FLANGERS

Flangers are like choruses with the exception that part of the effected
signal is returned back to the input.  This is known as feedback.
Settings with larger feedback settings will create more dramatic “jet
airplane” type effects.

PHASERS

Phasers, like Flangers,split the input signal into 2 paths.  One path
remains unaffected while the other is modulated in and out of phase.
When this is combined with the original, part of this signal is returned
back to the input (feedback).  Increased feedback settings can produce
very spacey sounds, reminiscent of late 60’s early 70’s music.

TREMOLO

Tremolos modulate the level of the signal.  This effect is has been found
in guitar amps for years and has recently become a popular effect
again.  The TEC8 gives you 9 speeds ranging from 2.0 Hz - 9.0 Hz

.

RING MODULATOR

The Ring Modulator produces mathematically related sounds 

rather than a harmonically related sounds.  It is useful for atonal and
percussive-like effects.

PIXELLATOR  

The Pixellator takes the input signal and undersamples it to create a

raw digital version of the original.  This effect is popular in industrial,
rap, and techno music.
