If it's not apparent by now, I'll let you fellow pedal nuts in on a little secret... Analog flanger is my all time favorite effect.  That being said though, I was trying to talk myself out of building this one.  I was more than satisfied with the 3 builds I already have in my inventory but, you good folks kept posting build reports on this circuit and kept drawing me back in  .  I'm so glad I said, "Screw it", and gave this flanger a chance.  It's absolutely glorious and my favorite build so far.  I'm a "all effects in front of a JCM 800" kinda guy and this is the perfect match to my amp.  Low noise floor and sounds phenomenal in front of distortion.  After seeing other build reports, I decided to install sockets in the C23 position and audition various caps.  I'm glad I did because it makes a big difference on your clock range.  I ended up using a 33pf with my final numbers being 35khz on the low end to 1.2mhz on the high end.  That's what sounded best to me.  Aesthetically, I went the cheap and easy route and just copied MXRs style.  I wanted to come up with something better but, due to work kicking my ass and barely anytime to work on personal projects, I just couldn't get inspired.  I just wanted to finish the circuit and spend time playing the damn thing, so I could forget about work life.  Anywho, enough of my personal B.S. and onto the pictures.

Thanks!  I love it!  My favorite flanger build thus far.

Really clean build, love it. This is sounding like a must build pedal at this point.

Killer build! Congrats. Flangers  are  my jam, too. 

This one sold me on 18V. It's just dead quiet, which as a fellow flanger nut you will recognize as something special.

Thanks!  I doubt you would be disappointed and if you're a fan of flanger then this build is a must.

Huge thanks and as a fan of your builds, this compliment means a lot!  You're absolutely right about the specialty of this circuit.  Flangers are just a noisy circuit in general and to find something such as this that doesn't produce that "waves crashing against a shore" hiss in front of distortion... glory, glory, hallelujah 😁🙏.

Love the graphics and neat as hell! Kudos to still doing your thing even when life's getting in the way, not easily done.

That's one hottie with a naughty body

That is a sexy build, I love the simplicity of the art.
