Time Based Effects

Time based Effects:

Time based effects usually effect the signal in a more noticeable way when compared to other stomp boxes. Essentially they work by mixing part of the original signal with a portion of atime-manipulated signal. These work well in an amps effect loop. Such effects include:

-Delay: is exactly as the name implies a delayed version of the original signal repeated.

-Chorus/Flange: These are used to create a "Fuller" sounding tone hence "Chorus". Compared to flange chorus is more subtle, although these two can often be used interchangeably. Flange has a more vintage tone and a noticeable whoosh when a considerable amount is used.

Pitch Shifter: Well exactly as the name implies, the original signals pitch is shifted and mixed up or down an octave.
