Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement.

The DOD Phasor 201 is a classic two-stage analog phaser pedal originally produced by DOD Electronics in 1976, delivering simple, musical phase shifting with a single Speed control. The two-stage design produces a subtle, focused phase notch sweep suited for gentle, musical phasing. One of the earliest mass-produced phase shifters, the DOD 201 influenced the development of phaser pedals across the industry.
The Movall MP-301 Van Golem is a budget analogue mini phaser offering more control than a typical one-knob vintage-style phase pedal. Alongside Speed it adds Width and Feedback, so the sweep runs from a subtle, slow shimmer adding gentle movement to a lead tone, through to deep, watery, resonant phase sweeps that swirl broadly across clean chords. Raising the feedback sharpens the notches for a more vocal, resonant and pronounced effect. Built into a small but weighty aluminium-alloy enclosure with a slip-resistant base, true bypass and an LED status indicator, running on 9V DC centre-negative. An accessible way to get flexible analogue phase movement in a very small pedalboard footprint.
