I had a lot of trouble with this one, but I finally got it fired up! It was worth sticking it out, it sounds cool.

Thanks to scruffie for help with the debug!

Great job! This is a challenging but satisfying build! Mine had some issues as well (all my fault) but sounds great now.

Congrats on sticking it out.

Sweetness.  Congrats on the build.

Can you describe how it sounds?  More to the point: can you somehow begin to describe what sets the ADA flanger apart from the others?  I've always wanted an ADA but at the end of the day I already built an Electric Mistress that I never play.  So I need the encouragement!

Thanks guys.

I haven't had much time to play with it.  I was pretty pumped to get it working and wanted to post it right away. 

First impressions: it sounds really nice, I've built the EM, as well, and I prefer this one.  I ordered a new MM with better frequency range, I'm hoping to get it dialed in even better.  The odd/even control is really dramatic and gives you pretty distinct sounds, one hollow and the other round.  The threshold control is different, you can set up a crazy flange sound and gate it.  The rest is pretty standard flange controls, so, the sound quality would depend on your personal taste.

Great looking build! Glad to see you were able to get it working. I've been a bit lazy to take this one on but should really build it at some point.

Well, now you're whetting my appetite.  Thanks for that.
