Hello Gang,
Took a break from Scope Art to make and demonstrate these. They are Flanger/Phasers or what ever you want to call them. One uses very small degrees of pitch shifting and the other a few Hertz of frequency shift mixed with the original signal to create the effect. I also added a feedback path for a little more punch. Try it on some real music (Beatles, Stones, your favorite group) with headphones on and not just synth's ,drums, and etc from Fl Studio. I use Edison to load up my favorite song and then play it through the Phaser/Flanger . Sounds really spacey through headphones.

I would like some HELP though. The LFO could be a lot better. AT present I believe it sounds to swishy. Also any better ideas on the feedback are welcome. Any other ideas are also always welcome. If anyone would like to make it into a module and box it up with a coloured face plate and etc, that would be really be swell. Hint, hint, orange and blue are my favorite colours. I am NOT very good with packaging them up. I will get there but just to busy now to learn.

Thanks all and enjoy! All comments are always welcome.
Ok, back to Scope Art!
Later then,BobF.....

Pretty cool effect, I like the frequency shift one!
Please add a volume control and a clipper before the output, especially when you have uncontrolled feedback in your schematic. :)
You could improve Trog's pitch shifter by using triangles or sines instead of squares for crossfading.

Nice idea Bob! Some quite extreme effects possible with this also.

I always used to love the "phasing" sound from back in the sixties. Itchycoo Park et al.

Could I please suggest/request that your main module would be enclosed in a way that allows VST export? In this way it's much easier for me to try it in Reaper. I suspect this may not be needed in FL studio which is the DAW I think you use...?

Cheers

Spogg
