Actually been discovering that you can tame the noise by using the Mix knob, Drive and Outputs too, of course.

I think I knew this before. I really like the flange effect of this pedal. At 50% mix it's pretty noisy, but at 85%-100% there is significant noise reduction.

Also, I have a Fulltone Tube Tape Echo that I have been using for over six months without demagnetizing or changing the tape once, so my audio path is pretty noisy at the moment. However, the one day I took the TTE out of the audio path when I first tested this third version of the Cluster Flux I've owned, it was pretty noisy. Definitely, noisier than I remember the other pedals being . . . but I still effing love it and it probably won't be leaving my board.

This track I just cut demonstrates the pedal as the main modulator in flange mode with the 12-stage Phaser bi-phasing away in the effects loop. Delay is provided by the noisy TTE., and tons of extra modulating and wobbling courtesy of the KOMA RH-301. The background pulsing was done by the 101 LPF and MURF sent to the stereo head in my Bogner Duende Seco Mojado, which was not mic'd directly:

Really loving using the Cluster Flux with the Phaser in the loop, and the Rh-301 controlling the LFO rates.

This track is a lot more lush than that last one and actually stereo:

Just got one home for a loan. My first impressions are that it's too subtle for my kind of bass sounds. Really likes it together with the 103 with open filter though!

I'll return it on monday unless there's a revelation this weekend.
