hi

4-12 stages?

rise and fall ? not really
tap tempo? is it really useful ?

so
mxr phaser 100
mxr phaser 99
mxr phase 90
mxr mini phase 95

mxr evh

boss phaser

tc helix phaser ?
 
Re: a very good phaser

I think the classic sound, to me, is a 4 stage phaser. More stages sound more wild, and less classic.

Before you buy a phaser give a univibe a try they're surprisingly versatile
 
Re: a very good phaser

The best sounding phasers I've heard lately are
1.) Whirlwind Orange Box
2.) Keeley Phase 24
3.) DOD Phasor reissue
 
Re: a very good phaser

i have the mxr univibe but it's not a phaser

i wonder why there are not a lot of 12 stages phasers
 
Re: a very good phaser

The Boss PH-3 has a 12-stage setting. I think it's pretty good.

It might not sound like a Phase 90, but a univibe is a 4-stage phaser. I used to have an MXR EVH Phase 90 on my board, but it was recently kicked off by a Fulltone Dejavibe 2.

For the sounds you're after, a Phase 90 or 95 sounds like a great bet. Personally, I'd go with the EVH Phase 90 as I have a use for both the script and block logo sounds. The 95 doesn't really interest me as I've always found Phase 45s too subtle to be all that useful.
 
Re: a very good phaser

i can have a t-rex tremonti phaser
is it really analog or a mix ?

i read it did not sound vintage

strange ?
 
Re: a very good phaser

someone told me that the phase 95 had more sounds than the MXR EVH
It does have more sounds, but they're ones I won't use. If you want Phase 45 sounds, the 95 is better. Otherwise the EVH Phase 90 can be found for less $$$.

so the EVH phase 90 won't sound like a 45 ? it has 2 sounds with the script knob too


i really don't know the differences : 45 /90

and what i can say is
no
mxr 95 : 125 €
mxr evh 174 € mxr signature are always more expensive ( EVH models, Bonamassa ) than the others

When I said it could be found for less, I was referring to the used market. The Phase 95 is relatively new while the EVH has been around for a while and tends to be easier to find used at a lower price.
