I am also interested in such sound effects and think they might be of enough
general interest to post to the net.  If you don't think so, then at least
be kind enough to E-mail me a copy of replies, too.  TIA!!!

For my own questions, what are the standard impedances for "high-Z and low-Z"
audio inputs?  I know that there are matching transformers to convert from
the three-pin microphone connectors (low impedance) to 1/4" plugs (high),
but what impedances are they matching?  If I wanted to design some sort of
sound effect box, would I need to match my input impedance with some
external impedance, or would there be any problems using the textbook
op-amp principle of really high input impedance and really low output
impedance?  (I'm not talking about a passive box.)  

TIA again,
Bill
