Electric Mistress

The Electric Mistress by Electro-Harmonix is a flanger/chorus pedal known for its unique features and design. Developed by David Cockerell, the pedal relies on the bucket-brigade device to produce its distinctive effects. The pedal offers a "Filter Matrix" mode, which allows players to manipulate the flange position, similar to studio effects. The Electric Mistress is recognized for its liquidy character and chorusy flanging, with a slightly jet-like tone. The Deluxe Electric Mistress, designed by Electro Harmonix engineer Howard Davis, features a noise filter, making it less noisy than the original Mistress. The pedal has a slightly more jet-like tone, with a hint more mid-range and low end. The Electric Mistress has been extensively used by artists such as David Gilmour, known for its unique and recognizable sound. The pedal's functionality and design have made it a significant and influential tool for creating distinctive flanger and chorus effects.
