Re-thinking the "phaser"

Conventional phasers work in the time domain, using phase shifts and tiny delays to create a handful of notches (usually 12 or 24 at most)

UZU flips the model. It operates in the frequency domain using an FFT (Fast Fourier Transform), allowing up to 8192 notches, a scale traditional phasers simply can’t reach. This way, notches are sharp, bubbly and are just how we think phasers should sound

Features

  • 1: Distance between each spectral notch
  • 2: Main Phase-offset of the filter shape
  • 3: Add sharpness and depth to each notch
  • 4: Automatic offset-control speed
  • 5: Overall mix of the plugin
  • 6: Rounds spectral bins for rhythmic "pulses"
  • 7: Weighs the filter to either HZ or LOG
  • 8: Speed and offset 5x multiplier
  • 9: Preserves low-end frequencies under 250hz
  • 10: Change the spectral-engine's blocksize

"Great for messy bass-design and fills; even sounds nice as a static phaser. Does a pretty great job at filling in a similar space to harmor's phaser, but without forcing you to fork up $150"
