audiority Flanger Electric Matter
Electric Matter
(AAX, AU, CLAP, VST2, VST3) produced by Luca Capozzi (Audiority Srls), April 2022
Current Manual version: v1.3
The Electric Matter is a faithful simulation of the Electro-Harmonix® Deluxe
Electric Mistress™, a late 70’s BBD flanger and filter matrix pedal. This
flanger, featuring a Reticon SAD1024 BBD chip, has been used by countless
artists for either subtle, to make leads dreamy and divine, or more prominent
to emulate Leslie rotors. Compared to the classic version, the Deluxe models
feature a different LFO and VCO circuit, leading to a wider range of settings.
Our Electric Matter goes further by fixing the tone sucking and volume drop
often related to these hardware units. Please, read carefully both product
specifications and system requirements before purchasing any Audiority
product.

PLUGIN ACTIVATION
Once you install and open the plugin for the first time, it will be in Demo Mode until a license file is loaded. In Demo Mode the plugin will output 3 seconds of silence every minute. You can activate the plugin either OFFLINE or ONLINE.
OFFLINE ACTIVATION
If you purchased the plugin from our site, you should have received an email
to download the installers and the license file. Save the license file you got
with your purchase email (or via our User Area) anywhere on your computer.
Then, to activate the plugin, click on the Audiority logo and select
“Register”. The Registration window will pop up allowing you to load the
license file you got while purchasing the plugin by clicking the “Load
License” button. Alternatively, you can drag and drop the license file on the
registration window.
NOTE: If you purchased the plugin from one of our dealers, please check the “USER AREA AND REDEEM CODES” section below.
ONLINE ACTIVATION
Insert your Username (or email address), your password and click the “Login” button. The license file will be automatically delivered in your computer and the plugin will be activated.
USER AREA AND REDEEM CODES
If you purchased from one of our dealers, then you should have received an
email with a redeem code. This code is required to deposit a license in your
User Area account and let you download the license file or activate the plugin
online.
If you don’t have an User Area account yet, please follow these steps:
- Go to https://www.audiority.com/register and fill out the signup form. If you are registered to our User Area, then you can activate the plugin online.
- Once registered, log in to your account by clicking the User Area section of our site. Click the REDEEM section of your account and paste the code you received via email from our dealer.
- After submitting the code, a license will be deposited in your account and will be shown in “MY PLUGINS” section of your User Area.
- Now you can click “License File” and save the license anywhere on your computer and ready to be loaded through the plugin registration window. You can also skip this part and activate your plugin online (see previous section of this manual).
USER PATHS SETTING
By selecting “Settings” from the logo menu, you can change the path for the Presets, License, and IR folders. You can also disable our Newsfeed from here.
Note: Please do not move the Settings folder from its default location.
Plugin Parameters
TOOLBAR
The Toolbar allows you to manage the plugin presets, register the plugin, and
set some global parameters. By clicking the AUDIORITY logo, in the top left
corner of the Toolbar, you’ll be able to visit our website and social
profiles, register the plugin, change the interface size and customize the
paths for license and preset files. The HQ button will enable oversampling,
useful for reducing aliasing when the signal saturates. Use the Randomize and
Reset buttons to experiment with random presets or restore them to their saved
version. Press CTRL+DOUBLE CLICK on any knob to manually assign a new value.
PARAMETERS
- COLOR Adjusts the intensity of the flanger effect
- RANGE Adjusts the lower limit of the flanger sweep
- RATE Controls the speed of the flange modulation. This is disabled when FILTER MATRIX is enabled
- FILTER MATRIX When enabled, the modulation is disconnected from the circuit, freezing the flanger and creating a matrix of filters. Use the RANGE knob to change the filter position and COLOR to set the depth of filtering
GLOBAL CONTROLS (Footer)
- VINTAGE Switch between Deluxe (standard version for this plugin) and vintage 18V versions of this pedal
- TZ / THRU-0 Sets Through-Zero Mode, where the dry signal is time aligned with the flanged one. It provides a different flanger color.
- SYNC Syncs the modulation speed to the host
- INPUT / OUTPUT Pre/Post effect gain
- MIX Dry/wet signal mixer
- SPREAD Widen the stereo image by phase shifting the right channel LFO. Won’t have any effect when the plugin is on a mono track.
RESIZING CONTROLS (Audiority logo menu)
- Small / Default / Big Size Reduce, reset, or increase the size of the plugin interface.
- Resizing Corner You can resize from the bottom right corner of the GUI
- RIGHT-CLICK OPTIONS: Each one of the knobs can be locked so it won’t change its value. This is very useful when you load the plugin on an AUX/SEND channel. To lock a knob, simply RIGHT CLICK it and select LOCK PARAMETER.
