Phaser
The touch strip controls a phaser effect, created by multiple
ganged all-pass filters to create “notches,” or sharp spikes,
in the frequency spectrum. The frequencies of these all-pass
filters can be modulated by an LFO to create a sweeping
sound.

Comb Filter
The touch strip controls a comb filter, which creates
“notches” in the frequency spectrum, similar to the phaser,
by delaying the audio signal and adding it back to itself.
