Description
Using the same algorithm as our Flanger plugin, this plug-in adds a unique feature to the original effect: you can smoothly transform it into a stereo flanging effect with a single slider. Push the 'stereo' slider of the user interface and hear the difference: the effect is turning around you head and the sound takes another dimension.
Simple yet powerful, this feature benefits from the Smooth Update mechanism, and thus does not introduce any 'plop' when you modify the parameters, on both DirectX and VST platforms.
Price: Freeware
Supported Platforms: Windows-VST / Windows-DirectX

- Real time stereo Flanger effect.

- Brand new skinnable Graphic User Interface using Blue Cat's skinning language v1.2.2.
- Advanced MIDI control with customizable parameters curve response and MIDI learn.
- All parameters can now be fine tuned thanks to a text-edit popup window that appears when double clicking on user interface widgets.
- Feedback and Feed forward parameters can now be negative for phase inversion.
- Precision of the gain control enhanced.
- User Manual accessible from plug-in UI.
- DX version: the factory presets are now available from the host standard presets view (for hosts that support static presets)
- Warning: because it now supports MIDI events, the DirectX plug-in may appear in the "Synth" or "DXi" category instead of "effects" in some hosts (such as Cakewalk Sonar).
If it does not appear in you host, you might want to use our DXi Manager to de-activate MIDI features.
- Warning: this new version breaks the presets compatibility, and is thus installed as a new plug-in. If you have a previous version installed and do not want to keep it, just uninstall it manually.
