Source Audio SA240 One Series Mercury Flanger

Designed for electric guitar and electric bass players, the One Series Mercury Flanger from Source Audio is a pedal which offers classic and modern flanging effects alike. The pedal provides control over depth, speed, resonance, and delay, while a three-position toggle switch offers different modes. Classic gives you the dramatic effects of early flange pedals, while Thru-Zero approximates tape flange, pitting dry and modulated signal together, so they meet at an intersection point and give you that “twisting” sound often associated with flanging. Who knows what mode lies at the third position of this toggle switch? The shadow knows: Shadow mode provides a resonant and smooth timbre, facilitating the jet engine take-off sound people often want out of their flanger pedals.

Now, these are just the effects provided straight out of the box. Play around with the included Neuro Mobile App for iOS and Android, and you’ll be able to edit a whole host of parameters—some of which explore/exploit the inherent intersection between chorusing and flanging. In doing so, you can customize your own signature tones, and what's more, save them to different positions of the toggle switch. With connections for MIDI control, expression control, and Hot Hand control (in which you use a proprietary ring-like device to modulate effect-parameters straight from your picking hand), you can achieve even more real-time manipulation of flanging effects.
