The Flat Light is a Textural Flange Shifter. Which is to say it’s a pedal meant to move and shift your sound around and it has some flangers inside. Let’s Explain It All:
A three mode switch selects between Detune, Resonate, and Echo modes.
The MIX knob controls the blend of wet (affected) and dry (unaffected) signal. 100% dry to the left, 100% wet to the right.
The RATE knob controls the rate of the flanger.
The DEPTH knob controls the intensity of the effect (depth in Detune and Resonate modes, Resonance in Echo mode).
The SHIFT knob controls:
- Pitch shift in Detune mode, from an octave down all the way left to an octave up and perfect fifth above that all the way right. Lightly to heavily detuned sounds are available in the middle of the sweep.
- Resonance in Resonate mode. This gives the signal some extra intense ringing sounds, with pitched resonance occurring at high settings.
- Delay time in Echo mode. All the way to the left eliminates the echo entirely.
BYPASS turns the pedal on and off using a soft-touch relay bypass.
TILT maximizes a control temporarily - either RATE or SHIFT depending on where the internal EXP switch is set. When the footswitch is pressed, the control is at max; when the footswitch is released, the control is where the knob or external expression is set.
EXP allows expression pedal input, to control the RATE or SHIFT knob externally.
The Flat Light runs on standard 9V DC center negative power.
