Flangers
A flanger is a modulated delay to emulate the sound created when running two analog tape machines in parallel with
a slight time disalignment. Slow Rate settings can produce a “whooshing” jet engine sound, while faster rates result
in more of a “warble.”

Chorus
A chorus effect uses an LFO to modulate the pitch and a delay of the input signal, which are then added to the dry
signal. In small amounts, this creates the illusion of multiple voices playing at once. Turn up the Feedback and
Depth for more pronounced “shimmering” and “watery” sounds.
