Flanger

Flanger is a modulation effect that creates a sweeping, jet-like sound by mixing the original signal with a slightly delayed copy that is continuously modulated. As the delay time changes, it produces a series of moving peaks and notches in the frequency response, giving the effect its distinctive whooshing character.

It is often used to add dramatic movement and texture to guitars, basses, and synthesizers, ranging from subtle shimmer to intense, psychedelic sweeps. Flanger is commonly associated with classic rock and experimental sounds, but it remains widely used wherever bold modulation and motion are wanted.

Phaser

Phaser is a modulation effect that creates a smooth, swirling sound by splitting the signal and shifting the phase of one path before mixing it back with the original. As the phase shift is modulated, it produces moving peaks and dips in the frequency response, giving the effect its characteristic sweep.

It is commonly used to add movement and texture to guitars, keyboards, and other instruments, ranging from subtle and warm to deep and psychedelic. Phaser effects are strongly associated with classic funk, rock, and 1970s tones, but remain widely used in modern music for their fluid, musical character.
