The Ibanez PH Mini is a compact analog phaser from the Made-in-Japan Mini Series. It produces a warm, smooth phase sweep with a rounded midrange character rather than a sharp, pronounced notch, sitting closer to a subtle shimmer than an aggressive swirl at moderate settings and becoming a deeper, more liquid modulation as the rate is raised. Rate and Depth controls keep operation simple, and the all-analog signal path and small footprint suit crowded pedalboards.
The Source Audio Lunar Phaser is a multi-engine phaser from Source Audio (Boston, Massachusetts), delivering multiple phaser voicings including vintage 2-stage, 4-stage, 8-stage, and resonant phaser modes with MIDI control and app programmability. The Lunar Phaser provides the widest phaser palette from Source Audio for comprehensive phase from subtle shimmer to deep pulsing swirl.
