6. FLANGER Function

The FLANGER function is available if you have selected it in the MODULATION EFX Function.

Flanging involves splitting the input signal into at least two individual delayed signals (Voice 1 and

voice 2), then modulating these delayed signals so that, when summed back with the direct signal, phase

cancellations will occur at some frequencies while peaks in the response will occur at others.

The PARAMETER SELECT knob will allow you to access these FLANGER parameters:

The Flanger IN/OUT parameter determines whether the Flanger is active for the

current preset.

The LEVEL 1 parameter determines the volume of Voice 1 relative to Voice 2.

Tip: Keep the settings of these levels high and use the

DIR/EFF mix parameter in the Mixer function to con-

trol the overall amount of flanged signal.

The PAN 1 parameter allows you to pan Voice 1 to the left or right

channel.

The DEPTH 1 parameter adjusts the amount of modulation of Voice 1 . Lower

DEPTH settings produce more subtle effects, while higher settings will result in

a more drastic effect.

The RATE 1 parameter determines the speed at which Voice 1 is modulated.

The LEVEL 2 parameter determines the volume of Voice 2 relative to Voice 1.

The PAN 2 parameter allows you to pan Voice 2 to the left or right

channel.

The DEPTH 2 parameter adjusts the amount of modulation of Voice 2. Lower

DEPTH settings produce more subtle effects, while higher settings will result in

a more drastic effect.

The RATE 2 parameter determines the speed at which Voice 2 is modulated.

The REGENERATION parameter determines how much of the delayed out-

put signal is fed back into the input. More regeneration produces a more pro-

nounced "jet airplane" type of effect.
