Your favorite hardware phaser emulated on iOS and macOS

Dear All,

If you have a phaser pedal or any kind of hardware phaser that's near and dear to your heart, you can submit your recommendation any time.

If the given model saw several re-releases and you prefer a specific vintage, please include that as well, and preferably any background information on that selection or on the vintage differences.

Thanks and have a fabulous New Year!

  • A Behringer Small Stone clone and a Zoom MS-100.
    The cheaper Behringer phaser pedal sounds boring and phasers don't seem to be the strongest point of the H9 either.

  • MXR Phase 100. Forever.

    My favourite is the Plugin Alliance plugin version of the ADA flanger. I don’t have the hardware pedal, though.

    EDIT: oh, wait. You said phaser. Sorry.

    But still true. That ADA flanger was a freakin’ jet plane of a sound.

  • FAC Phazer is the best one I have found on iOS, the whooshing can be dramatic or subtle

  • MuTron Bi-Phase. But we already have PhaseThree from the AudioDamage. ;)

    Sold my Blackout Effectors WHETSTONE years ago.
    I haven‘t heard all the iOS phasers, is there one that can do this „slowest sweep ever“?

  • A pretty fresh list from guitarworld thus aimed for guitars.

    1. MXR M290 Mini Phase 95 Phaser Guitar
    2. Boss PH-3
    3. Source Lunar Phaser
    4. Fender Lost Highway
    5. Strymon Zelzah
    6. Maestro Orbit

    I just bought one of these…

    It’s an absolute tone sucker but it sounds so lush! If you end up modeling it, go with its bigger brother (MSP) as it has more features and sounds even better.

    Thanks for reminding I have this app 😂

  • I really love the EarthQuaker Devices phasers.

  • Thanks for all the suggestions so far.

    If you mean the VP1, that should be mostly identical to the currently available analog model in the plugin. Here is a comparison:

    The audible difference is the slightly sharper resonances at the high point of the LFO. This difference may be due to different hardware revisions being modeled of the original vintage pedal among other possible reasons.
    Is this specific nuance is what you're after, or is it something else (based on your familiarity with the plugin from the beta tests)?

    RealPhase offers a lot more than that and my answer was specifically related to the pedals I own, which are certainly not the best phaser pedals on the market 😊

  • FAC Phaser. All the time.

    When we were consulting regarding Yamaha string machines and recreating some vintage sounds, we've seen praises of the VP1 coming from very serious folks.
    And with the issues we've seen with modern re-releases of these vintage pedals, the VP1 does indeed look absolutely top-notch at what it does, unless you have the real thing from decades ago.

    Actually I have both the VP-1 and the (broken) original that I really should repair one day 😉

  • Hardware: Walrus Audio Lillian, MXR Phase 45
    iOS: FAC Phazer

  • I love Chase bliss WombTone and empress Phaser.
    Chase bliss WombTone Is much more flexible and an incredible phaser.

    Agree with this. Unfortunately, Fred Corvest still hasn’t brought Phazer to macOS. It is needed.

  • I'm a fan of MXR Phase 90/95/100.
