Let’s push TimeLine‘s Dual Delay machine to the edge and get some flange tones going on! To get started, minimize the delay time by cranking it all the way back to 60ms. We can set the second delay to 1/8 of the original delay time, which would be 7.5ms. We’ve set the second delay Mix and Repeats to track with the first, and set up everything in a Series configuration.
With these low delay times, we can turn up the repeats a bit, and crank up the modulation, and now you can really start to hear the flange take shape. Play with the Repeat level, Mix, Modulation speed and depth to tailor the intensity of the flanging sound to your liking. Enjoy!

Excited to try the new setting! I love these new settings when they get released. I think Strymon either needs to get me a Mobius so I can use those settings or they need to focus specifically on the Timeline. Your move, Strymon.
