Hello, Effects Fans!
Today we announce our new GT 45 phaser module. The GT 45 compares to the MXR Phase 45. MXR released the Phase 45 and Phase 90 pedals in the late 70's. A certain Eddie Van Halen added the P-90 into his tone arsenal, and the P-45 was promptly forgotten. The late 70's turned into the 80's, a time for modulation excess. Lush chorus, flanger, and phaser tones ruled. Since the P-45 is a two-stage phaser and the P-90 is a four-stage phaser, the more subtle P-45 was easy to pass by at the time, especially after EVH's pyrotechnics with the P-90. More subtle modulation has mostly replaced the over-the-top 80's variety. If a P-90 is a bit much, maybe the P-45 or GT 45 is more what you're looking for. It doesn't have the range of lushness as the P-90, definitely no jet swooshes, although it can provide a nice, warm phasing effect when turned up. The GT 45 makes available some extra controls, notably the Depth control, missing on the original pedals. If you want to work in the more subtle range, the GT 45 gives you extra control to dial in exactly the phasing you want. Of course, we also offer the GT-90 if you need to get lush and swooshy.
