EFFECT TYPES: FLANGER

+VARIATION Button

The +VARIATION button allows you to select between two distinct flavors of tape flanging effects: negative and positive summing.

The button essentially flips the phase of the "flanged" signal 180 degrees, creating radically different sounds particularly when the two signals are mixed together.

With negative summing (+VAR “off”) the delayed signal is phase reversed resulting in severe frequency cancellations as the two signals get closer to the zero point. When the two signals are exactly at the same point they will cancel out each other completely.

Positive summing (+VAR “on”) happens when the delayed signal is in phase with the dry signal. When mixed the result is a warm, less extreme, but very musical sound that gets more pronounced as the delayed signal gets closer to the zero point.
