Thru Zero Flanger
A Flange effect using two delay lines (per stereo side) to emulate
the classic flange effect produced using two analog tape machines.
Because there are two delay lines in constant motion, the delay
time can fall through zero to become negative. This has a unique
sound that can’t be replicated with a standard, single-delay flanger.
A. Feedback
This is the amount of the flanger output added back
into the input to produce a deeper effect.
Range:
into the input to produce a deeper effect.
Range:
–100% to 0 to +100%
B. Manual Delay
This is the base delay time that is modulated by the
LFO to create the Flange effect. It determines the
frequencies of the notches and peaks.
Range:
LFO to create the Flange effect. It determines the
frequencies of the notches and peaks.
Range:
0 – 100%
C. LFO Rate
This is the rate of the Low Frequency Oscillator.
Range:
Range:
0.010Hz – 4.800Hz, or 1/16 (4
whole notes) to 16 (64
th
note) if Tempo Sync is
enabled
D. LFO Depth
This adjusts the magnitude of the LFO modulation.
When set to 0%, the LFO has no effect on the
notch frequencies.
Range:
When set to 0%, the LFO has no effect on the
notch frequencies.
Range:
0 – 100%
E. LFO Shape
This selects between the two LFO shapes.
Range:
Range:
sine wave, triangle wave
F. Tempo Sync
This selects whether the LFO rate is synchronized
to the Micron’s tempo. When “follow tempo” is
selected, the LFO Rate parameter is displayed as a
multiple of the Tempo.
Range:
to the Micron’s tempo. When “follow tempo” is
selected, the LFO Rate parameter is displayed as a
multiple of the Tempo.
Range:
fixed rate, follow tempo
