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.

The EarthQuaker Devices Pyramids is a stereo flanging device offering eight modes of flanger, from classic 1980s arena rock sweeps to the dramatic infinity bending of Through Zero flanging. It features positive and negative feedback, a low and high pass Modify filter control, a Mix knob, tap tempo and five user definable presets, along with full stereo operation for wide, immersive flange. From subtle jet like swoosh to extreme, metallic and morphing textures, it covers the full range of flanging. It suits players across rock, ambient, funk and experimental styles who want a deep, flexible, stereo capable flanger with presets, tap tempo and the distinctive through zero effect in one rugged pedal.
The Old Blood Noise Endeavors Flat Light is a textural flange shifter, not a reverb, built around the Spin FV-1 chip with three distinct modes: Detune for a shimmering, subtly pitch-shifted flange, Resonate for a highly resonant, swooshing multiflange, and Echo for a lush, ambient, reverb-like delay texture. Rate, Depth, Shift, and Mix controls shape the effect, which sounds cleanly digital rather than mimicking the coloration of vintage bucket-brigade flangers, and it responds dynamically to playing intensity. It suits ambient, post-rock, and experimental players wanting a genuinely textural, shimmering flanger that can range from subtle pitch movement to swooshing chaos to reverb-like wash.
