D16 Group Fazortan - Electronic Delivery

Product Description

The D16 Group Fazortan is a controllable space phaser that is a part of D16's SilverLine Collection. Total control of the Phase shift parameter provides you with adjustability and allows to obtain the desired contour with high precision. Thanks to their analog modeling technique, D16 were able to implement all-pass filters comprising characteristics identical to its analog counterpart based on Operational Transconductance Amplifiers.

Think of Fazortan as of the exact copy of a retro phaser taken from the 70s and redone as a virtual unit. Bearing in mind only that one Rate knob and a color switch were included on the front panel of the original phaser device, Fazortan is a completely new device that effectively expands capabilities of the original.

Structure

Full control over two LFOs (waveform, rate, depth and offset) are now available. Unlike in the hardware unit Fazortan's LFO works in a various waveform modes: square, sinus, ascending saw, descending saw and random (i.e. only triangle is available in original).

By using both LFOs simultaneously you're now able to obtain result that only owners of the hardware box could only dream about. Endless contour diversity stretches result from monotonous sluggish swing to become a gurgling scramble, just by a slight repositioning of the the rate knob. Additionally it is now possible to add consecutive all-pass stages as well as regulate the feedback effect. The amount of stages translates to how many humps and pits residues in the converted sound spectrum while feedback parameter value implies severity of these irregularities. The feedback knob gives you sounds from soft to rapid and drilling. To visually display how it works consider white noise as an input signal. Moving the feedback knob will start to morph incoming "sea waves" reminiscent noise into "windy" whizz. Additionally each LFO can be modified by altering its respective phase giving as a result an improved panning of the incoming signal.
