Add Unmistakable Bucket-Brigade Flanging and Delay from a ’70s Icon

The MXR Flanger/Doubler plug-in gives you the glorious sound of this analog modulation processor that adds unique movement and depth to any source. From whooshing flange effects to subtle filter and delay textures, the MXR Flanger/Doubler plug-in is officially licensed by Dunlop Manufacturing. We've expertly emulated the original hardware’s colorful, almost lo-fi-sounding “bucket-brigade” circuit, giving you everything from subtle thickening to whacked-out sci-fi effects, all with a unique texture and tone that has never been truly captured — until now.

What They Say

The MXR stuff is great, it's so basic with just a few of knobs and buttons, but the sound that comes out is so satisfying. This plug-in just sounds amazing.

Carl Glanville

U2, Billy Joel, Counting Crows

The MXR Flanger/Doubler plug-in is fantastic — just like the original, but with no background noise.

Mick Glossop

Frank Zappa, Van Morrison, UFO

The UAD MXR brought me right back to the 'analog delay' era — and now that you can use it in stereo is beyond fantastic!

    Cool Stuff

    Long time ago I wanted one of these when I got my first Tascam multi-track, but just couldn’t afford all the toys…..fast forward 40-50 years thanks Universal Audio. The plug-in sounds great works well and your software/hardware sure does make retirement a whole lot fun.

    Just sounds brilliant.

    Instantly sounds how you want a flanger to sound in my opinion. Most of the time I'll find a preset Im after and that's it, fits in with the track on how I want it. Done!
