    Hello Guys,

    can anyone recommend me a good VST Phaser?
    I am looking for the sound of e.g. the Boss Phaser PH-2 (what is unfortunately hardware).

    I am running Cubase, but I cannot make friends with their stock phasers.
    Tried Kuassa, better than Cubase, but not close to the Boss.

    Any tipps are appreciated!
    Thank you!

    Be shure that you´ll never find a software phaser that sounds like a hardware one. The closer i´ve been is with Big Rock by Arts Acoustic and more recently Arturia Bi-Tron. Also Phase-Vibe Rack from Nembrini Audio. Good luck.

    Bi-Tron phaser in the Arturia Modulation Bundle is not bad. Nomad Factory APH2S-3 is pretty nice.
    I don't think either are going to sound like a Boss pedal tho.

    Did you try the BomShanka Aardvarkk Phaser yet? I haven't had reason to really check it out yet.

    Fazortan is good, though, IMO! The first preset ("Funktronique" or something like that) is my go-to Phaser on everything.

    MOTU's DP has also a really nice Small Stone emulation called Clear Pebble that sounds really nice. They also do an MXR 90 "Script" emulation but to me it sounds kind of weird. https://motu.com/en-us/products/software/dp/plugins/guitar-effects/

    what about noiseash action phaser?

     
  17. If you're looking for classic 60's era tape phasing... good luck... I've been search for years. Closest I got is Waves MFlanger. I think that's what it's called. Starts with an M anyway. Maybe Metaflanger? Either way if some one knows a real tape flange effect let me know.

    Also TAIP can be used for this. Dom Sigalas showed this in his latest YouTube video

    There's a trick how to make even the most digital mod FX sound analog, that basically amounts to "put it on a send, slap RC-20 on it and don't overdo anything".
    In long, you make it pitch-drift a bit (no more than 5-10 percent, with flux around 25%) and saturate it (diode or iron, no more than 10-15%), then add some analog hum (once again, around 10%, routing to "Post") and finally cut off some of the subs and highs. Viola, your phaser is analogue.
    The point is to know what differentiates digital mod FX from analog ones and try recreating the difference.
