I'm experimenting in a MN3007 chorus that at high clock rate should work as flanger, but wich are the correct values of clock frequency for generate a deep chorus and the correct clock values for generate a jetplane flanger?

I'm sure that an MN3007 driven by f=80KHz clock and df=+/-20KHz, generate a good chorus.
For a deep chorus I have to generate lower range  of clock frequency?
For a jetplane flanger the BBD clock should be around f=1MHz? Wich df occour?
For frequency between 80KHz and 1MHz how BBD work? As chorus or flanger?

I'm using a MC14046 as VCO for drive the BBD clock pin. Someone can tell me wich voltage value I need on the PLL VCO input for obtain this chorus and flanger.

Thanks in advance.

For a deep chorus I have to generate lower range  of clock frequency?  YES.  A sweep of 4msec-20msec will sound "thicker" than 2-10msec, even though they both have the same sweep ratio.
For a jetplane flanger the BBD clock should be around f=1MHz? Wich df occour?  Doesn't have to be, but yes, anything that makes the highest point in the sweep as short a delay, and as much under 1msec, as possible, will produce more dramatic flange sweeps.....IF they also sweep to a much slower clock rate.  Sweeping between 500usec and 3msec will not produce dramatic "jet plane" sweeps.
For frequency between 80KHz and 1MHz how BBD work? As chorus or flanger?  A bit of each.  According to experts, you want at least a 30:1 sweep, and generally more, in the delay.  So if the shortest delay is 500usec, then you want it to sweep out to 15msec to get dramatic effects.  80khz->1mhz = 12.5:1

Thanks in advance.
