Akai Flanger is one of a new range of Custom Shop guitar effects pedals designed to deliver essential ammo for the modern guitarist's arsenal. Akai Flanger features true-bypass switching and Rate, Depth, Manual and Res control knobs. Analog Flanger is a great example of a classic sound improved and comes housed in a heavy-duty polished stainless-steel chassis.
At first glance Flanger looks a breeze but once explored reveals a perfect storm of sound. The Rate knob sets how often the oscillation effect waveform repeats as well as the resulting pitch and depth of the signal. Depth sets the intensity of the flange effect, ranging from a mellow stir to an intense swirling maelstrom. Manual and Res work in combination to both delay and increase the intensity of the overall effect.
In the right hands, Flanger unlocks a key to the instantly recognizable, cradle-rocking sound of 80’s hard rock. Akai Flanger comes powered by the included 9-volt battery or 9v DC adapter (sold separately).
