How do you say flanger?

[Woodinblack]

Although a heavy flanger timed with the bar does sound pretty good - like the guitar in van halens 'Cradle will rock'

Flanging is also a lot more forgiving about the sweep time not being directly related to the tempo, whereas phasing nearly always sounds wrong unless it is synchronised to the tempo ideally with the high and low points of the sweep being at the start of a bar.

 

Nah - that's exactly why phasers are so good.

I also like headless basses, prog and "too many strings" and will happily play Jean-Michel Jarre, Gojira and Barbara Thompson's Paraphernalia on the same playlist 🤷🏻.

I love Jarre. Have done since I was a kid and into keyboard playing. I finally got round to seeing him live at the O2 for his 10.10.10 concert. That'll stay with me for a long time.

Mostly unambiguous, but should it be Go Jira or Jo Jira? 😁

I pronounce it 'Flanger' - never heard it pronounced 'Flanger' before.

[paul_5]

I don't pronounce it 'flanger' either, makes me sound like a bit of a twit.

 

I prefer phasers though, so it's not a word I use often.
