Tone Machines Blog: DeArmond Tornado & Twister Phase Shifter (1977 / 1979)

tonemachinesblog.com

The DeArmond Twister Phase Shifter gets a nod for its versatile "Intensity" knob, offering a spectrum of tones from subtle swirls to frenetic flanges. While it does not plunge to the slow depths of its predecessor, the Tornado, the Twister shines with its rapid-fire phasing, perfect for live settings. Its midrange-focused sonic character ensures clarity without muddying the mix, unlike the heftier Tornado. However, inconsistency in units means a cautious approach is wise—requesting internal photos before buying is recommended. For those nostalgic for '70s pedal quirks and unique tones, the Twister is a worthy pursuit.
