FT Elletronica's "Twin Oscillator Phaser/Vibrato" is a twin oscillator phaser/vibrato but it offers a whole range of classic (and non-classic!) uses never previously available in one unit. It has an unparalleled purity and transparency of tone and harmonic richness making it a real texture machine. The subtle yet ever-changing way the controls interact has a truly mesmerising effect. It covers the whole spectrum from mellow and virtually subliminal, to crunchy and chomping (reminiscent of the ubiquitous 70's phase sound), to swirling rotary-type fx. On more subtle settings (especially in vibrato mode) it gives movement and life to the sound without discernible processing and because it sounds so natural you can almost forget its there - until you switch it off! In less introvert moments it can warp sounds into multi-dimensional knots or whip up squeals and harmonics into a sci-fi frenzy. It never manages to sound sickly on any setting, and in fact makes an ideal replacement for all the sounds contained in the thesaurus of chorus as it provides plenty of width and attack definition but without the nauseating side effects. Vibrato mode has a very vibraphone-like modulation. It is also useful for creating spacial 3D stereo effects by panning the output opposite a straight feed off a mixer.
