The Flanger FairlightFX
The Flanger has the following controls:
 Bypass: Toggles this plug-in on and off.
 Input mode: (Only visible when the Flanger is inserted on a multi-channel track.)
Letsyou choose how multiple channels are input to the Flanger. Stereo sets separate
Left and Right channels. Mono sums Left and Right to both channels. Left inputs the Left
channel only, and Right inputs the Right channel only.
 Modulation: A low frequency oscillator (LFO) used to drive the Flanger effect.
–
Waveform (Hz): Specifies the shape of the LFO that modulates the rate of the
Flanger. The three choices are Sine (a smooth change in rate), Triangle (a jerky
change in rate), and Sawtooth (an abrupt change in rage). Affects the timing of the
warble that is added to the sound.
–
Rate (%): Speed of the LFO, affects the speed of the warble that is added to
the sound. Low rate values create a slow warble, while high rate values create more
of a buzz.
–
Depth: Affects the “length” of the warble that is added to the sound. Low values add
only the very beginning of a warble, high values add more fully developed warble.
 Width: Consists of a single parameter, Expansion, which sets Left/Right channel length
differences, along with the phase offset of modulators.
 Feedback: These controls determine, in large part, how extreme the Flanging
effect will be.
–
Amount (%): The percentage of signal fed back to the Delay Line. Values can be
positive or negative, the default is 0 (no effect). Increasing this parameter adds
more of the Flange effect to the signal, lowering this parameter adds more of the
inverted Flange effect to the signal. At values closer to 0, only a faint phase shift
can be heard in the audio, but at values farther away from 0 (maxing at +/- 99), a
gradually increasing warble becomes audible. The type of warble depends on the
Modulation controls.
–
LPF Filter (Hz): Lets you filter the range of frequencies that will affect the
feedbacksignal.
