In Use
The MXR Flanger/Doubler is well suited for sound-shaping, recording, and
mixing, and even for adding some post-production flavor. Flanging is partic-
ularly popular as an individual effect on a wide range of musical sources —
including guitar, bass, drums, keyboards, full source material, and more. An-
other common use for the MXR Flanger/Doubler is as a group effect, where
effecting more than one signal is desired. Try applying the MXR Flanger/Dou-
bler to drum busses or even the entire mix, most often for a brief period in the
song, such as a break or bridge. In addition to Flanging, the Flanger/Doubler
excels as a short-range delay/doubler.
