Small Clone Chorus

Small Clone Chorus

This is a layout for the Small Clone chorus. The layout is based on Tonepads layout but squeezes it slightly to make it easier to fit it in a 1590B enclosure.

This chorus sounds wonderful, and apart from getting hold of an MN3007, which requires some work and might score you a fake one, it uses only fairly standard components. Certainly not anything that should be hard to find.
