Overview

Flanging, and its relatives.

MetaFlanger recreates 60s tape flanging, including the through-zero behaviour that produces true null points, which is the part most flangers do not attempt. Delay times run from 0 to 50 ms, covering phasing, flanging and chorusing depending where they sit. High and low pass filter modes thin or warm the flanged signal, and a link option ties the controls together. It handles psychedelic guitar, ethereal vocals, rotating speaker effects and flanging an entire mix.
