D16's Fazortan is also very nice, not as 'real' as the softube but still very thick and creamy, despite being a bit older (and luckily, not nearly as CPU intensive). For my money these are the two creamiest and thickest and I've tried virtually every analog-style VST phaser. The Yamaha vintage pack phasers are also fairly nice but the emulations are a bit slavish for my taste (no dry/wet control?)The Chase wrote:+1. I consider it one of the very few remaining categories where a significant gap remains between analog and digital. Especially with phasers. Weirdly enough I think software does a really good job with chorus, but big unsubtle flanger/phaser sounds struggle.ChamomileShark wrote:I've also been a bit disappointed with software chorus, flangers and phasers
I like how a good analog phaser doesn't require a bunch of stages or feedback to get a good sound; you get a real full creamy sound from 4 or even 2 stages with a touch of feedback. Most software I find myself cranking it to 8 or 12 for a good sound. Not the same.
And oh yeah, despite being ancient, PhaseMistress can sound fairly thick and lush at low stages but it has a fairly small sweetspot, you need the right combination of polarity settings, feedback, center freq, res stages and phase stages, otherwise it sounds very small and tinny like most of the presets.
I haven't tried the softube one, I won't demo it atm as I'm stopping buying things for a while - but have you tried admiral qualitys stunning phaser? Such a good effect and sound very real as well.

What hardware do you think is better than plug ins? Genuine question as I am looking to get some (a decent flanger particularly). I will definitely be checking out these:Russell Grand wrote:It's true, modulator plugs just don't cut it compared to hardware.ChamomileShark wrote:I've also been a bit disappointed with software chorus, flangers and phasers (although hardware phasers vary alot) - I suspect that's because I've got hardware versions and somehow they don't sound the same.

Boss BF-2 is my favorite as well. It has 3 or 4 internal trimpots that can take it from well-mannered to truly deranged. It's one of the few modulation pedals I've used that doesn't kill a bass guitar's punch.
MXR Flanger is key to the classic Eddie Van Halen guitar sound, and the A/DA Flanger is a good one too.

Yeah, um... i'm with this guy ^bbtr wrote:Again, they would destroy the criterion by reasoning of this kind. Even the criterion has either been critically determined or not. If it has not, it is definitely untrustworthy, and in its purpose of distinguishing is no more true than false. If it has, it will belong to the class of particular judgements, so that one and the same thing determines and is determined, and the criterion which has determined will have to be determined by another, that other by another, and so on ad infinitum. [95] In addition to this there is disagreement as to the criterion, some holding that man is the criterion, while for some it is the senses, for others reason, for others the apprehensive presentation. Now man disagrees with man and with himself, as is shown by differences of laws and customs. The senses deceive, and reason says different things. Finally, the apprehensive presentation is judged by the mind, and the mind itself changes in various ways. Hence the criterion is unknowable, and consequently truth also.midi_transmission wrote:Maybe my judgement is wrong?

I like Ubermod, mainly because it's so flexible and can seamlessly go from delay to chorus to flanger to reverb to weird hellscape and back without problems.
I just wish there was some kind of "2TapInPhase" mode or something. It would be really useful for flangers actually.

True, I've gotten crazy results on drums. My current favorite flanger plugin is Valhalla Space Modulator.

I remember years ago i tried MetaFlanger (think that is the name?) from Waves and i thought it sounded quite good.
