Does melee channeling increase swing speed?

Only damage as well as effects from certain channeling mods

Only if you Quickening (+swing speed -channeling efficiency) equipped. Or, in a roundabout manner, if you have both Berserker and True Punishment (+critical chance -channeling efficiency).

Otherwise, swing speed is the same whether you have channeling on or not.

Fury mod ups swing speed to a max of 30%. Berserker mod makes it so your 30% faster for 24 secs after a crit. Combine with dual Zoren that has 1.5 attack speed... cant. see. attacks.

Berserker mod makes it so your 30% faster for 24 secs after a crit...

 

Not to mention, it stacks, making Fury mod less of a requirement for weapons that have at least 10% crit chance.

 

Anyway, to answer OP's question:

The swing speed only gets boosted by melee channeling if you got the Quickening mod on.

But I did quite a lot of tests and it felt like the super-dash got triggered easier when I was melee channeling. Might be my imagination.

 

And by super dash, I mean:
