• A guitar effect that does not work like a wah pedal. It does, however, work as a continually variable delay pedal. The delay on a flanger is too short to hear as an echo and the rate of delay expands and contracts to set intervals during a set amount of time according to how the operator programs it.
    The effect is called flange because before the advent of flanger pedals, sound engineers and musicians would press the inside of the thumb (the flange) onto the tape reel to slow it down and speed it up to achieve the desired effect.

    and shifts it from Treble to Bass to Treble continusly - depending on how much or how long you play-. What the Wah does is that it changes the Bass to Treble -or vice versa, depending where your at- on the press of a pedal, and the flanger takes a little time.
