Program Descriptions

FLANGE

Flange effects were originally created by simultaneously playing back identical programs on two tape recorders, then using hand pressure against the flange of the tape reels to slow down first one machine, then the other. The result was a series of changing phase cancellations and reinforcements, with characteristic swishing, tunneling, and fading sounds.

The stereo flanger has two 2-Tap delays - one per channel. The first tap is fixed, and the second sweeps past it. Mixing the two delay taps together creates the flanging effect.

Set the Mix parameter to Wet to achieve the full flange effect of these programs.
