"Flanger" Natural Recordings by Native Speakers
A flanger is a sound effect device or plug-in used in audio production, particularly in music and film. It is designed to create a sweeping or whooshing sound by modulating the pitch or frequency of the audio signal. The flanger creates a sense of movement or delay by slightly detuning the signal and then returning it to its original pitch. This effect is often used to add texture, ambiance, or create a sense of space in audio recordings.
