Members triviani Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 My favorite flanger? The one that sits in the box, unused.I'm permanently scarred from the Great Flanger Abuse of the 1980's, and don't expect to ever recover.It's a nasty, nasty little effect IMHO. I understand your point.. These 80s metal riffs almost end with the existence of flanger!! I had the same idea about it, not wanting to even touch one. But I have recently got interest into experiment with flanger and clean parts. Some kind of soft modulation without the jet stuff. Looking to try a Hartman flanger now!

Members Pewtershmit Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 You feel me now? Lol, don't blame flanging for that mess! You need to listen to good flange! This solo is absolute RAPE. The whole "is there anybody out there" live Pink Floyd cd is absolutely riddled with flange tones that give shivers down me spine.[YOUTUBE]aj5pyDqrMzo[/YOUTUBE] Might be a bit too 80's for your taste but I like it![YOUTUBE]xx86CxKYtg0[/YOUTUBE] My Hero![YOUTUBE]F2Z2TzYYTQM[/YOUTUBE] And of course, being supposedly one of the originators of flanging. The Beatles have great examples of real flanging. Like finger on the flange type {censored}, indie cred style. I LOVE FLANGERS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members nankuamedha Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 Not a huge flanger fan, phasers are more up my alley. Had a DEM for years that was really cool, great for suble chorusy stuff. Got rid of it in the end though. The Flanger Hoax rules! Very versitle, intense and insane. I would like to own one some day, untill then I'll have to keep borrowing my friends. PDS 20/20 is a great delay/chorus/vibrato/flanger box, I doubt it's true bypass, but whatever.

Members ChrisFFTA Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 Digitech PDS1700 or the FL9. True bypass... no... who cares Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Saturnine10 Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 My DS-1 never sounded nearly as good as that one A/DAhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBJDTPL-RZ0&feature=fvw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kpd78 Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 Not true bypass but I don't care; it sounds great. (It would be really easy to mod it for TB anyway.) 1979 Guyatone Moving Box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Hurtzher Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 I am using a Hartman Flanger now. IMO, the best flanger out there. Although, the Frostbyte sounds pretty cool too. I've tried the MXR (mini version) and I still own a DOD FX75B. The DOD would be great for the money they go for. But, WOW.....the Hartman. I use it before my dirt boxes. It nails the Gilmour/Summers/Lifeson flange tones. Sounds great on clean tones too. true bypass. Can't say enough good things about it. Well, it is kinda expensive....

Members bowlingshirt Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 I have a Deluxe Elec Mistress and a Flanger Hoax, and if I'm wanting flanger/chorus sounds, I always go to the DEM. I wouldn't get the Flanger Hoax unless you are looking for something that can do a TZF effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JRBain Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 Well... I have an old MIJ BF-2. It sounds fine and was cheap. Not TB, though. The Ibanez Paul Gilbert sig Airplane Flanger sounds really great from what I've heard of it. It's apparently based on the old ADA flangers. I have read reviews from ADA owners who have said that they did a good job. I think the best I've ever heard though is the original Electric Mistress, which Gilmour used/still uses, right? If I could own any flanger, that would be it. Isn't the Hartman flanger based on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sanquilo Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 Dunno if it's true bypass, but I really like the DOD FX75B Stereo Flanger. I got mine for 25.00 bucks on the bay. I'm currently running the stereo electric Mistress, but I think I actually like the DOD more. Got a fx72 (which is pretty much the same circuit) for 40 on the bay, a blend control would be great, but it is a good pedal as is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members nankuamedha Posted October 12, 2010 Members Share Posted October 12, 2010 EH Polychorus is an awsome flanger too. Some great subtle to really out there sounds, a bit more controllable then the Hoax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Seth Carmody Posted October 13, 2010 Members Share Posted October 13, 2010 Electric Mistress for pedal flanger sounds. The HOAX does tape flanging sounds, but I found it a bit too noisy for use on clean. Put a fuzz before it and you're in TZF heaven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The myth stuck around and still gets repeated... Question what are you trying to say here. I didn't mean that a beatle invented the technique. I was merely stating the the beatniks were one of the first ones to use it quite a lot. Are you saying that this technique was not accomplished by having two reels running at the same time and pushing your finger on the "flange" of one of the reels? i got my info from here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flanging Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
