The Planetary Phase is a completely original phaser design that pays tribute to the iconic sounds of some of the most legendary phasing sounds of the ‘70s and ‘80s. Perfect for both clean and dirty, the Planetary Phase covers it all from vibey, Leslie-esque sounds to funky rhythms and, of course, the iconic phase sounds of ‘eruption’. Featuring a momentary bypass mode, it’s perfect for engaging the effect for just a few bars to help take parts to the next level.

Key Features

  • Initial State – Set the pedal’s power-up state using the hardwired ‘initial state’ switch, perfect for when using with pedalboard switching systems, and you want to ensure that your pedal always powers up on.

Specialist Effects Pedals

Specialist effects alter the signal in ways that do not sit cleanly inside one established family. They may use granular processing, frequency shifting, resonators, freeze or sustain, bit reduction, ring modulation, feedback networks or combinations of several techniques. The relevant distinction is the underlying process, its tracking or latency, and how completely the dry signal can be blended or replaced.

Bass

Voiced or equipped to retain low-frequency fundamentals and the higher headroom of a bass signal. Clean blends, crossovers and bass-specific filter ranges can preserve weight and articulation while the effected portion adds harmonics, movement or ambience.
