7.4.5. Flanger

Flanging works by mixing two nearly-identical signals together, with one signal delayed by

a small and gradually changing period. This produces a swept “comb filter” effect as the

delayed signal adds and subtracts from the original due to phase cancellation at multiple

frequencies simultaneously.

Control

Description

Stereo

Switches the flanger output between mono and stereo.

LP Freq

Low Pass Filter, range 1 kHz to 20 kHz. Use this to reduce the range of high-frequency content
that will enter the flanger effect. Double-click to set to the default of 10 kHz.

HP Freq

High Pass Filter, range 30 Hz to 800 Hz. This rolls off low-frequency content that the flanger
effect will receive. Double-click to set to the default of 125 Hz.

Shape

Toggles the modulation LFO between sine and triangle waveforms

Polarity

Changes flanger feedback to subtractive (negative) rather than additive

Feedback

Adds feedback for a harsher or "ringing" sound, similar to a resonant filter. Maximum is 99% to
avoid runaway feedback.

Delay

Sets the base delay frequency, which changes the spacing and frequency of the resulting comb
filter.

Depth

Sets the range of delay time that will be scanned around the base frequency. When Depth is 0,
the comb filter stays at a fixed position set by the Drive control.

Frequency

Controls the "sweep speed" of the flange effect. In Hertz mode, the range is from 0.005 to 10
Hz, or if in a Sync mode, speed of flanging is synchronized with tempo. For a description of the
Sync binary, Triplets, and Dotted options, see

Rate Type [p.61]

.

Appears as a Mod Destination in

the Mod Matrix.

Dry/Wet

Controls the balance between the input signal and the effected signal.

Note: flanging

characteristics are strongest when there is a mix of dry and wet signals.
