Extra Voice Effects - Flanger
“Flanging” occurs when two identical signals are mixed together, and one of the signals is time-delayed by a very
small amount. The small time delay produces peaks and valleys in the harmonic structure of the sound, resulting in a
sweeping effect sometimes referred to colloquially as a “Jet Airplane” sound.
The term, “Flanger” derives from the means originally used to produce this effect. Two tape machines turning at
exactly the same speed would play the same material into a third machine, and an engineer would drag his finger along
the flange or outer edge of the tape reel, thereby causing the small time delay and creating the sweeping effect.
