Phaser effect
Similar
to flanging, phasing shifts the phase of an audio signal and recombines
it with the original, creating psychedelic effects first popularized
by musicians of the 1960s. But unlike the Flanger effect, which
uses variable delays, the Phaser effect sweeps a series of phase-shifting
filters to and from an upper frequency. Phasing can dramatically
alter the stereo image, creating unearthly sounds.
Standard settings- Amount
- Controls the ratio of original to processed sound.
Advanced settings- Stages
- Specifies the number of phase-shifting filters. A higher
setting produces denser phasing effects.
- Intensity
- Determines the amount of phase‑shifting applied to the signal.
- Depth
- Determines how far the filters travel below the upper frequency.
Larger settings produce a wider tremolo effect.
- Mod Rate
- Modulation rate controls how fast the filters travel to and
from the upper frequency. Specify a value in Hz (cycles per second).
- Phase Diff
- Determines the phase difference between stereo channels.
Positive values start phase shifts in the left channel, negative
values in the right. The maximum values of +180 and -180 degrees
produce a complete difference and are sonically identical.
- Upper Freq
- Sets the upper-most frequency from which the filters sweep.
To produce the most dramatic results, select a frequency near the
middle of the selected audio’s range.
- Feedback
- Feeds a percentage of the phaser output back to the input,
intensifying the effect. Negative values invert phase before feeding
audio back.
- Mix
- Controls the ratio of original to processed audio.
- Output Gain
- Adjusts the output level after processing.
