Description:
The Static Phaser is a classic Phase shifting effect constructed
with an allpass filter (to the nth degree) in parallel to a copy of the incoming signal.
The sound the phaser emits is similar to the flange but it does not sweep the
delay time like the flange, it sweeps the actual phase. The phaser is useful for atmospherics to
add warmth and give a deeper feel to the overall mix and for drum loops as demonstrated in the demo song.
Paramaters:
Depth: This controls the amount of phase from 0 to 100%.
Feedback: This sets the amount (from -1 to 1) that the wet signal is fed back unto
itself. For optimum results set it between 50% and -50% (unless you like self-oscillation of course).
Stages: This sets how many times the allpass filter will loop back unto itself. For optimum results set to 5 or 6
LFO Len: This sets how long for the LFO to loop in ticks, 1 for a very fast warping sound and 512 for a long sweep.
Shift: In manual mode (see Mode parameter) this parameter lets you sweep the phase shift manually, very handy indeed.
Mode: In Manual mode you sweep the phase shift using the "shift" parameter. In automatic the LFO does this for you based on a sine wave
Trigger: Use this in the pattern view to trigger the Phaser's LFO or to turn it off (same as setting depth to 0).
