CONTROLS
The Phase is an easy to use pedal - however, the user friendly control set allows for a
wide variety of phase and vibe sounds.
SPEED
This sets the speed of the Low Frequency Oscillator (LFO) within a range of .2 to 10Hz-
from a very slow sweep to a fast ‘wobble’. Speed can also be controlled via an expression
plugged into the EXT jack located next to the input. Note that the LED provides a visual
reference to the speed setting even when the pedal is bypassed.
DEPTH
This control determines the intensity of phase modulation. Low settings provide a more
subtle effect while high setting allow for very prominent ‘swirl’.
REGEN
This control allows a portion of the output signal to be fed back into the input of the cir-
cuit. This feedback produces frequency peaks that alter the character of the effect.
VOL
This control allows the user to match the level of the bypassed sound and the sound with
the pedal engaged. Additionally, the range of the VOL control allows for an increase or a
decrease in level if desired. The VOL control is particularly useful when using the pedal
in VIB mode. In this mode the dry (unaffected) signal is removed from the mix resulting
in a lower overall level which can then be increased using the VOL.
