MXR M226 Flanger/Doubler Pedal

The MXR M226 Flanger/Doubler brings the sound and functionality of the original MXR rackmount Flanger/Doubler into a pedalboard-friendly format. Its all-analog design recreates the flanging and doubling effects heard across recordings from the 1970s and '80s, with enough control to move from subtle modulation and added depth to dramatic jet-like sweeps and layered textures. 

Dedicated Flanger and Doubler operation significantly expands its range. Flanger mode covers metallic sweeps and classic whooshing modulation, while Doubler mode increases the delay time for sounds ranging from vibrato and chorus to slap-back delay and pitch-bent feedback. CV connectivity, wet-signal polarity inversion, and selectable instrument/line-level operation make the M226 equally useful with traditional guitar rigs, synthesizers, and more complex effect setups.
