Chapter 8 Modulation 55
Flanger
The Flanger works in a similar fashion to the Chorus, but with a shorter delay time, and
the output signal being fed back into the input of the delay line. Use the Intensity slider
to determine the Flanger’s modulation width. Speed sets the frequency of the
modulation. Feedback determines the amount of the delayed signal that is routed back
into the input. Negative values invert the phase of the routed signal. The Mix slider
determines the balance of dry and wet signals.
Phaser
The Phaser emulates the effect of analog phaser circuits with four to twelve orders (as
in 4th order, 5th order and so on) Use the Order slider to set the desired number of
orders. As a rule, the more orders a phaser has, the heavier the effect. The 4, 6, 8, 10,
and 12 settings put five different phaser algorithms at your fingertips, all of which
replicate the analog circuits that they are modeled on, each designed for a specific
application.
Note: You are free to select odd numbered settings (5, 7, 9, 11), which, strictly speaking,
don’t generate actual phasing. The more subtle comb filtering effects produced by odd
numbered settings can, however, come in handy on occasion.
