Panjit literally, currently manufactures high-voltage BBD chips that are sonically equivalent to Panasonic MN series?
Or they *could* if someone was to pay for a full-scale production run?
These are two very, very different things, if you're a small manufacturer...

They CAN and it isn't that expensive for a run of 500 or more chips. (Compared to the cost of not being able to get them at all.) The more you order, the cheaper it is as the setup is what costs. I'm not a small MFG at all and it looks feasable at this point to try and run some CEM's for sale as the availability of certain ones is down to nothing and they are what are needed to bring some old machines to life. That would also open up the possibilty of NEW synths using these chips. (Analog-poly machines. Hint, nudge)

Just the only stand alone unit to have it.) And all the hype about limited just means too expensive to me. Now, if it came out in MU Format, that would be a different story.
I agree, Limited Edition = $$$$$, if they offered this in MU I'd really consider buying it for sure, but as nice as it may sound, i can't justify paying almost $600 for a fooger pedal again.

I'm curious to know how closely these are related.

More like 519.

My thought was that it would make me really happy if the internal design was based on one of Bob Moog's own circuits.

The ability to control Delay Time w/ MIDI Notes for “tuned” flanger comb-filter effects.

Suddenly very interesting!

erick: $519 you say?

Well, you know that Moog or Michelle has the schematics in the archives somewhere, and Ive been hoping that they would stumble upon some gem in the archives for some protype schem long since forgotten.

But considering that that unit was a prototype chorus flanger....I don't see why it wouldn't be something similar. Unfortunately the dude that owns that hasn't psoted any demos or taken any shots of the inside.

All we can do is wait and see.
