Using phaser effects
Phasers sound similar to chorus and flanger effects and are used in almost the same way. In phasers, a copy of the original sound is moved in and out of phase with the original. The focus of a phaser is to sweep frequencies across the spectrum.
When mixing, you want to place phaser effects before your delay and reverb effects in the signal chain.
Let’s apply a phaser effect to an instrument:
- Load up a sample or an instrument with notes and route it to a new mixer track.
- Add the Fruity Phaser effect. When you play your instrument, you will be able to hear a phaser effect:
Figure 7.19 – Fruity Phaser
- To hear examples of phaser effects, left-click on the default presets in the top right of the plugin.
The following is a description of the Fruity Phaser plugin controls:
- SWEEP FREQ. (short for frequency) sets the frequency of the low-frequency modulator.
- MIN DEPTH and MAX DEPTH...
