MXR® FLANGER/DOUBLER

The MXR Flanger/Doubler recreates the original MXR rack unit in pedal form, authentically capturing classic all-analog flanger and doubler effects featured on hallmark recordings from the ’70s and ’80s. It’s designed for experimenters, offering the tools to blend and bend your signal into your own rich, multi-layered textures. Equipped with authentic bucket-brigade devices and the original control set, this pedal preserves a wide range of textures, letting you chase timeless tones or sculpt unique soundscapes that push boundaries and carve out new dimensions in your tonal universe.

SET THE MOTION

The MXR Flanger/Doubler is built around two distinct voices. The flanger effect produces sweeping jet-engine motion and metallic resonance, adding movement and drama to your tone. The doubler effect thickens up your signal with a slightly offset second track layer to create chorusing effects or even a short, tightly dialed slapback delay.

Use the Doubler button to choose between the two, and then use the Manual, Width, and Speed controls to shape the tone, range of motion, and sweep rate of the effect. Intensity is controlled by the Regen knob, which uses feedback to take the modulation from smooth, mellow coloration to aggressive, metallic resonance. Once you’ve dialed in your core sound, the Mix knob stands ready to blend your wet and dry signals to taste, from fully dry to fully wet.

LIGHT IT UP

Two LEDs on the upper face of the MXR Flanger/Doubler reflect your instantaneous delay time at any given moment, with rate, brightness, and left/right activity determined by your Speed, Width, and Manual settings. This allows you to make quick, confident changes on the fly when it’s too loud to rely on just your ear.

FLIP IT

Want to carve out new textures in your tone? Flip the Invert switch to reverse the wet signal’s polarity and discover everything from airy, hollow vocality to a bold low-mid punch.

BEYOND THE BOARD

The MXR Flanger/Doubler comes built for flexibility and seamless integration with a wide range of setups. CV In and Out jacks allow you to connect with synths, sequences, CV-capable expression pedals, and other external devices. The Line Level switch ensures optimal performance when working with hot signals.

SHAPE YOUR SOUNDSCAPE

Whether you’re chasing vintage swirl, thick studio-style doubling, or pushing the boundaries of modulated taste, the MXR Flanger/Doubler gives you the control to craft your own sounds. From shimmering high-headroom clarity to warm lo-fi grit, this revival of an all-time classic will unlock pulsing textures and bold tones on your terms.
