When to use it
A classic flanger with a bucket-brigade sound, good for guitars, drums, synths and vocals, and for jet-style sweeps or subtle doubling. It is simpler than modern multi-mode modulation plug-ins such as PhaseMistress or ShaperBox 3. Best for rock, funk, psych and 80s-flavoured production.
