The plugin adds Expanded settings modules, so you can replicate Bob\u2019s advanced workflow, easily dialling in the distinct, engaging modulation effects heard on songs from the world\u2019s most influential artists.<\/p>\n Clearmountain’s Favourite Flanger at your Fingertips<\/strong><\/p>\n Originally created through a laborious process requiring two tape machines playing back the same material in sync, but with a slight varispeed on one of the machines, the Flanger effect required a lot of gear, setup and expertise to pull off. Clearmountain\u2019s Phases brings Bob Clearmountain\u2019s favourite hardware Flanger processor to your fingertips, with control over the original manual sweep, sweep oscillator and mix.<\/p>\n With Expanded controls including feedback, LFO Phase, high-pass filters, and polarity reverse controls, you can emulate workflows in the plugin that required external gear with the original modules. The true \u201czero crossing\u201d Tape Flange mode reproduces the dramatic effect when two tape machines flange perfectly. You can even \u201cswap out\u201d the core bucket-brigade delay (BBD) chip to explore vastly greater sweep ranges. Finally, to really add the grit and flavour of the original hardware to your tracks, dial in your desired amount of distortion and aliasing.<\/p>\n It’s not just a Phase… It’s Feedback, LFO and Vintage Analog<\/strong><\/p>\n The Phaser offers a gentler modulation that Bob uses to create the quintessential watery, undulating electric piano, the occasional psychedelic drum kit, and more extreme textures in combination with the flanger. You\u2019ll find many of the same Original and Expanded controls as the flanger \u2013 feedback, LFO Phase, high-pass filters and polarity reverse controls \u2013 for a consistent user experience. With the Stages knob, you can reproduce the sonic characteristics of hardware phasers from stompbox favourites to vintage hardware units to modern plugins. Dial-in feedback to intensify the effect with added resonance, then adjust the Feedback Tap knob for even more sonic variations. Engage the Analog button to more closely model the original hardware\u2019s feedback implementation. Finally, send the plugin back in time with the Age trimpot, to reproduce the mellowing effects of ageing hardware components.<\/p>\n Configuration for your Sonic Imagination<\/strong><\/p>\n When Bob was looking to create a richer, more extreme texture, he\u2019d send his tracks through both flanger and phaser modules, and you can do the same with the Module Config feature. Flange the phaser, phase the flanger, or apply both and mix \u2013 whatever achieves the sound in your imagination!<\/p>\n To add a swirling width that moves across the stereo soundstage, he\u2019d patch in multiple modules, then set different sweep rates for the left and right sides of each module. Listen to Mick\u2019s vocal on the Stones\u2019 \u201cHeaven\u201d track, or Bowie\u2019s \u201cChina Girl\u201d recording to hear the result. You can recreate these unique sounds with the Module Config and Sweep Rate Select features.<\/p>\n Access Iconic Presets or Easily Dial-in your Own<\/strong><\/p>\n When the Clearmountain name is on the box, rest assured that Bob himself pored over every detail, and that includes the presets you get with the plugin. You don\u2019t need an engineering degree to get started \u2013 instead, look over the shoulder of a master mixer!<\/p>\n Bob has carefully created each preset based on specific instruments and processing from his extensive catalogue of timeless hit mixes. Want to experience the Stones \u201cHeaven\u201d vocal sound described above? Simply load the preset!<\/p>\n Once you\u2019ve unlocked the secrets of the presets, you\u2019ll find it surprisingly easy to conjure your own Phases, from mellow to madness!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=BARpxwNZMQY&ab_channel=ApogeeElectronics<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":41788,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[3558],"product_cat":[26,28,29],"product_tag":[705,45,384],"class_list":{"0":"post-6073","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_brand-apogee-digital","7":"product_cat-effects","8":"product_cat-guitar-amps-effects","9":"product_cat-mixing","10":"product_tag-flanger","11":"product_tag-effect","12":"product_tag-phaser","14":"first","15":"instock","16":"downloadable","17":"virtual","18":"taxable","19":"purchasable","20":"product-type-simple"},"yoast_head":"\n\n
