ANALOG vintage arpond I think the question

USE

YES it is a flanger not dash of AIRBUS

SOUND QUALITY

So the effects are not magic GPs !!!
heat velvet sound magic alone flanger I found warm sound
great with a guitar how one can not put a canvas such an effect Mr Manuk not confuse an effect not suited its needs and a bad effect !!! It's like I took it a vintage burgundy to make a moog perceived to illuminate a stadium !!!
go! a canvas for LED moog but then it's really shit !!! the Electric Mistress is a REFERENCE !!! we like it or not you need it or not ... need not overlooking your bass? ok say it in a forum! But when we do not know we do not give an opinion on audiofanzine!

NOTICE GLOBAL

always! I tried everything it is that which has the most personality breath included!
the price? ha c'tait cheaper when n'tait more fashionable but still worth its taken the darn !!!

analog flanger
24 V power supply provided

UTILIZATION

fairly simple

SOUND QUALITY

I only tested on low and I found it pretty mediocre, he eats very little serious not add a lot of background noise especially with high color
the effect is quite small in comparison with the BF-2B and an old boss Ross R-60. modulation applies to higher frequencies and not serious as the two aforementioned models. I have not found all the Ross sound palette that gives more in severe and goes away with resonance. filter matrix effect is not bad but I'm getting there with the boss with the spleen minimum.La modulation is shallower and warmer than on ross R-60, however, the rate can go faster but I do not have too much use ... So very disappointed and returned to the store within 24 hours ...

OVERALL OPINION

I tested an hour compared to my two favorite Flanger Boss BF_2B and Ross R-60.Malgré what I've read, I do not find it at all adapted to low, if you are bassist go your way, there are better and cheaper OCCAZ (Boss BF-2B). My opinion does not apply of course to the bottom, I do not judge the guitar for which he is certainly looking magnifique.Je a replacement for my old R-60, we will have to look elsewhere ...

Mine is Made in America, and green as in the photo.
Flanger fall to the ground but not convinced by the MATRIX effect, never used in 25 years.

UTILIZATION

Easy configuration for analog color, range, rate <=> intensitbalayage / speed.
outputs Wet / Dry.
Many possibilities, but as prcedemment said, because "Filter Matrix" trs quickly forgotten because without intrt, I think ..

SOUND QUALITY

The effect is more than helpful and takes us back in a few DCEN rear. I play the soldering iron to hold it in the state, so average reliability, but Status Quo / Whatever you want, and many others are you with the pedals

OVERALL OPINION

I did not intend to sell it, despite its reliability dlicate. A Must Have for me.

Analog Flanger
Between output and Direct out (why? Should I try)
24v power supply (transformer provided)
knobs: color, range and rate
Switch to switch the filter matrix flanger
No led to indicate if the pedals is active or not against

A "big" problem: the size of this gear 20cm x 18 cm, in other words has this effect alone will take 3 / 4 of the space on your pedal board. (I would almost MXR Phaser piti a cot)

Construction of aluminum sheet folded looking strong while remaining light enough

Delivered in an attractive wooden box, there's even a lead crimped to show that the box was never opened t, ca pte

UTILIZATION

Good use is an AC effect pedals not necessarily need a manual, besides a share misrable a small green leaf A5 format to explain the function Filter Matrix, not yen.
Will just not be too deaf to see if it is not AC Inrush by top against the lack of LED operation
Bigniou and size of which can be a problem for some.

Otherwise the big knobs, even if they are not hyper esttiquement design, are of quality as all the pedals

SOUND QUALITY

Ah we enter the purely subjective.

I love the sounds I get from this machine

It is a fact that has a real personality of those who put plutt upstream of pramp to invade that they sound too gnral, an effect so he could typ not appeal to everyone.
But hey what about the other TElement I like that I am obliged to put 10

An example is the flanger sound you can hear on some songs and albums Icon Paradise Lost Draconian Times

OVERALL OPINION

It's been a while since I felt like the flanger, and I finally made the leap, I do not regret it.
I like the sounds (the imports), minus the size of the craft and the lack of an LED operation, but hey you will with it.
The average price of 150 as it really is a purpose for those who really DSIR, not a fact that on the spur of achte head (even if I admit that a ca t just my case), otherwise to have surprises.

- Analog Flanger
- 1 input / 2 outputs (one that I gain nothing "live out")
- A filter matrix
- 3 color knobs / range / rate and a footswitch on / off

My pedal is an original model (black and green) dated by the factory of the early 70 ... Unfortunately, it currently suffers from a mysterious failure (large hum appearing out of control ... sniff) it is indeed very big!

UTILIZATION

Could not be more simple! you plug it sounds, turn the knobs (even with the foot because of their size) so hyper intuitive and it always sounds RAS!

SOUND QUALITY

It is THE ultimate Flanger! nothing to say ... I use it the same way I would use either a chorus with a soft setting to add a background color to be more stuff to psyche ... the sound is super clear in on the other hand as distortion is a bit noisy (analog ... and mine is very noisy because of his problem)

The filter matrix is ​​a frequency filter that softens somewhat the effect ... honestly it does not detract from the quality of the machine ... but it did not add much either

OVERALL OPINION

I have 5 years and I can not complain since I gave it! Unfortunately I do not use too much longer now (I think you understand why) and suddenly I realize how much I miss her! it has become an indispensable part of my set-up ... what sound!

DELUXE ELECTRIC MISTRESS Flanger MONO home electro-harmonix.
analog effects pedal 1 input, 2 outputs (one direct and one flangée), 3 knobs: color (color of his flanger), range (depth); rate (speed oscillator).
true bypass switch and foot switch 2 position for the simple filter matrix (disables the RATE and allows you to keep the color and depth of sound without turning flanger effect (this gives a kind of reverb))
metal box super strong, direct supply 24 volts (no possibility of a battery, but power is very quiet, hardly any noise currents !!!!!!!).
Supplied adapter, I put 9 because I loved a stereo output.

UTILIZATION

To use a kid of 5 years it would come out, it's super simple to configure analog. The knob is very sensitive to rate knob unlike the range of that nAdd little depth to the sound lorsquon pushes a bottom.
The filter matrix is ​​slightly useless because the system does not switch to the foot. For me, the matrix is ​​used to filter the type having a pre-colored by the pedal, pedal vintage way with bipolar switch (the true bypass, pole, is a switch making sure that the pedal is completely disabled, so that it can color the sound)
Short mode filter matrix was interresting with a foot switch, but I think I'm going to ask one.
Line DIRECTEcomme the name suggests is an independent non-related output has the effect of the pedal. flangée output is the output with the effect;
I connect this amp pedal on two different spells on the bottom a flanger on the other, the clear sound of my guitar. I think it gives a powerful effect, it prevents your flanger does not break you of Rhythmic Thurs it's as if there were two guitars playing together, one light and one with the effect and it makes very cool.

SOUND QUALITY

WOW! I think I found the ultimate Flanger!
a very good color (very strange because it seems a sort of mixture of liquid and a flanger electrical short, it's very good!), the Rhythmic is restored and the sound frequency spectra are new.
I use a 120 watt frontman 212R and a jaguar HH serious and it rocks.
to give you an idea of ​​her, Listen to "Heroin" by Lou Reed on ROCK AND ROLL ANIMAL "THIRD UNCLE" BAUHAUS, or the song "SIXTEEN" Live from the album IGGY POP NUGGETS scarcity (or go simply on www.EHX.com (http://www.EHX.com), electro harmonix site with lots of sample !!!).
I tried also on a personal low (a whale with a p-micro seimour duncan bass) and it makes too well despite the poor quality of the guitar. the bass are returned, and being a fan of THE CURE and bass Simon Gallup staggering I just tell you that you will have a low sound of cure with the pedal (even if the cure is using the flanger boss said to be very Excellent for cold, but the bass) Just set the color properly and that's it.

OVERALL OPINION

Well, it's the bomb.
must-have for fans of the hot vintage.
The only drawback is labsence LED to see if the effect is connected but is good for the ears ca lol.dommage also the absence of the foot switch for the filter matrix.
I tried the boss flanger before this one and I was too cold for my taste.
In any case I will not buy other flanger for a while, because for me it is purely genial.Et then it looks terrible.
The price, therefore, is 200 euros but the AC is without problems.
It is clear that I do it again this choice without problems!

The one is right in the analog case mtal, 3 large knobs (color, range and rate), one between two outputs, a switch matrix for Inrush the filter, and a foot switch to initiate the effect.
Big advantage, the pedals can be connected directly to the mains.
There's more that connect.

UTILIZATION

Nothing is easier to use, I have no instructions with it, but it is easy to find the sound that goes well.
The only thing is that teachers are no LED to see if the effect is active or blow can be Gnant in concert, which is not my case but I will find a way to install one. It's more convenient.

SOUND QUALITY

In terms of sound against the top is dlicieux, natural and warm. When you love the analog sound is the top. It is easy to find rglages, for my part is all in the middle that was best for me.
Clearly as the crunch effect is saturated or both Submitted and discreet and gives a beautiful color.
Well, a breath a little, but it is analog.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it recently, I wanted one, and I do not regret it. This is an opportunity, it has a few hours, but the sound is is for me the flanger.
The price is trs reasonable opportunity just be patient.
I would do this choice without a shadow of a hsitation.

This is a flanger. No, it's THE flanger.
Analog, they are bagpipes which date back to the 70/80.
Editable? Yes with buttons.
It is a PDAL, not rack.

UTILIZATION

I aps manual, no need, turn the knobs.
The edition of her is easy.
It's a good old pedals for guitarists who have less neurons than fingers!

SOUND QUALITY

The sound of the flanger is really old school. This is not the coldness of flanger Cure (prfrez an ibanez or at worst a boss for this type of sound). This is a flanger fat. Mine are tun little "dirty" she drools a little when typing large bass or agreements flange deep, but it's really happy. It uses the flange Hendrix.
You have to love ... I love it.

OVERALL OPINION

I have since ... Long!
The best: simple, probably in strong. Adaptor with a catch, but that does not intgre.
The least: She drools a little dan the bass, but it is not done to be played with a bass.
Report quality price: difficult to say, this vintage is no longer sold. I'd say it's a matter of taste. L'argus me parat not too expensive, because it is a collector's item, trs endearing.
I would do this election ... if I n'tais not so broke.

Flanger / filter matrix. Using the matrix filter seems pretty anecdotal, but the flanger ... !
entièrment analog pedal, and "true bypass" when off.
Note max, knowing what you want. (Obviously not programmable, but given the type of object, I would not account for the note)

UTILIZATION

Pretty simple to use. There is one thing that gives excellent results:
Put the two settings "range" and "color" to zero, and use the setting "rate" only.
to 09h. : Fine, not too strong, but super wide ...
to 12. : Standard ... if you add color and range, the same level (knob at noon) is the flanger type, so "before going into the intricacies, dear students, here is the type of flanger")
to 15h. : Almost a vibrato, then, must be adjusted, it is played with a few millimeters to be perceived as great or else frankly unusable ...

SOUND QUALITY

Efficient, beautiful (it sounds cutesy words like that, but it is also a part of the goal, right?)
with guitar great (Time, on the dark side of the Moon Pink Floyd, if he has not done with it, bin it with a copy of this ...)
on keyboards: can advantageously replace nick leslie effects of integrated current machines. organ sounds on the go "dry" through this thing in llive is quite efficient. And it remains intelligible.
Oh sorry, just to get an idea. config I use: Gibson Howard Roberts, peavey classic 30 fitted with Celestion Vintage 30. Effects: Maxon OD9 it flangeEH intelliphase-Akai-delay MXR Carbon Copy.

OVERALL OPINION

Well, I explain why I put around 10 (I know, this may not really be objective, this paper). then here: I had made up his mind to move to multi-purpose. And I tried, multi-effects. Boss, Roland, Vox, Digitech, Line6, and without it being bad, every time the same scenario: some awesome presets, then after, we want to do it yourself, to find sounds or sensations that obtained with analog pedals .. and niet! Paskeu I do not know how? Paskeu is not possible, said in an outburst of honesty the man the store.
He sums up: lots of sounds: multi FX. The sound, keep your pedals!
- Used for 2 years
- The +: the sound. and respect for the signal when not in use. And the Son.
- The -: it is ... big. not cool, when we talk pedal to organize.
- Yes, some are good too, but still analog. And I swear it's not nostalgia, it's listening.
- Q / P: expensive for a single purpose. But really cheap, if it solves the problem once and for all ...
- Not necessarily, but nothing to do with the quality of the effect. it's just that I spend a period of "down with FX Modulation, long live the direct sound." As a result, flangers, phasers and other chorus, boaâfff ...
In short: it sounds. And all the gadgets are useless if it lacks this aspect.

PS: Personal opinion and bias, assumed. if you disagree, that's all OK.

Analog Flanger with color as a parameter (a kind of filter or equalizer for the brightness of the sound), to set the frequency range starting rate for the flanger and the scanning speed of the frequency of the flanger.

The pedal also has a filter matrix which can freeze the flanger and the work manually.

The only thing missing is a small LED indicating whether effect is activated or not.

UTILIZATION

The use of this pedal is very simple. Three knobs, each with its own function and PI's it!
Must not be removed from Saint-Cyr!

SOUND QUALITY

Personally, I find the sound very good because on the one hand, the input signal is respected, not as Polychorus ..., and also the effect is truly magnificent.
Even if the pedal has only three parameters, it is possible to make a light and discreet flanger flanger to a super sound caused twisting (color and range in depth and slow rate).
Put this flanger and a relatively short time on a drum machine is very effective ...
I put 9 in order not to 10 ....

OVERALL OPINION

I love this pedal (pretty impressive in view of the number of knobs ...), the sound it delivers is enormous. I am very satisfied.
I have owned the Polychorus (very nice) and I was quite disappointed because non-transparent and flanger pretty average, but that's a matter of taste ....

That's it I, green and black, perhaps the first, at the time it threw out this big box style panzer ..... Purchased in the late 70's by my wife for her analog keyboard. Used by myself with my guitar.
That the old, so, ah ah!
Apparently the much sought after analog flanger to the coast to the Argus. I do not really remember most of the original price was just not in euros, that I still remember it!
a good point: the power supply, thus avoiding to buy a transformer, we see more things these days my dear lady!
9, because the live analog!

UTILIZATION

The manual is long gone, but good as any analog pedal, no need to read .....
9, because there's nothing else to say!

SOUND QUALITY

Then there ....... It's really great on the water of an old Korg analog, but now it's all integrated as I do not see the point would have a keyboard player to acquire the object.
For the guitar is a bit frustrating, and I must say that it is used sparingly: very well when playing arpeggios of prog 'style of early Genesis, or the rhythmic sound clear. This is complicated a little solo, one is quickly in his Van Halen, there's no doubt, but get tired quickly, because it stains very metallic sound wave is not easy to master. I use the three knobs stuck on 13.00 for me is the best sound. Previous position on the effect is not very clear and then you come by against a soon to her aquatic style Flipper!

OVERALL OPINION

A good old pedal reputation and very strong. Certainly not essential, any more than a phasing-but interesting all the same with this unique sound. Use it wisely and sparingly on pain of tired and the bublic .... yourself!
9, because it's emotional last 30 years we are together!

The Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Electric Mistress is a stereo flanger and filter matrix pedal designed for use with electric guitar.  The pedal is an analog one that is powered by the special Electro Harmonix power supply that comes with it.  It has 1/4 inch connections for input, effect out and clean output.  There is also a switch next to the connections regarding the filter matrix will add some pretty awesome filtering effects to your sound.  It isn't a rackable piece of gear as it is a stomp box. 


UTILIZATION

Using the Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Electric Mistress is quite easy as it only has three parameters - one for color, one for range, and one for rate.  Even though there are a limited number of parameters, since they are all such extreme parameters you can still get a huge variety of tones from this pedal and when you add in the filter matrix it takes this to a new level.  I never had any problems getting this pedal to do what I wanted it to do and for this reason I never had a need to look at a manual.


SOUND QUALITY

This is definitely one of the better sounding flanger pedals that I have used for a number of reasons.  The first reason is that all of the sounds that you get with this pedal are extremely organic and 'analog' sounding.  The next reason is that it is diverse and you can get all sorts of cool sounds - sometimes I'll get a tone that I didn't even know it was capable of!  I use this pedal for recording usually with a Fender Strat and a '76 Fender Twin Reverb or Fender Deluxe Reverb and I'm always happy with the flanging and filter tones I get. 


OVERALL OPINION

For a variety of reasons I would definitely recommend the Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Electric Mistress if you are looking for an awesome flanger pedal.  While this isn't as cheap as the Boss flanger pedals, it will sounds better and is capable of more variety in terms of tone.  The price isn't even all that expensive for an Electro Harmonix pedal of this nature.  This is definitely one of my favorite flanger pedals that is currently on the market.
