DOD Phasor 201

The Phasor 201 is DOD's update of its own two-stage analog phaser, a design that has been in the catalog for over forty years. Two stages means a subtle sweep rather than a swirling one, which is why it holds up under distortion as well as it does on a clean amp - the effect moves the tone without smearing it.

There is one knob. Speed sets both the rate and the depth of the sweep, and a footswitch turns it on. The reissue moves to a lightweight aluminium chassis, adds true bypass, a modern power jack and a blue status LED, and keeps the original circuit with updated components. Input and output are 1/4-inch instrument jacks, power is a 9V alkaline battery or an optional PS0913DC supply, and it measures 4.68 x 2.63 x 2.25 inches.
