Mu-Tron III

Yeah I didn't even have in mind that Zappa used it that much but that alone should make some people want a pcb. Would also be nice since a pcb for the Mu-Tron Phaser already exists.
 
I built a Mu-Tron III clone called the "naughty fish" from madbeanspedals. There were a few tough things about it but nothing too crazy. Getting the right photocoupler was a real pain at the time though. Since then they discontinued it and replaced it with something else that doesn't really give the Mu-Tron sound as well. Shame. A legit Mu-Tron III clone would be huge.
 
Fuzzdog does a good Mu-tron iii board. The VFE Mini Mu is also a greatly improved implementation of the iii. And if you really want to have fun, the FilterFx from Electric Druid is a iii type filter with an LFO and a bunch of waveforms instead of an envelope follower.
