As heard prominently on Jack White’s guitar solo in “Why Walk a Dog?”, this monophonic synth-fuzz has delighted and bewildered listeners since Jack began using it back in 2014. The Mantic Flex can provide an array of sounds from thick, phase sweeping squarewaves with pitch divebombs to brutal bitcrushed octaves and fluttery thereminesque squawks.

Axiom Proverb "At The Drive In" Limited Edition

Bigger sound, smaller box! The Hulk is an update on our very popular Density Hulk subharmonic synth.
The controls have been streamlined to save space, as most people only used the 30hz and 60hz controls as "set and forget". They are still accessible, however, via internal trimpots. The default setting for both is max.

The max output volume has been increased.

An internal switch allows the footswitch to act as a "kill dry". This feature is for users who desire to run sub direct to FOH but don't want their uneffected signal to pass when the pedal is disengaged.
Unlike other updated sub pedals, we managed to keep the dedicated dry output on this model as well as offer a smaller footprint.

Glitched out pitch-mod growls with cerebrum piercing sqwuelches, angry-duck-funk quack, and gargling stutters are all just at the surface of the Flex's sonic potential. With an added Mix control, Filter range selector, and variable speed LFO for tracking modulation, the Mantic Flex Pro shreds expectations like a phone book.

Initially released in 2014, the Mantic Flex continues to set itself apart from other PLL's. The Flex Pro is voiced and biased to offer what we found to be the most usable range of PLL sounds in a broad musical context, without compromising the users ability to experiment.

The Flex Pro comes with an expression jack to control the rate of the LFO.

"Get Flexed!"
