photosensor to a flanger or phaser?

[markphaser]

How do i connect a photosensor to a flanger or phaser ?
Is the photosensor controlling the LFO or Delay/phase time but how do i connect it please?
is the photosensor in series or parallel with the LFO or delay/phase time?

A photosensor can be triggered by movement of a hand or light

I would think you could rig a photosensor to control any of the same functions that are normally controlled by a potentiometer, so it's more a matter of what do you want to control with the photosensor. As for the nuts and bolts of actually hooking it up, I think there may be info about that in the archives here, but I'm not sure.

do u replace the pot with the photosensor but does it need additional circuit network with the photosensor to make it work variable ?
