Retro Phaser has a vintage, lo-fi vibe. On the surface it looks similar to the EZ Phaser, but has more features, and a dedicated page for tone-shaping.
MINI-SLIDER
Controls the mix of the dry signal and the processed (Wet) signal. The percentage indicated is the amount of the signal that is Wet.
Range: 0 ~ 100%
PAGE ONE CONTROLS
- RATE
Controls how fast the LFO cycles. The value of the Rate control is determined by the Sync control. If Sync is engaged, then the vales of Rate will be in musical time. If Sync is not engaged, Rate’s values will be in Hz.
Range:
Synced: 32x,16x, 8x, 7x, 6x, 5x, 4x, 3x, 2x, 1/1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32, 1/64, 1/96, 1/1dot, 1/2dot, 1/4dot, 1/8dot, 1/16dot, 1/1triplet, 1/2triplet, 1/4triplet, 1/8triplet, 1/16triplet
Unsynced: 0.00Hz ~ 15.00 Hz
- DEPTH
Controls the sweep range of the modulation.
Range: 0 ~ 1
- SYNC
Engages and disengages synchronization of the LFO rate with the host’s tempo.
- POLES
Drop-down menu that selects how many stages or “poles” the phaser uses. More poles equal a more resonant sound character.
Range: 4, 6, 8, or 12 poles
- MANUAL
Controls the center point of the phaser.
Range: 0 ~ 100%
- FEEDBACK
Controls the amount of resonance / feedback of the phaser. High settings will oscillate.
Range: 0 ~ 100%
- INVERT
Changes the phase angle of the Phaser by 180, changing the tone character of the phasing.
PAGE TWO CONTROLS
- DIRT
Adds subtle overdrive to the Phaser’s signal.
- TONE
This control is a simple tone filter control.
Range: Dark ~ Bright
- TONE FX
Applies the Tone setting to both the wet and dry signals, or just the wet signal.
Range: WET / DRY or WET
- WIDTH
Controls the width of the stereo image of the phasing signal.
Range: 0 ~ 100%
- LEVEL
Adjusts the overall output.
Range: 0 ~ 13.0 dB
