MPX 110
FLANGE
Flange effects were originally created by simultaneously
recording and playing back two 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 front panel Mix knob to Wet to achieve the full
flange effect of these program variations.
