JET

FLANGER

A jet sweeping through the middle

What it does

A jet sweeping through the middle: a short modulated delay with feedback. RATE and DEPTH set the sweep, FB sets how pronounced the comb is, and it goes negative for the hollow version.

FB at 0.8 is the jet; at 0.3 it is a gentle swirl
Slow RATE, 0.1 Hz, on a pad is movement you feel rather than hear

ON THE TOUCH PAD

As JET: X is RATE, Y is DEPTH. Touch to engage, lift to let go, HOLD to keep it.

Where it goes

PADSINSTRUMENTSCHANNELSBUSESMASTER

Four to a socket, in order: sound runs through the slots top to bottom. Open the box and every knob is in real units; BYPASS takes it out of the path without losing its settings; the presets are along the top; any knob learns a controller and gets an automation lane.

The knobs

The presets

7 IN THE BANK

Every box ships with a bank. AS SET is the knobs as you left them; the rest are starting points, each a sound someone wanted often enough to name. Star one and it sits at the front of the bank.

Preset	RATE	DEPTH	FB	MIX
JET	0.3 Hz	3 ms	0.6	0.5
SLOW	0.1 Hz	6 ms	0.4	0.5
WIDE	0.15 Hz	8 ms	0.3	0.5
NEGATIVE	0.3 Hz	3 ms	-0.7	0.5
FAST	2 Hz	2 ms	0.5	0.5
METALLIC	0.8 Hz	1 ms	0.85	0.6
THROUGH ZERO	0.05 Hz	10 ms	0.9	0.6

The console line

Every box is also a line of the console's language, so a pad or a patch can carry its effects in text. The words are the knobs:

fx flanger rate=0.3 depth=3 fb=0.5 mix=0.5
