PH3605 Phaser Guitar Effect Software
Thank you for choosing Kuassa products!
We encourage you to take the time to read this User Manual thoroughly to
ensure trouble free and proper operation of the software.
Following the previous Efektor Distortion series, please welcome the newest
addition to the Efektor series: Efektor Modulation. We studied and examined
more than 20 models of fabled modulation effects from the 1950s to the last
decade. From rack gears, desktop units, and effect pedals as well. Modulation
effects are widely used by organ/synth players, guitarists, and studio
engineers to add width, depth, and movement to the original sound. In this
latest bundle, we collect the prominent ones and packed them into four
devices.
Full name, phase shifter. Typically more subtle than flanger, but sounds like warbles coming from outer space. Often used on Rhodes electric piano, and of course by uitarists such as Brian May (Queen) and Eddie Van Halen (Van Halen).
- Phase One: Mild phasing effect, great for clean tone. Less dramatic sweep.
- Dual Phase: Warm and thick phasing sound that sounds great with distorted guitar tones. Great for many instruments such as guitar, bass, keyboards, and vocals.
- Multi Phase: More intense effect . Offers more than a standard wobbling effect.
Key Features:
- Three modes of Modulation in every units.
- Bypass switch button.
- BPM sync.
- Mono or stereo mode.
- CV inputs for automation (RE Only)
