In the summer of ’68, Todd Rundgren and his band, Nazz, released a song awash with tape flanging called “Open My Eyes.” The flanging effect played a key role in Eventide’s genesis. In our founding year, 1971, we introduced audio’s first rack mount effects box, the Instant Phaser, which emulated tape flanging. And, in 1975, the Instant Flanger. Fast forward to now, Eventide’s crew recorded the basic tracks of “Open My Eyes” at Hobo Sound and challenge you to download the stems and remix it.
