Pedals that stack with the MXR Flanger

Wren and Cuff Box of War Small Foot Fuzz

Run the Flanger after the Box of War's Big Muff-style fuzz so the sweep has thick sustain to work through instead of a thin clean signal.

Electro-Harmonix Big Muff Pi

Run the Big Muff's thick, creamy fuzz after the MXR Flanger's warm analog sweep so the saturation picks up that shimmer instead of masking it.

NuX Atlantic

MXR Flanger's low gain voice goes after NuX Atlantic in the signal chain — it's not there to compete with NuX Atlantic's own analog warmth character — goes in the amp's FX loop (or last, into a clean amp)

Dunlop FFM3 Jimi Hendrix Fuzz Face Mini

Keep MXR Flanger after Dunlop FFM3 Jimi Hendrix Fuzz Face Mini in the signal chain, clear of Dunlop FFM3 Jimi Hendrix Fuzz Face Mini's own gain stage

Strymon NightSky

Keep MXR Flanger after Strymon NightSky in the signal chain, clear of Strymon NightSky's own gain stage — goes in the amp's FX loop (or last, into a clean amp)

Catalinbread Silver Kiss MK2 2007 Reissue

Put MXR Flanger after Catalinbread Silver Kiss MK2 2007 Reissue in the signal chain, clear of Catalinbread Silver Kiss MK2 2007 Reissue's own gain stage

Dawner Prince Boonar

The MXR Flanger's subtle, shimmering sweep trails into the Boonar's vintage studio delay with a warm, modulated signal to echo. — goes in the amp's FX loop (or last, into a clean amp)

Friedman IR-J Jake E Lee Boost

MXR Flanger's low gain voice goes after Friedman IR-J Jake E Lee Boost in the signal chain — it's not there to compete with Friedman IR-J Jake E Lee Boost's own bright character

Alexander Pedals SpaceXpander

Run the MXR Flanger's subtle, shimmering sweep into the SpaceXpander's bright, analog reverb and the modulation trails off in that spring-like decay. — goes in the amp's FX loop (or last, into a clean amp)
