FLANGER? I hardly know 'er!
With all this flanger talk floating around ILF lately, I thought it might be nice to consolidate all things flangeresque into one thread.
Let's talk about flange!

Re: FLANGER? I hardly know 'er!
While I bought my first (and so far only) flanger on a whim, I'd say that the first flange'd riffs that come to mind are the opening to Tool's 46&2 and the Floyd's Have a Cigar.
Goddamn, flanger, why you gotta be so much cooler than chorus?

I rock a purple Ross Flanger on the reg'lar. Internal trimpots opened up to let her wail.

Re: FLANGER? I hardly know 'er!
My guitar player built me a BYOC stereo flanger to use on bass, and it is RIDONKULOUSLY awesome. However, it does seem to have some kind of weird timer / rate chirp that I can't figure out to get rid of... though I can lessen it in certain situations. Which is kinda sad, because I want this thing to have a place on my live board. Hmmm, I say, hmmmmm...
I'm more like a mids-ist than a bassist.

Re: FLANGER? I hardly know 'er!
I once had the old 80's Boss Bass Flanger, did not like that one, really sucked, I lost it on tour and I did not cry..
Now I have a DOD Stereo Bass Flanger, can get pretty freaky with it's 4 knobs and the low end stays where it is!
I also have a Deluxe Electric Mistress, sounds cool and I love the filter matrix mode
Not that great on bass, but really nice on guitar..

I have the FX-75B, and I love it to death, except the bypass is absolutely awful.

If you're talking about the switch, yes that really sucks! But mine doesn't leak/suck tone as far as I hear.. But I have the FX-72..

Have owned Flanger Hoax and Arion Stereo Flanger.
Arion does some really cool stuff, traded the hoax.
I'd like to try some others out, though I really don't like the jet swoosh sound.

Re: FLANGER? I hardly know 'er!
I generally prefer a flanger because it gets way more intense than chorus barring the poly chorus, flanger hoax, sea machine, and cosmichorus.
