Vintage Phaser &
Smooth Phaser
These are two effective types of Phaser that
sound just great. The Vintage Phaser will give
you a phasing effect similar to the one found in
old stomp boxes. The Smooth Phaser is a bit
more subtle – excellent for a less dominant
effect. The Vintage Phaser utilizes four All-pass
filters. These filters create a comb-looking
characteristic. When the filtered sound is mixed
with the direct sound, the “phasing sound”
occurs.
The Smooth Phaser utilizes twelve All-pass
filters. Due to the higher number of filters in the
Smooth Phaser (compared to the Vintage
Phaser), the Smooth Phaser creates a more
subtle, smooth effect than the Vintage type.
Speed
Range: 0.050 Hz to 19.95 Hz
Controls the speed of the Phaser.
Depth
Range: 0 to 100 %
Controls the depth (intensity) of the Phaser
effect.
Tempo
Range: 1/32T to 1 Bar or Ignored
The Tempo parameter sets the relationship to
the global Tempo.
When set to any value between 1 and
1/32T, the Global Tempo is subdivided
according to this setting. When set to
“Ignored”, the speed set using the
Speed parameter is used instead.
Feedback
Range: -100 to 100
Controls the amount of feedback in the Phaser.
Setting this parameter to “-100” reverses the
phase of the signal that is fed back to the
algorithm’s input.
Range
Range: Low to High
This parameter determines whether the phasing
effect should be mainly on the high-end or low-
end frequencies.
Phase Reverse
Settings: On/Off
When set to “On”, this parameter introduces a
small delay in one of the waveform starting
points, resulting in an LFO phase change.
Having an offset between the modulating
waveforms in the left and right channels will
create a more dramatic, widespread phasing
effect. You should definitely try this!
Mix
Range: 0 to 100 %
This parameter sets the relationship between
the level of the dry signal and the level of the
effect in this block.
OutLev – Out Level
Range: -100 to 0 dB
This parameter sets the overall output level for
this effect.
