MXR M117R Flanger, Grey

Product Information

The only downside is that it might take some time to master all of its features, but it will be worth it once you do. The MXR Series 2000 sported six models. These original pedals in the series included the Dyna Comp, Distortion +, Phaser, Stereo Chorus, Stereo Flanger and Time Delay. In late 1983 MXR announced a digital sound effects pedal generator simply known as the Junior. The Junior was released in early 1984 and was added to the other six pedals in the Series 2000 line. The Junior boasted four sound effects: a laser, a clap, a snare and a high hat. The effects were samples stored on a replaceable 24-pin ROM chip that was produced by MXR. MXR continued to manufacture most of the Reference, Commande and 2000 Series pedals until they closed down in 1984. Powered by advanced Boss technology, the ultra-versatile MD-500 delivers 12 modulation pedal types and up to 297 assignable presets. This gives you 28 different algorithms with intensive programming parameters, offering a nearly limitless sound palette to create with.

It combines a traditional tape flange effect with modern TonePrint technology, which opens up a world of possibilities for customization. However, some users have reported issues with volume loss when used in the FX loop, and the product’s price may concern some buyers.

With accurate bypass technology, this pedal ensures a transparent tone, maintaining high-quality sound. One feature I particularly enjoyed was the ability to disengage the auto-sweep by setting the Width to zero.

It is also really easy to use, courtesy of its three straightforward knobs that allow you to adjust the Color, Range, and Rate of your flanging effect.

About MXR Pedals

The intuitive controls, Tap Tempo button, and expression pedal inputs make it easy to fine-tune your sound and create dynamic flanging effects that are perfectly in time with your music.

The first period is known as the "Script period," in reference to the cursive logo on the case. The earliest script logo pedals were made in the basement shop of the MXR founders [5] and the logos were silk screened. These very first pedals can be identified by a slightly larger font "MXR" on the case. The pedal offers 11 digital modulation effects, including chorus, vibrato, flanger, phaser, tremolo, univibe, auto-wah, and bit crush. In my experience with the Boss BF-3 Flanger Guitar Effects Pedal, it is a reliable and versatile addition to my gear collection.There’s something here for everyone with 11 different digital modulation effects, including chorus, vibrato, flanger, phaser, tremolo, univibe, auto-wah, and bit crush. Most users find it a great addition to their pedalboard and appreciate its versatility and build quality. We will detail each factor, helping you decide when to select the perfect flanger pedal for your needs. – Sound quality

In late 1981, MXR got the resale rights in the US to sell the KIT (M-178), a digital drum machine. In early 1983, MXR released the M-185 [1] MXR Drum Computer, similar to Roger Linn's Linn LM-1 drum machine with individual pads for the instrument sounds and individual volume controls for each sound. The pedal is a true bypass, which means that it won’t affect your guitar tone when switched off, and it has a solid metal housing with weighted knobs that are easy to read. Its variety of sounds is remarkable – from jet plane-like effects to cool spacey vibes, short delay, chorus, and vibrato.

About MXR

As a guitar enthusiast, I had the opportunity to try out the MXR Flanger Guitar Effects Pedal, and I must say that it lives up to its reputation. The Strymon Mobius Multidimensional Modulation Pedal is a versatile and powerful tool designed to meet a wide range of modulation needs for musicians. Effects: Chorus, Flanger, Rotary, Vibe, Phaser, Filter, Formant, Vintage Trem, Pattern Trem, Autoswell, Destroyer, Quadrature MXR distortion circuits are known for having an accentuated mid-range and certain fuzz-like qualities when pushed to the edge. The staple M104 Distortion+ will give you a surprisingly low-gain wooly quality, whereas the Super Badass distortions or Octave Fuzz pedals will cook your tones to new and ever-more dangerous temperatures! This pedal also comes with a footswitch for on/bypass operation, making it easy to toggle the effect on and off during performances.
