What kind of phaser pedals do you guys like/hate?
I want more modulation on my board!

I have a Dunlop rotovibe, which has vibrato and phaser in a wah enclosure. I like the sounds of both and the functionality of the wah. The phaser is way more intense than the vibrato though. I'd recommend it if you could get a used one for $120 or less, probably alot less. They've been discontinued.

I think a better question for me would be "Have you ever met a phaser you didn't like?".

The answer is "No, no I haven't".

I don't like Phase 90s...

I'm using a moog and a phase 45 on my big board am planning on using a maxon PT-707 on a stripped down small board I am working on, has a rotovibe and like it, have 2 smallstones 70's and sovtek.. I don't like the nano ones as much though...

I really like the univibe style pedals over regular phasers, I like the fact that they are super lush and considering I play mostly clean this is an advantage to me. Also, the wave form is cool, breaks things up a little. If I do use a normal phaser though I'm not keen on a stong positive feedback sound, I feel like it overpowers everything. Phasers I've had in the past and liked are the Red Witch Deluxe Moon Phaser, The Blackout Effectors Whetstone and the Maxon PH-350. None of them are really cheap options but all of them were pretty good.

I'm going to be that one guy in every phaser thread who plugs his whetstone.
I have #10, and it is never leaving me.

It's a really versatile phaser, and it sounds great.
It is however, expensive. That might not be what you're looking for.

I like the Earthquaker Devices Grand Orbiter Phase Machine
& the Blackout Effectors Crystal Dagger
but vintage ibanez phasers like the phase tone II are also grrrrrreattt!

I'll second the Whetstone, I don't think mine's every leaving my board either. But yeah, expensive. Blackout Sibling phaser might be another option?

Currently, I have a V1 Small Stone

I've had Tall Font Sovtek Small Stone, Pigtronix EP-1, EHX Polyphase, Faye Sing, Whetstone and Boss PH-2 before... they're all cool, different flavours, but I must say that personally, I enjoy the simple Small Stone and Boss PH-2 the best

Oh, I'm also a big fan of the Boss PH-1r.
Wicked phase tones. I want to pick one up eventually.

Faye Sing or Faye's Her
love the vocality.

I also have a whetstone, but have not gotten into probably 80% of the available sounds in this machine because it is so packed with features. Definitely for the serious phaserite.

I've sung the praises of the Subdecay Baby Quasar far and wide, especially when used on bass. Freq + voice control = tonal flexibility!

Sadly, they're no longer in production, though Subdecay now has fancier Quasars available. Maybe you could find one on evilBay if you wuz lookin'.

Edit: while I aven't tried it myself, I've heard good things about the EQD Grand Orbiter.
