Chorus/Flanger effect combines two popular delay-based effects.

The Chorus option simulates several voices or instruments played

at once by adding multiple short delays with a small amount of feedback.

The result is lush, rich sound. Use this effect to enhance vocal

tracks or add stereo spaciousness to mono audio. </p>

<p>The Flanger option creates a psychedelic,

phase‑shifted sound by mixing a varying, short delay with the original

signal. This effect was originally created by sending an identical

audio signal to two reel‑to‑reel tape recorders, and periodically

pressing the flange of one reel to slow it down. </p>
