INSIGHT

Phaser Basics

  • Phasers add width and motion to sounds, transforming a flat, mono synth pad into something more dynamic.
  • They achieve this by duplicating, filtering, and recombining the signal, creating peaks and troughs.
ADVICE

Stages Advice

  • Start with fewer stages in your phaser and gradually increase, listening for the desired effect.
  • The number of stages drastically changes the sound, so let your ears guide you.
ANECDOTE

Spread Function Demo

  • Eddie demonstrates the spread function on a vocal line, showing how it widens the stereo image.
  • Zero percent spread keeps the effect mono, while 100% creates a wide stereo effect.
