“Soundwise, this shimmering flanger has that grating tinge of metallic coldness that suits itself well to dark industrial music or bands who dole out noise in massive amounts. There is nothing soft and squishy about the sounds found here. It’s ultra-crisp and clear with a sinister bite that sounds absolutely amazing when paired with a wall of crunchy Marshalls.”
“Aside from all the typical flanger controls, the DFL adds a selectable mode switch to add some sort of a pre-delay which increases the width of the flanger. An usefull addition for squeezing even more demented tones from this puke green beast.”
“This somewhat rare pedal from Ibanez is from the mid 1980s. This pedal is extremely versatile and is simply one of the best flangers to use with distortion and/or overdrive. It does not drop the volume of your instrument when engaged like some of the newer flangers.”
“The Ibanez DFL is the first flanger to use digital processing. The exclusive IDPC (Ibanez Digital Processing Conversion) system permits wideband, brighter flanging effects previously available only with rackmount digital processors. The DFL also features an extra wide 8:1 sweep ratio for deeper, wide-ranging flanging effects.”
“The DELAY MODE switch selects one of three delay ranges while the DELAY TIME control adjusts the delay within each range. As a result, the flanging action is tunable over a wide range of intriguing flange sounds.”
“The DFL also features an extra wide 8:1 sweep ratio for deeper, wide-ranging flanging effects.”
