MXR® Flanger/Doubler
-
Unmistakable “bucket-brigade” flanging and delay from an iconic ’70s unit.
The MXR Flanger/Doubler plug-in for UAD-2 hardware and Apollo interfaces is an exacting emulation of the stony ’70s 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.
By expertly emulating the original hardware’s colorful, almost lo-fi-sounding “bucket-brigade” circuit, the MXR Flanger/Doubler plug-in offers 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.Now You Can:
Add lush flanging and short delay textures to instruments and vocals with the legendary “bucket-brigade” processor
Use the plug-in-only Sync button to lock the MXR Flanger/Doubler’s filter sweep to your session’s tempo
Thicken guitars, drums, and synths with Doubler mode
Bring movement, width, and complexity to stereo buses

“I sold mine in the 80s. Now with the plug-in, I have it again...The MXR plug-in sounds just like I remember!”
– Vance Powell (Jack White, The Dead Weather, The Raconteurs)
“I just used the UAD MXR Flanger/Doubler on a vocal, it sounded great… actually maybe a bit crispier than the one I remembered using... but that's a good thing.”
– Michael Brauer (The Rolling Stones, Coldplay, My Morning Jacket)
“The UAD MXR brought me right back to the 'analog delay' era — and now that you can use it in stereo is beyond fantastic!”
– Chuck Zwicky (Prince, Soul Asylum, Reggie Watts)
“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 UAD MXR Flanger/Doubler is great. It has the beautiful deep sweep of the hardware unit, without all of the old -10dB interfacing issues.”
– Mike Poole (Robert Plant, Martina McBride, Buddy Miller)Customer Reviews

I used to have one of these hardware units back in the day. I always thought they worked well in many situations. There have been many times I wished I still had it when mixing. Now I do...

This is a device that's easily overlooked by many. But I think it's a really great processor to add texture (in parallel) to many a sound. I use it a lot when distortion isn't producing the...

Great emulation
I used to have one of these hardware units back in the day. I always thought they worked well in many situations. There have been many times I wished I still had it when mixing. Now I do again. I would have given it 5 starts but a welcome feature would be the ability to control the actual delay time between the processed and unprocessed sound. Still a wlecome addition to the arsenal.

Such rich textures.
This is a device that's easily overlooked by many. But I think it's a really great processor to add texture (in parallel) to many a sound. I use it a lot when distortion isn't producing the right kind of harmonics or adds too much grit or bite. Experimentation is key here, but it almost always delivers useful and very 'different' results.

Its not just another MXR effect
i had good excpections when i purchased this MXR plugin, i had every MXR pedal i could get my hands on as a kid i thought i new what this MXR was going to do for me, until i used for the first tme . Its not just a flanger / double. its an Image creator. A space Maker, its the modulation thats going fatten and glue a bass to a mix with your drums, its going to create space for your electrics and acoustics , its not only going to double your track the image it creates widens the stereo field so much you actually consider not recording the additional track. this plugin will surprise you , so your imagination try it in situations and on instruments out of your norm you will be glad u did.

Super Smooth Flange
Compared to many other flangers and phasers this one is exceptionally good. Other flangers often have many setting for modulation, number of nodes, etc, but they often end up have non-musical characteristics and getting something that works in a mix often seems like a compromise. The MXR is very flexible without a bunch of unnecessary features. In particular, it works incredibly well to smooth out a harsh lead guitar, or to thicken up and add some depth to a clean guitar. Definitely a unique and very useful addition to my mixing toolbox.

Corrupts Delay Compensation in PT
Consistently corrupts the delay compensation in my PT sessions. Pretty disappointed in UAD's lack of resolution to this issue after all of the money I've invested into using their hardware and software.

Utmost Respect and Congratulations for this once again close to perfection Product. It helps me to carry on trying to get the most extreme sparkles of frequencies and sounds to perform a music which can be made as well either within or beyond the Industry’s boundaries and standards at the fraction of the genuine original price. THXVM once again!!! KR2EV1 N

Better than the original
Over time I tested all possible software flangers. Nothing come close. Software emulation is brilliant but also with an impressive musical feel. Congrats for the engineers! This tool can be used in countless mixing situations. And remember, you do not have to fight with the background noise of the original hardware. The analog feel is smooth. Also, no frequencies to disturb your ears. So, in my opinion, is better than the original (I had the original many years).
