FLANGER

Rate: Controls the speed of the effect: CCW is slow, CW is fast.
Depth: Controls the depth of the effect (maximum is "through zero
flanging").
Variable: 'Feedback' level: CCW is high negative feedback, middle is no
feedback, CW is high positive feedback.
Blend: Mixes the dry with the wet: CCW is fully dry, CW is fully wet.
Volume: Overall volume of effect: CCW -6db, middle is 0db, CW +6db.
INTERESTING STUFF: All the fun stuff here is in the VARIABLE, BLEND and DEPTH
control. You're gonna have to keep an eye on the blend control, as the natural
place, you would think, is to put it straight up at noon. This MAY make it
overbearing, so drop it down so it's not dominating the sound. Don't be surprised
if you have it MUCH lower than you think, it's perfectly natural. The VARIABLE
controls the type of whoosh you get, and the DEPTH cam change the response in
a heartbeat.

ENVELOPE FILTER

Rate: Controls the speed of the attack and release.
Depth: Adjusts the envelope sensitivity. CCW is much less sensitive than
CW
Variable: The "Q" of the filter: CCW is thin, CW is fatter.
Blend: Mixes the dry with the wet: CCW is fully dry, CW is fully wet.
Volume: Overall volume of effect: CCW -6db, middle is 0db, CW +6db.
INTERESTING STUFF: Best to start with the RATE and VARIABLE at high noon and
the blend maxed, this will give you a real good feel for the effect before you start
tweaking. This is the point where you start moving the DEPTH control to darkness
of the effect. Remember, the difference from the AUTOWAH is that the effect
reacts to your pick attack!

INTERESTING STUFF: Best to start with the RATE and VARIABLE straight up and

filter goes and the Q will control the resonance.
