Instant Flanger mkII

Classic Flanging for a Modern Mix

The Instant Flanger Mk II brings the great sound of vintage tape flanging to your plug-in toolbox. An authentic emulation of the original 1975 studio rackmount, the Instant Flanger was famously used on David Bowie’s “Ashes to Ashes” and Cyndi Lauper’s “Time After Time.” A truly versatile tool, engineers and producers have used it for stereo sweetening, subtle modulations, double tracking, and extreme flanging effects.

Features

• Depth controls the intensity of the effect. 100% adds the delayed signal to the dry signal. -100 % subtracts the dry signal from the delayed signal
• Three distinct flavors of flanging. Set the Mode switch for Shallow, Deep or Wide
• Manual control allows you to control the ‘comb’ effect by turning the Big Knob
• Oscillator drives the flanging at a user defined rate
• Envelope Follower drives the flanging based on the signal’s amplitude
• Remote maps the flanging control to a mod wheel for tactile manipulation
• Bounce mimics the distinctive effect of the tape machine’s capstan motor “hunting” for its proper speed when the engineer’s thumb was lifted from the tape reel flange
• “Side Chain” allows for triggering the Envelope Follower from any source in the mix for inter-track mingling
• Exercise total control of the Oscillator with Sync and Retrig
• Tame the intensity by removing low frequencies from the flanged signal with the Low Cut control
