 LFO Phase knob and field (only available in stereo and surround instances): Controls the
phase relationship between the individual channel modulations. At 0°, the extreme
values of the modulation are achieved simultaneously for all channels. 180° or –180°
is equal to the greatest possible distance between the modulation phases of the
channels. The LFO Phase parameter is available only if the LFO Left Right Link button
is active.
 Distribution menu (only available in surround instances): Defines how the phase offsets
between the individual channels are distributed in the surround field. You can
choose from Circular, Random, Front <> Rear, and Left <> Right distribution. When
you load a setting that uses the Random option, the saved phase offset value is
recalled. If you want to randomize the phase setting again, choose “new random“ in
the Distribution menu.
 Vol.Mod. (Volume Modulation) slider and field: Use this to determine how much of an
impact the LFO modulation has on the amplitude of the effect signal.
 Output Mix slider and field: Determines the balance between dry and wet signals.
Phaser
The Phaser effect combines the original signal with a copy that is slightly out of phase
with the original. This means that the amplitude of the two signals reach their highest
and lowest points at slightly different times. The timing differences between the two
signals is modulated by two independent LFOs.
In addition, the Phaser includes a filter circuit and a built-in envelope follower that tracks
any volume changes in the input signal, thereby generating a dynamic control signal.
 Filter button: Click to activate the filter section, which processes the feedback signal
of the Pitch Shifter.
 LP and HP knobs and fields: Use these to set the cutoff frequency of the filter section’s
highpass and lowpass filters.
 Feedback slider and field: Determines the amount of the effect signal that is routed
back into the input of the effect.
 Ceiling and Floor slider and fields: Use the individual slider handles to determine the
frequency range that will be affected by the LFO modulations.
