Mu-Tron Bi-Phase
Mu Tron · pedal
The Mu-Tron Bi-Phase is a dual-channel analog phase shifter built around two independent Sweep Generator sections, letting players run two phasing effects simultaneously or blend them for complex, layered modulation beyond what a single-stage phaser can produce. Its dual-oscillator design creates a deep, swirling, three-dimensional phase-shift character, from subtle, slow movement to dramatic, sweeping swirl when the two sections interact. It suits players and studio users wanting rich, elaborate, vintage analog phasing with more depth and control than a standard single-knob phaser offers.
