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.46% — somewhat different

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.
The SolidGoldFX Oblivion is a deep, multi-mode analog-voiced flanger built around four independent delay lines, with tap tempo, multiple LFOs and CV control. Three flange modes, Classic with a momentary thru-zero effect, Dual, and Quad, span subtle classic flange and chorus-like shimmer up to massive swooshing tsunamis of swirling texture. Three selectable LFO waveforms, an analog dry blend, and a unique per-mode lo-fi Degrade setting unlock ring-mod-like and robotic overtones beyond normal flanging. A Blend control sweeps from light, polite chorus to a full-on whirlpool of flange, while expression and CV inputs, internal dip switches and a multi-function footswitch for tap tempo, speed ramping and LFO braking make it one of the most powerful and creative flangers available for experimental and modern players.
