Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.51% — moderately similar

The BLAXX BX-Flanger by Stagg is a budget two-mode flanger with Filter and Normal voicings, plus Rate, Range, and Colour controls for shaping the sweep depth and speed. It offers a compact, affordable entry into classic flanger modulation, from subtle movement to more pronounced jet-plane-style sweep depending on mode and settings. Die-cast metal housing and true bypass keep it durable and simple for budget pedalboards. It suits players wanting an accessible, no-frills flanger with two distinct voicing options rather than a single fixed sweep character.
The Electro-Harmonix Andy Summers Walking on the Moon is an analog flanger and filter matrix pedal based on the vintage Deluxe Electric Mistress circuit, developed in collaboration with Andy Summers of The Police. It reproduces the lush, chorus-like flanging heard on Police recordings including Walking on the Moon and Message in a Bottle, where Summers used the original Electric Mistress. Controls are Rate, Range, and Color, plus a Filter Matrix switch that freezes the LFO and holds the flanger at a fixed comb-filter position. True bypass.
