Using the Phlngr
Description of Controls
Rate
The [RATE] knob changes the flanging modulation speed.
In normal modulation modes (TEMPO SYNC LED off), turning
the [RATE] knob alters the rate continuously from very slow to
very fast. Turn the knob clockwise for a faster speed, counter-
clockwise for a classically-slow sweep.
Rate knob operation in TEMPO SYNC mode
When the Phlngr is in TEMPO SYNC mode, the fundamental
modulation speed is set by the TAP TEMPO function, and the
rate knob can be used to adjust that rate to an even fraction or
multiple of the current tempo:
•
With the knob indicator in the 12 o'clock position, the mod
rate will be the same as tempo (i.e, quarter note).
•
Turn the knob to the left to set the mod rate at a half of the
tempo (i.e., one cycle per half note), then a quarter of the
tempo (once per measure).
•
Turn the knob to the right (clockwise) to set the modulation
to twice the tempo (eighth notes), or four times the tempo
(sixteenth notes).
The diagram below shows where you can set the [RATE] knob to
modulate the flanger at different multiples of the tempo during
TEMPO SYNC mode.
Depth
The [DEPTH] knob changes the intensity of the flanging effect,
by increasing the total delay time region that the flange "scans".
[DEPTH] interacts considerably with the [RATE] control (see next
page). Low [DEPTH] settings are very subtle, unless the [RATE]
is set high. Turn the knob clockwise for a deeper effect. Turning
[DEPTH] all the way counter-clockwise turns flanging off
completely.
