Product Information

Aguilar’s transducers, preamplifiers, processors, treatments, and enclosures were designed for bass players. Source Audio’s Soundblox 2 Orbital Modulator lives up to its wordy name. This expansive pedal will keep you busy with 3 chorus, 3 flanger, 2 resonator flanger, 5 phaser, and tremolo modes. Yeah, it’s a lot and a great option for bass players that want way more than just the speed knob when it comes to their phaser pedal. The sound is fairly clear and pure. The various phase contours are clearly defined and responsive to pure and warped channels.

Famous bassists from around the country have come to appreciate the sound, intensity, and dependability of Aguilar products, including John Patitucci, Adam Clayton (U2), and Paul Turner (Jamiroquai). Features

To be fair, MXR’s phases are recognized as classic films. Phase 45, on the other hand, was more of a series of episodes at the party than its more subdued cousin, Phase 100, which has become famous thanks to musicians like David Gilmour and the Phaser 90, which influenced Eddie Van Halen’s early work. Of course, if you’re a tone freak, you’ll probably favor an analog phaser, but we’d say, either way, go into it with an open mind and don’t form an opinion until you’ve tried a selection of pedals. When Should I Use My Phaser Pedal? Due to this, it is simple to set up and use. Relatively fewer switches mean less flexibility and greater durability. In defense of itself, the EVH90 is designed to sound like Eddie Haden and accomplishes just that. What Is The Difference Between The Phase 90 And 95? Main Features of MXR Phase 90 There are few controls on certain MXR EVH Phase 90. It features a variable speed lever and an on/off switch.The Phase 90 was the debut effect from MXR, which Terry Sherwood and Keith Barr formed in 1972 in Rochester, New York. Designed by Barr and released in either 1972 or ’74 (sources vary), the Phase 90 is a four-stage phaser, since it has four independent stages at which the signal’s phase is reversed, resulting in two modulated frequency notches. MXR phasers are a popular choice for Professional musicians’ pedalboards, and thus the MXR Compact Phase 95 controller combines two recognizable phaser impacts into one road-ready stomp box. Features of the MXR Mini Stage 95 Distortion Pedal If you want to dive into some truly funky bass tone exploration, the Orbital Modulator is worth considering. You may even end up saving space on your pedal board by going with something like this since there is some overlap between this phase pedal and the effects of other pedals you might be using with your bass guitar.

So whether your genre is some funk, disco, or dance. Or something more subtle like reggae or jazz fusion. A phaser pedal could really ramp up your bass tone. How Do Phaser Pedals Work? That mounting system was used as the foundation for MXR M107 Phase 100, which improved it to a new level. The orange box is still there, except this now is a dual wide. THE industry Standard Phaser FX Pedal for guitar, the Phase 90 takes you from subtle, spatial shimmer to all-out high velocity swooshing with the twist of a knob. Whether you want to trip in 60s Psychedelia, Machine Gun with Hendrix, or nail Van Halen's Eruption, you need the Phase 90 in your pedal collection! Phaser pedals are a favorite of guitarists worldwide. Whether searching for screeching 80’s tones or just looking to add a bit of dimension to your clean playing, a good phaser is a worthwhile addition to any guitarist’s collection.

On the other hand, if you are on the hunt for more variation in your tone, then a six or even eight-stage phaser may be a better choice. The Boss PH-3, Earthquaker Devices Grand Orbiter and Catalinbread Many Worlds are amazing options for those wanting to experiment with more unearthly sounds. Where should the phaser go in my pedal chain?

We talk about ‘ phase‘ a lot regarding recording and mixing. We usually don’t want to alter the phase of a sound as it can cause mix problems when certain frequencies get canceled out. However, a phaser pedal uses this technique to deliberately create movement in the sound for a watery, psychedelic effect. I have to give MXR credit for accurately recreating Phaser 45’s sugary sweet two-stage phasing, and Phase 95’s more intense four-stage phasing.

Essentially, a phaser takes an input signal sine wave, duplicates it and moves it out of phase. The phaser then recombines the sine waves, and the difference between their peaks and troughs creates that noted phased sound. Very basically, a phaser works by splitting the input signal into two identical parts and then delaying one of the copies, creating a phase shift. The relationship between these two signals is continuously changing over time, and this is what results in the famous swooshing sound. Even though it was originally made for the guitar, the Phase 90 is still my go-to recommendation for a bass phaser pedal. The MXR Phase 90 Classifier musical instrument phaser is ideal. It is dependable, well made, and easy to use. The MXR Tiny Phase 95 controller combines two of the most well-known phaser pedals ever produced by MXR.
