Title: Sound of phase 45 VS phase 90?
Post by: Leftrights on January 22, 2004, 04:19:32 AM

Back in the day I had a MXR phase 90. It was my girlfreinds fathers originally, so if I had to guess, I'd say it was from the seventys. The reason I tell you all this is that I loved it. I used it all the time before a rogue bass player stole it from me. (damn them :!: :!: )

So I've been looking at building something close to it to try to capture that sound or something close.

So does anyone know: is the phase 45 simler? Does anyone know what the differences might be between the two? Any schematics for the phase 90?

Thanks for any input. :? I'd love to get that sound back.

Twice the stages for the Phase 90, though some like the 45 better.

I like the Phase 45. Simpler to build, but still has a reasonably strong phaser sound. Some people say it's very subtle, but with well-matched fets mine give plenty of zoom and whoosh. For a really deep whoosh a flanger might be better than a phaser, anyway.

The phase 45 is definately a good pedal.
