A two minute demo of four different settings on the MXR EVH-117 flanger pedal. This pedal is identical to the MXR-117R pedal except for the paint and the EVH button, which locks the pedal into "Unchained" setting mode, regardless of where the knobs are. Thick is the word I'd use to describe the sound. This flanger has a thicker and more pronounced envelope to it than the FL-9 I reviewed a few weeks ago. Although it can be dialed back to a subtle warble, you still can't help but hear the jet engine noise as the mod shifts back and forth.
Lastly, I apologize for the terrible audio quality. I ordered a better recorder, but it got put on backorder, and I don't know when I'm going to get time to record demos in the next few weeks anyway. I hope you enjoy this shorter than normal pedal demo.
So the EVH button is just a preset?

@okamasphere Yup. With the button down, the settings get locked into a "signature" sound, and the knobs stop doing anything.

the evh flanger is the only flang peddal i need.

@bluehappyscrap It is an excellent pedal. The sounds is awesome, but probably most importantly, the added headroom from running at 18v lets you use a booster or overdrive pedal in front of it without it clipping. Same goes for the MXR Stereo Chorus.

great pedal.

@bluehappyscrap It is. Makes me wish I had more flanging needs, or else it'd always be on my board.
