RC505 PHASER EFFECT EXPLAINED [MK1] [MK2]

The phaser effect is a type of audio effect that creates a sweeping, swirling sound by shifting the phase relationship between two or more audio signals. The effect can be found on many audio processors, including the RC505 loop station.

In the RC505, the phaser effect works by splitting the incoming audio signal into two parallel paths. One path is left unprocessed, while the other path is passed through a series of all-pass filters that create phase shifts at certain frequencies. These phase shifts are then mixed back in with the unprocessed signal, creating the characteristic sweeping effect.

The RC505 offers several controls for adjusting the phaser effect, including the rate of the phase shifting, the depth of the effect, and the frequency range over which the effect is applied. These controls allow users to customize the sound of the phaser effect to their liking.

Overall, the phaser effect can be a powerful tool for adding movement and depth to a track or loop, and the RC505 provides a flexible and intuitive way to apply this effect to your recordings.
