I still have and use my original Flanger pedal from 1978, even though I own a room full of ADA Rack processors that can produce the Flanging effect. The pedal is the quietest Flanger I have ever used and the biggest issue I've ever had with it was this: I wouldn't know if the effect was on until I played my guitar!
My only suggestion for the new pedal, if it's just as quiet, would be to add an LED indicator for the pedal status.
I still consider the old Flanger pedal to be the best one ever made! ![:thumb-up:](https://adadepot.com/Smileys/default/thumb.gif)

Hey Harley,
Thank you for the kind words! The new PBF Flanger is quieter than the original and it HAS a status indicator! See more info here: http://adaamps.com/store/products/modulation.html
Hey ADA Amplification,
Quieter?!?

My old original pedal is dead silent already, and a lot of studio engineers have offered to buy it from me in the past, but I wouldn't sell it. The Flanger is an effect I like to use with my leads along with some delay echoes to add a dimension moving space to the notes. The Flanger adds a swirling dimension to the echoes when I add it lightly.
Of course I'll definitely have to get the new PBF Flanger, (As if I didn't already own enough ADA gear), just because of the size and quality of the effect itself! It'll come in handy for a suitcase pedal rig where racks just aren't an option.
***Just an application tip for the Flanger: I like to place mine in front of the Wah pedal rather than after it. Not the usual effect chain setup, I know. Then again, on the Flanger, I set my Harmonics to "Odd" because I'm a bit odd anyway

( I'm going to have to get some new pics of My ADA gear to post here since the Old Depot pics are lost. Gotta get a better camera)
