agreed. I hate all chorus' though. I say get a tremelo that's good and just speed it up.

Apart from the fact the sounds are totally different..

I know. I just hate chorus. It's sweet and pretty sounding. I think the small clone has it's place (nirvana and whatnot), but I think it sounds like ass.

I love phasers, buy more!

i seriously love this pedal, it can sound like a ring modulator, chorus, flagner, great pitch vibrato. i shall make samples if interested.

The Diamond Sea mod is something I just accidentally stumbled on while I was trying to do Univibe stages. I'm not even really sure that I could recreate it if I tried. The original Phase II is four stages, two of which have normal phase-y cap values (.001, I think) and the other two are much higher values (.33uf or so). I think the idea is to get a two stage phase sound synched with basically a tremolo, then add a lot of feedback. There's so much weird stuff going on in the PH-2's circuit, though, I can't really say what is making the sound. Best advice would be to buy a cheap phaser and screw with the caps until it sounds good.
And yes, almost my whole pedal board is phasers.
There's a store by me that has a Maestro phaser in stock (the one with the rocker switches), but it's around $500. They actually wanted to see some cash before they'd let me try it!
I like how chorus sounds on the low strings, but the highs always sound too pristine and chilly to me - I think i'd want something where I could control how much different frequencies are chorused.

PLZ, I've been looking for ring mod on the cheap for a while now..

I used to have a CF-7 (didn't care for it - too bright). It does a pretty good ring mod in "whak'd" mode, but the settings are a little unpredictable. The Ibanez PM-7 has a fast sawtooth wave setting that's much better IMO. The only crap thing about the 7 series is that they draw 10-15 times more power then most other pedals.

If you're using four, then there's nothing wrong with it. If you have four and don't use four, then that's obviously too many.

I use four, and could always use another

That's way too much. That model is just starting to edge up on Ebay these days. But it still doesn't seem to top $175.

Yeah - that store is really expensive. They wanted $85 for a DOD Thrashmaster the last time I was there. My ex-girlfriend's brother also has a Maestro that he's thinking about selling - don't know how much he wants, though. I'll probably just build one at some point.

CHORUS SUCKS.

ditto

chorus = stewpid.

I say line all the phasors up turn them on and break your ear-holes.

IMA CHARGIN MA PHAZUR!!!

i'm anti-modulation.



except for tremolo.
