| I do, but very subtle with the speed slow as well, you actually hardly notice it, sort gives chordal stuff a "breathing" sound. To much and the signal loses clarity. The steel to me is beautiful alone so I wouldn't add to much of anything to alter that |

To me, a small touch of flange sounds much nicer than a like amount of chorus. It's much more subtle. I have a couple of light flange settings, mixed with reverb, on my Lexicon.

| Does those give you a light metalic chorus tone? |

I would set my old stompbox MXR flanger so that the speed of the sweep was static(speed knob), but turn the manual and width knobs till the tonality of the flange shift was somewhat in key with what I was playing, then turn the regeneration about halfway up... no "whoosh" just a bitchen "honk" and crunchy rock tone....
ahhh but that was 20 years ago....[This message was edited by Dave Van Allen on 03 December 2004 at 07:52 AM.] |

I use a Boss stomp box flanger for organ effects. I keep the "whoosh" control off, turn the first two knobs wide open, then adjust the speed to your liking. I personally don't think they sound as good as the real thing, but I had a musician walk up to the bandstand one time and he wanted to know where my Leslie was. Maybe he had a tin ear?  |
