Classic Flange
Devices Used:
I'm using a fender mustang through a fender 25R.

Of all the different flange sounds from this pedal, this is my favorite, It's the classic "jet plane" sound. Make sure your battery is good, or the effect is not the same.
Settings:
Manual - max
Depth - 12 o'clock
Rate - not too fast, around 12 o'clock
Resonance - 12-2 o'clock
