Phaser VS Flanger 🧐

A phaser creates a sound that is full of movement and intensity, often evoking a feeling of the signal being sent to space, orbiting around some imaginary planet trapped inside the device and returning to the listener at a customizable BPM. It achieves this by using an all-pass filter that copies and moves a specific frequency range 90 degrees out of phase before combining it back with the original signal.

Flangers, on the other hand, use modulation tricks to move time in and out of phase via a fractionally delayed signal blending with the original. Both effects use LFOs for customization.

I thought a flanger was a phaser with an lfo modulating the phase, but I always get these two confused
