Alexander Pedals has released the Dynaflanger Model 213, a 10-mode flanger and the company's fourth Leap Series edition¹. Delicious Audio reported the pedal on October 27, 2023, saying it was shipping in December 2023 and available for preorder². Guitar Pedal X published its coverage on November 1, 2023¹.

The pedal has a screen and four variable parameter knobs, with 32 user presets arranged in 4 banks of 8 or two banks of 16¹. The 10 modes are AUTO, DYNA, DUAL AUTO, DUAL DYNA, SPIRAL, STEP, ECHO FLANGER, FLERB, FILTER SAMPLE HOLD and TURBO, covering chorus, envelope control, stereo, reverb, echo, filter and tremolo¹. Delicious Audio described it as "a flanger encyclopedia in a box"².

Input is mono or stereo over TRS, and output is mono or stereo over TRS or dual outputs¹. The MultiJack takes an expression pedal, footswitch or MIDI input, and the pedal supports the optional AlExpander passive foot controller¹. EXP Morph controls all knobs from an expression pedal, the ramp footswitch or MIDI, and there is an automatic ramping function for expression control without an external pedal¹. A CTL footswitch handles tap tempo and ramp trigger, and a USB port handles firmware updates and USB MIDI¹. Bypass is buffered, with selectable trails on all modes with delay or reverb¹.

The DSP is an FXCore unit with more than 8 times the processing power of the company's previous Neo Series pedals, according to the maker¹. Input impedance is 1M ohms and output impedance is 560 ohms¹. The pedal runs on isolated 9V DC power at 250mA or greater and measures 4.7 by 2.6 by 1.5 inches, not including knobs¹. MAP is $229.99¹.

The two accounts differ on the mode list: Delicious Audio gives the ninth mode as "Flerb B," while Guitar Pedal X gives it as "FLERB"¹².
