    2 2.1 The Instant Flanger Originally released in 1976, the Eventide Clockworks Instant Flanger was designed to emulate true tape flanging. As its time-delay circuit, using the now ubiquitous ”bucket brigade chips”, produced many more nulls and offered a much deeper flanging ef- fect than anything previously available, it was widely used on many legendary record- ings.

    Hence you are controlling the depth of the nulls! Stereorizer The Eventide Clockworks Instant Flanger had two outputs: a Main out and an Aux out. The Main output is the output of two bucket brigade devices in series, while the Aux output is the output from a single bucket brigade device.

    In addition to being able to individually select any one of these flanging methods, the In- stant Flanger also gives you the ability to sum any or all of these control inputs together. This means, for example, that the flanging could be controlled by both the Oscillator and the Envelope Follower at the same time.

    2.5 Main Panel Line Bypasses the plug-in. When engaged, the signal is passed through the plug-in; when off, the plug-in is bypassed. Bounce Mimics the effect of the tape reel servo motors bouncing when you release them after slowing them down. At 0% there’s no bounce, at 100% there is maximum bounce.
  • Page 10: Threshold

    Threshold Controls the threshold of the envelope follower. This is variable from -30dB to -0dB. An input signal at this level will result in the biggest change in phase shift when using the envelope follower control. Release Sets the release time of the envelope follower. Release times can vary from 10 milliseconds to 10 seconds.

    2.6 Expansion Panel Input Sets the input gain of the plug-in. Can vary from -60dB to +12dB. Sync Tempo syncs the LFO to the tempo of the current session. The oscillator rate is then set in metrical subdivisions ranging from 16 bars to note.

    In many DAWs there is an additional generic preset bar that saves DAW-specific presets to a separate location. We recommend saving your presets using the Eventide preset bar to ensure that your presets will be accessible from any DAW. You can also create sub-folders inside the preset folders, if you wish.
