Instant Flanger Mk II

Instant Flanger Mk II

Spread the Sound Around with Pseudo Stereo. Turn flat mono guitars into huge stereo leads or have your single-channel synthesizer fill out the sides of your mix with pseudo-stereo.

Features

• Depth controls the intensity of the effect.
• No iLok dongle is required to run this software – only a FREE iLok account/Manager is required for authorization.
• A truly versatile tool, engineers and producers have used it for stereo sweetening, subtle modulations, double-tracking, and extreme flanging effects.
• -100 % subtracts the dry signal from the delayed signal
• Three distinct flavours of flanging.
• 100% adds the delayed signal to the dry signal.
• In the tape era, before the introduction of electronic effects devices, the terms “phasing” and “flanging” were used interchangeably.
• True End-to-end Emulation
• Tape machines use servo motors to run at a constant speed and when an engineer pressed a thumb on the flange and then suddenly let go, the capstan motor servo reacts – overshooting and undershooting as it seeks to recover proper speed.
• Classic Flanging for a Modern Mix
• The Instant Flanger Mk II brings the great sound of vintage tape flanging to your plug-in toolbox.
• In other words, it ‘bounces’.
• Set the Mode switch for Shallow, Deep or Wide
• Manual control allows you to control the ‘comb’ effect by turning the Big Knob
• Oscillator drives the flanging at a user-defined rate
• Envelope Follower drives the flanging based on the signal’s amplitude
• Remote maps the flanging control to a mod wheel for tactile manipulation
• Bounce mimics the distinctive effect of the tape machine’s capstan motor “hunting” for its proper speed when the engineer’s thumb was lifted from the tape reel flange
• “Side Chain” allows for triggering the Envelope Follower from any source in the mix for inter-track mingling
• Exercise total control of the Oscillator with Sync and Retrig
• Tame the intensity by removing low frequencies from the flanged signal with the Low Cut control
