I got this last Christmas and I can still say I don’t know how to use it. However, I can still coax some wild sounds out of it. I was even able to get an auto-wah sound from it, amongst the sounds you listed. It could benefit from a better manual, though.
I have worked a lot with the Flanger Hoax since it was a prototype until now. It is truly one of the most exciting modulation instruments ever built. I programmed synthesis for virtually every keyboard company, as am independent programmer, from the early 80’s until the early 2000’s. The approach that you have to take with the Flanger Hoax is very similar. Not is synthesis but in how relevant paramiters interact to create the summed sound. It is definitely not a box that you open and then run with it. You have to invest time and you definitely have to write each program down because a minor error in setup can take you to a whole new planet OR another great sound. You invest some time and you will be rewarded big time.
You just need to learn the interaction. I will try to find some of my old program sheets and put them up but give me a little time because my studio has changed. I use it for one shot sound design in film noow. I tend to never save sounds once I am certain I will not need it any further.
What a creative tool for anyone interested in unique, musical and colorful modulations. My sonic favorite here and I love almost all of our designs. The sonic potential never gets old and that means a lot when you do not want to follow the same old crowd.
