Product Detail
Rich Phase Sweeps, Deep Analog Vibe, and Tempo - Locked Modulation. Phase shifting is an incredibly versatile effect that has been at the heart of music from the 60s to the present, whether it's funk guitars, disco drums, jazz - fusion keys, or rock vocals. The Soundtoys PhaseMistress captures the sounds of legendary phasers in a single plug - in, taking this creative effect to new heights. Soundtoys has a passion for phasers, with them filling their test rooms, stock rooms, and halls. When designing PhaseMistress, they studied top - notch phasers like the Bi - Phase, Boss Super Phaser, and more to ensure it delivers a rich, silky analog sound. Then, they added deep tweakability and inspiring rhythmic tools. Deeply Customizable: It comes with useful presets and a user - friendly hardware - inspired interface. You have deep control over the phasing 'circuit'. Choose from 69 different style presets, set the number of stages from 2 to 24, and fine - tune resonance, color, and intensity for your unique phase - shifting styles. Versatile and Creative: Unlike many phasers that rely on a basic low - frequency oscillator (LFO), PhaseMistress offers a wide range of creative LFO shapes. You can even draw your own curves. Try random mode for robotic effects and step mode for non - sweeping phase shifts. Rhythm mode lets you program or choose pre - made rhythmic patterns, and envelope mode makes it respond to audio dynamics, perfect for funky drums, slap bass, or rhythm guitars. It works on guitars, bass, drums, vocals, and whole mixes. Features: Recreate a wide range of hardware phaser sounds, get authentic analog sounds with 69 built - in styles, tweak circuit - level options, choose from 6 operation modes, create envelope - follower effects, and draw your own LFO waveshapes and rhythmic patterns.
Using Soundtoys PhaseMistress is a breeze. First, open the plug - in in your audio software. You can start with one of the 69 useful presets to quickly get a great phase - shifting sound. If you want to customize, use the hardware - inspired interface to adjust the number of stages from 2 to 24. You can also play around with resonance, color, and intensity settings to create your unique style. For different effects, choose from the 6 operation modes like LFO, Rhythm, Step, and Random. In LFO mode, you can pick from various creative shapes or draw your own curves. In Rhythm mode, you can either program your own patterns or select pre - made ones. Envelope mode is great for making the effect respond to the audio dynamics. When using it on vocals, guitars, bass, or drums, start with a light setting and gradually increase the intensity until you get the desired sound.
