Elektra Amanto: Classic BBD Flanger
Visit our Store to purchase.
The Elektra Amanto is a wide sweep, bucket brigade delay (BBD) flanger inspired by the vintage “V2” Electric Mistress Flanger.
It delivers classic flanger 70’s tones you’ve heard from players like Andy Summers and David Gilmour but with true bypass switching, reduced noise and no volume drop. Unlike other designs which require higher voltages (sometimes as high as 18 volts), the Elektra Amanto is powered by a standard 9 volt pedal power supply.
Elektra Amanto sweeps away all the bad stuff and delivers vintage flanger liquidy goodness.
Features:
True bypass switching
High quality switches, jacks and potentiometers
Powered by external 9V PSU input
Bi-colour LED indicator shows the sweep rate of the LFO
Rugged 1590B aluminum enclosure
Controls:
Rate: controls the sweep speed of the flanger (with the Matrix - Flange switch in the Flange position). It adjusts from super slow to crazy warble.
Range: adjusts the range of the flanger sweep. Adjusting Range clockwise makes the flanger sweep down to lower frequencies.
Colour: controls the feedback of the flanger. Higher Colour settings enhance the flanging effect and delivers more swoosh!
Matrix - Flange switch: A two-position switch that controls whether the low frequency oscillator (LFO) sweeps or not. In Matrix mode, the Rate control is disabled and adjusting the Range control changes the notch frequencies of a comb filter.
The Elektra Amanto has been carefully tuned to deliver vintage wide sweep flanging with controls that allow you to take it just over the edge into the flanging abyss.
Available as a fully assembled pedal. Contact us if you’re interested in a PCB or parts kit.
