max, you are interested in effect mechanisms? the www offers all what you want. even descriptions about lexicon reverb algorithms. a good start is:
Harmony Central - Effects Explained
take the google search and you will be surprised...
or do you mean my effect algorithms?
my know how is from www sources, books, experiences with music hardware.
the most important fact is the "right ear". you have to trim our effects until they sound better than a world class effects unit.

and i know, a 32 bit emu can do.
the effects i wrote, are some painfully missed ones in the kx driver bundle. so i did it.
musicans won't search for a long time in www to get what they want. they want make music with good effects.
maybe i will write some additions to the dsp beginners guide, which is quite good.
