Description

Back in all its original, analog glory, the MXR Flanger/Doubler is a welcomed revival of the timeless MXR rackmount unit. The MXR Flanger/Doubler, found on countless recordings of the 1970s and 1980s with its patented multi-layering textures, lives again with today's MXR Flanger/Doubler pedal, packing the true analog experience of the studio effect into a compact stompbox raring for the stage.

Way back when, rackmount units were the name of the game for standalone effects units. All these years later, we've moved plenty of effects to more pedalboard-ready forms – but haven't lost our love for many of our favorite effects' precursors. The MXR Flanger/Doubler recreates the experience of MXR's original Flanger/Doubler rackmount through true bucket brigade design and its original set of controls. Blissfully straightforward and lovingly vintage-coded, the MXR Flanger/Doubler faithfully summons analog flanger and chorus tones just like your favorite artists used to make.

The MXR Flanger/Doubler's authentic bucket brigade design breathes character and life throughout. Unique controls offer avenues for subtle flange coloring and animation all the way to metallic resonations and jet-engine-style billows. Dedicated controls for effect mix align with push-button flange doubling and wet signal polarity inversion controls that expand the palette of tones exponentially – with that all-important bucket brigade charm and character at every step.

Further, control voltage (CV) expression connections open up external control opportunities for use with synthesizers, sequencers, and control voltage-capable expression pedals. A dedicated switch swaps the pedal's input gain level to best fit instrument or line-level signals.

A classic effect of a diamond-studded era of pop music, MXR's Flanger/Doubler doubles down on timeless modulated textures.
