Looking at the Peavey DSC-4 dual clock chorus. It has 4 controls, 2x speed and 2x depth controls for each "clock". It really only has one clock, but 2x LFOs(072s) that look to be combined into a comparator(U3-B)and fed into the 3101. I would think this could confuse or glitch the 3101 but it makes for a very lush chorus.
Perhaps something similar is occuring in the MXR. Or it is somehow creating a decade of the LFO?

There are a bunch of dual LFO choruses from that era and in practice the clock just sees a different pattern of rising and falling voltages over time than with a single LFO. The LFO with the higher depth control generally has more influence over the movement of the overall voltage. With both depth controls in the middle you can get interesting non-linear LFO movement.

IIRC the Peavey is a little different because it has two different LFO shapes.

Did anyone consider the possibility that maybe it's just being used for something very dull, like switching? For that fancy new LED?

I appreciate it guys and I haven't quit. I just need to find my motivation again, somehow.

I'll be in Hville in a couple of hours. I'll swing by and Rochambeau ya if that helps.

A good beating might be needed. I don't mean that in a perverted way, lol.

What a tease :p

We all been there. I forget every time how the loophole works, and in which order one has to stomp it.

About the sound getting weak, there I have no Idea. My guess would be a capacitor or the bias changing somewhere.
The compander does the rest of the job and just filters it out.

Maybe you could check it with an audio probe.
