H13
Inspired
So this thought is influenced by the massive flu that I currently have and the drugs I've been taking in an attempt to deal with it.
So imagine The Dude from Big Labowski going: "Well...that's...all just...like a Leslie man..."
...
I should take less flu medication.
MOVING ON.
Choruses and Flangers are kinda the same, just one is a more extreme version than the other which creates a bit more "movement" within. They're swirly, time-based noisy spacey pretty things which I'm very fond of. However they effectively work the same:
The guitar signal goes in, then comes back out a fraction of a second later, after getting some filter applied to it. The result is a wobbly sound which kinda spins around the room and happens a fraction of a second after you've played the note.
This is pretty much what a Leslie does, but a Leslie physically does the thing. It spits the sound out of rotating horns (a fraction of a second later), spinning everything around the room and blahblahblah. Aside from the glorious throbbing thing that a real Leslie gives you (no innuendo intended, but will take credit for it), most of the chorusy, flangery sorta effects end up sounding Leslie-ish. Phaser pedals kinda work differently, but...not...THAT differently either.
So referring back to my brain-addled state, and the title of this thread, are most modulators basically just trying to be a Leslie or should I back off the cold\flu tablets?
