can you share with us what effect you used in the intro's for the guitars on "Cherub Rock" and "Rocket"? it sounds like some type of panning thing for sure, but maybe some phase thing (that doesn't exactly sound like a phaser either).

i recall watching the Viewphoria video, and Billy mentioned it was a "vertical extrapolator", but obviously there's no such thing...
Jeff might remember...but I think it was an Electro-Harmonix pedal set to the slowest speed.

We did do a lot of actual tape flanging on the album,,,,like the solo in Cherub Rock.
