3007 slightly harder for the tests too, which would help the S/N level. However, that's a very small difference, so I really shouldn't read anything into it. Bad Druid! Naughty Druid!

Well a new unearthing of this post.

With a MN3102 chip the VGG of a MN3207 can be pushed to 14-15V accordingly to the datasheet (if I'd understooded it well). BTW I beg that the improvment in THD and the lower S/N ratio are nullified and that the MN3207 keep it's higher clock rate and so it's min tdelay time.

Boss was using those chips in the embeded CE2/BF2 of the BE5 and ME5 multifxs.
