This is why cascading two of them can sound REALLY funky - as in putting old
CRL analog processors (or Audio Prisms with Glen's phase scrambler installed)
in front of an Optimod 8100.

One of the phase scramblers had to go....

This is the same principle that today's audio processors use,
except it is accomplished with solid state components. All
pass filters. Each designer uses differing amounts of phase
rotation which produces different sounding audio.
