Dear Justin,
Hey thank you for getting back to me so quickly. Yes I built 2 4 cubes, and can honestly say I will not ever do that again. I appreciate the information you gave. The lm 567 looks to be an interesting chip. I wonder if I will have to get 20 of them, and tune them to the desired frequency using resistors and caps. Still a few unknown properties, guess it is play with chips time. Keep me posted and again thank you. I will let you know what I come up with as well. Hoping for a very exciting effect!
Sincerely

Yes, for 20 channels you will need 20 lm567s. If you can solder surface mount chips then you could use the SMA version and come up with a very small board to utilize 20 channels. I would buy a few DIP ones first to determine the wiring and resistor/capacitor values. Once you get that you will have to boot the output with a transistor, probably a MOSFET would be good.
