    Hey! I am thinking of buying a Flanger Hoax on a good deal. My concerns are :poke: : can it do relatively subtle modulation? I am worried about the lack of a depth knob. Also, does it do both small stone and electric mistress type of sounds? I know it won’t sound the same as either, but…

    Any help and advice is welcomed. Thanx very much!

    its a great pedal. it can do subtle modulation and i’m assuming it can do stuff similar to small stone and electric mistress sounds.

    I received my Flanger Hoax today. Unfortunately, it seems the shop I bought it from failed to send the power supply as well so for now i can’t use it or do anything :doh: . I hope the shop won’t make me any problems with sending me a power supply, and i also hope i won’t have to pay shippment for the power supply as well. Boooo! :facepalm: 😥

    that’s strange, the Ps should be in the original box with the pedal…

    They should send you the PS with no extra fee, it’s their mistake after all!

    good luck!

    I always thought “I am the only person that makes noise out off a russian Big Muff, a ceb-3 and a dod fx-72, and calls it ‘music'” haha. Nice clip man, right into my mp3 player : D

    Ps: I want a Flanger Hoax, but I don’t have enough money. Also I want tons of ehx pedals ‘n’ stuff, but again I can’t afford them :(.

    This is where all the settings are. It helps a lot at knowing the pedal.

    Here’s the setting I’m using now and it’s amazing with a Muff!

    ******************************************
    Chorus-like pseudo-Electric Mistress Flanger
    blend – 10:00-2:00 2:00
    feedback -10:00-12:00 12:00
    feedback switch – swept
    LIN
    mod mode -180 degrees
    amount – 10:00
    rate – 9:00-10:00 10:00
    delay mode -1
    invert switch – off
    fixed switch – bypass

    so glad someone is enjoying my favorite setting on the Flanger Hoax! I have some other ones I will be posting on the Flanger Hoax lounge soon…that blend knob is a very useful feature, you can have an insane modulation going on past 12:00 and back the blend knob off to say 10:00 and the sound is very subtle and “useful” in a more traditional application. PureTube, the designer of the Hoax, and many other pedals is a master of pedal magic!
    Also, be sure to check out Fender&EHX4ever;’s settings in the lounge as well, he is a maestro of EHX insanity!
    fixed delay – 3:00
    swept switch- swept
    swept delay -3:30
    ******************************************

    I’ve took it from someone on the thread link above.
    The value in bold are the one I use.

    I also found this in there, it’s very useful to note down your settings.

    I’m glad you like my clip.

    There’s actually a part 2 of that session that is even better IMO but it’s 26min so I couldn’t upload it without ruining the audio quality with extreme compression…i’ll see if there’s a way to upload it somewhere else than soundclip…

    You could still get a Small Clone or Stone for cheaper and have some space fx too…

    I’ve been trying many other settings…I now use the Chorus setting wich blend nicely with my guitar amps…you should ear the Delay bouncing from my right amp/cabinet…kind of stereo delay with some hoax…! As soon as I start playing my gig I just close my eyes and leave for another dimension…I can’t wait to replace my Boss DD-3 for a XO Deluxe Memory Man!!!

    Here’s part 2 and 3…I had to cut the 2nd part in half to upload them…

    turn off the lights, crank the volume and enjoy the trip…!

    I want one of these so bad!! Ive just got a polychorus though so im gona have to wait a while before I get one, It took me ages to decide which one I was going to get but I went for the poly just because my ibanez chorus was falling to bits. Do you think the flanger hoax will be discontinued soon? that would be just my luck!

    I bought a unit in special (199$CDN?) that was suppose to be the last at the shop but few weeks later, guess what? they have a brand new unit in the counter…

    I don’t know about the discontinued, it’s a well hided item so they’re should be some left for a while I guess.

    The Poly Chorus is a good quality Chorus! I might get one…later…!

    I hope it is! mine has yet to hit my door step, It was a tricky choice because I love them both, I play in a very loud band and I thought the poly would be able to give me the most extreme sounds quickly if you know what i mean! but I still look at the hoax and wonder if I made a good choice!! only time will tell I guess.

    yeah a lot of stores do that, with large specialty items like the FH they will only carry one at a time in there store, until it sells, then they will reorder a replacement.

    it also helps them to push the sale by being able to say “its the last one”

    also CHEV….i love the clips, reminds me of the background music in the Silent Hill games, ive always loved there soundtracks.

    dolphin.co.uk had the flanger hoax in b stock for 85 pound!!! But it had been an expensive month so I missed out on that!! I wonder if ehx would update the hoax into a smaller box, I love the old style pedals the best!
