    I’m thinking about getting one, but I’m contemplating its practical use in a band situation. My band plays hard rock.

    What do you guys use it for? So far, I’ve heard it used well in situations where the guitarist is trying to add color to their cleans.

    If you want to name a song where it’s used well, either link the song, or at least name the song and artist.

    Lots of hard rockers use flangers — early Van Halen (And the Cradle Will Rock for one) and Dinosaur Jr as two disparate examples…
    Listen to Dio…I always think of Vivian Campbell doing that chug-chugga-chug-chugga CHUG! CHUG! 80s metal thing with a flanger sweeping over it — I hate it but lots of people seem to like it.

    Well, the DEM is a bit different than normal flangers.
