Alesis PHLNGR (200X)

Alesis PHLNGR

Trend price : 30-50€

Phlng is pedal a stereo digital flange effect with a elementary command interface.

Overview
Main panel features 4 knobs and 6 buttons:
Terminal connectors:
- unbalanced stereo jack input
- unbalanced stereo jack output
- bypass pedalswitch
- trimmer level input
- 9 pins modlink connector digitally chains various effects from the series




Sound
all digital DSP working at 48 kHz at 24 bits resolution. The effects is outputs in 6 different manners:
- mono
- stereo
- sync left/ right direction
- contrary in opposite direction
- ASYNC is an asynchronous mode (direction L/R at random)
- through Zero simulates original natural tape flanging effect modulations)

Edit
unit is pretty intuitive with a few commands:
- CENTER sets the center of the LFO cycle for the flanging direction.
- DEPTH determines the amount of flanging depth, from full WET to DRY.
- RATE is the flanging (LFO) frequency or sets by dedicated tapping or synched to other Modfx (no external clock)
- REGEN increase the effect presence feeding the output back to input.

LFO
select switch changes the modulator behavior and the waveforms in 5 modes:
- TRIANGLE traditional waveform for up and down cycle
- HYPER TRI a kind of sawtooth waveforms modulator
- TRIGGERED the pedal has an envelope follower that tracks the input volume to trigger the cycle
- UNCERTAINLY alternates random waveforms
- PATTERN generates a single loop of 16 steps random pattern, a looped sample and hold
- RESET mode button retrigs the LFO from beginning or generates new patterns in PATTERN MODE

Review
OK: intuitive / many parameters
NOT : cold digital sound
"Fun, a lot of combinations twist your sound! the sound is pure digital breed... if you like it cold."

cool
