1429.0. "SAD4096 for "Chorus/Delay"" by KAOFS::D_STJEAN (CSC's/RDC's of the world, Unite!) Fri Aug 18 1989 15:49

    In the Jan./82 Guitar Player issue, Craig Anderton had a "Chorus/Delay"
    project based on the Reticon SAD4096 chip. PGS Electronics was listed
    as carrying the components and circuit boards, they have since moved.
    Would anybody have an address/phone number for PGS if they are still
    in business, or another source for the SAD4096?
    
    I was pointed to ELECTRO_HOBBY from COMMUSIC, just thought I'd try
    here seeing as it was a GP article.
    
    Thanks,
    Denis.

    Don't get your hopes up.  The Reticon SAD1024 and SAD4096 chips
    that were used in a lot of early analog delay/chorus/flange circuits
    are hard to come by.  I'm pretty sure the 1024 is gone for good
    (Radio Shack *used* to sell them) and probably the 4096 as
    well.
    
    The article gave a components list and circuit board drawings, so
    you could always etch your own board.
