General Comments
I have this for one day and I already like it a lot. As I said before, it can be both very subtle and an extremely dramatic. It doesn't do the Jet-swoooosh-flanging however. Or at least not very well.
It sounds great if depth is set to low values, 2-4 maybe. Set a slow speed and turn the manual up to 5, feeback to 0 - perfect. Nice modulating chorus/flanger. It really hasn't got that swooosh thing.
And yeah, it does self-oscillation. You don't even have to turn the feedback pot up much, at 5 and low manual settings, you can catch some oscillation that really sounds great when distorted, pure warbling frequency madness - great.
I like the fact that the pots are really very linear, depth goes from near-nothing to full intensity nice and clean, speed goes from ultra-slow to maybe 10 Hz, manual goes up very high and feeback can get you screaming self-oscillation easily.
