Description: Flangers fascinate me. I believe they are the most overlooked effect, and usually just thought of as "the weird modulation." BUT THEY DO SO MUCH. They helped usher in the first wave of studio experimentation, decades before pedals even existed. They just require a bit of getting to know and a steady hand. So this video is both a celebration of the humble flange, and a guide to getting the most out of it.
