Description
Vintage, vibe voiced, four stage phaser with two independent LFOs.
The heart of the Fly Agaric is two independent speed controls. These individual controls, matched with a direction altering footswitch, allow for a wide range of textural cross-phasing.
We recommend setting the first knob somewhere from 7 to 11 'o' clock, and the second knob from 11 to 2 'o' clock to get thick vibe-like cross phasing, and offer the most range out of the Heart (left) footswitch.
Things get weird with the Fly Agaric, and it's all so beautiful.
Jacks: In on the right, Out on the left.
Knobs: Left Knob: Controls the speed of the first LFO. Right Knob: Controls the speed of the second LFO. This knob also has a huge effect on the overall throb of the pedal. Left of noon, slower, the deep phasing is much more reduced and the pedal sounds more like a classic phaser, and the left side knob has more effect on the overall speed of the pedal. Right of noon, the speed and depth increase giving the whole pedal a more pulsing vibe like sound.
Footswitches Left Footswitch (heart): Mirror switches the speed of the first LFO. When the left heart switch is engaged (light on) the speed of the first LFO will immediately flip. This switch is handy for creating textural cross-phasing on the fly. Right Footswitch: Engages Pedal
Each pedal is hand stamped and the pedal you receive may differ slightly from the one pictured.
Assembled in Casco Maine with carefully hand matched transistors.
This is the first production release of the Fly Agaric Phaser. We have been slowly releasing very small batch, hand wired versions over the last year in order to crowd-source feedback. This pedal is the culmination of the larger big box versions that are now floating around.
Industry standard 9vlt jack, no wall wart included, no battery option, isolated power recommended.
