Quoting from this link:

quote:
" Vol. 4, No. 4 – Mo’ Trem’lo – $14.95  
Despite six 'designer' tremolos through the Cookbook alone, tremolo remains king of the undiscovered effects. This issue shows you why, with a detailed examination of tube-amp tremolo, plus plans for five 'designer' tremolo stompboxes. Tremolo-Matic X is a solid-state embodiment of the “3-tube” tremolo/vibrato found in classic amps; but goes the amps one better by making both halves of the effect variable. Tremolo-Matic XI features an oscillator whose rate varies under control of a secondary oscillator. We're keeping Tremolo-Matic XII a surprise, but can say that it opens the door to a previously unheard category of sounds. The projects conclude with primo B-mods of Tremolo-Matic and Pan Tremolo-Matic, both simplified and adapted to 9V operation without losing their original performance. All five projects feature trim-free oscillators and are built on uncommitted circuit boards; four of the five are single-9V boxes; all power-on with plug insertion. Beginner’s View takes you step-by-step through TM10’s function and assembly; plus a few surprises."
 
 
The $14.95 buys you the schem, probably worth it as opposed to the R & D time you'd spend.
