Phaseomatic Vacuum Tube Phaser

£369.00 – £455.00

The Phaseomatic Deluxe™ is unique phaser pedal that utilises vacuum tubes and photocells to create rich, lush vibrato and swirling phase-chorused effects with amazing presence and clarity.

“There’s a huge amount of variation in what this effect can do.” – Guitar Buyer Magazine

Brimar box“Brimarize” your pedal! The Phaseomatic can be purchased with either new JJ tubes or grade ‘A’ NOS (New Old Stock) Brimar tubes fitted. JJ tubes are excellent tubes, however the NOS Brimar tubes were manufactured in an era when tube expertise and materials were at their zenith—they’re truly exceptional in terms of quality and reliability. Further, the longer plate construction yields a smoother, fuller tone than modern tubes.

Description

On more subtle settings the Phaseomatic creates a beautiful, natural sounding vibrato (frequency modulation) and shimmering phasing effects, utilising exactly the same one- and two-stage “Cathodyne” tube circuitry used to in those incredible vintage Magnatone® amps. However, the Phaseomatic’s all-tube circuitry has two additional Cathodyne phase inverters, which allow it to generate a much richer, deeper vibrato and even intense, deep “tunnel” phasing as well as a host of cosmic and spacious sound effects heard on many 1950′s “B” science fiction movie soundtracks.

FEATURES

  • All Tube: The Phaseomatic utilises four “Cathodyne” tube phase inverters and photocells to create true vibrato and subtle, shimmering phase-chorused effects—pure tube signal processing operating at real amp plate voltages (300VDC!), just like in a vintage amp!
  • Advanced Mixed-Wave Modulator: Twin LFOs that can generate triangle (linear sweep phasing), sine, pseudo-square (vibe), lopsided and various pulse wave shapes.
  • “Frozen Sweep” Capability: The LFO is capable of super-long, super-slow 1/180Hz (three minutes!) sweep rates to generate rich, complex comb filter effects. If this isn’t slow enough then a constant output mode allows the comb notches to be “frozen” to create hollow sounding acoustic timbres.
  • C.V. Inputs For external control from a voltage source or EV-5 expression pedal for lots of phase modulation possibilities. Frozen notches can be moved up and down. This action can be used in conjunction with the internal LFO of the Phaseomatic for articulate and beautiful sweep effects.
  • ‘Dakaware’ Knobs: Authentic bakelite ‘Dakaware’, Chicago 1510 knobs custom manufactured for Effectrode in the U.S.A using the original 1940s moulds.
  • Rare peach coloured LEDs: Pulsate with modulation speed to mesmerise… or for visual song tempo matching.
  • Includes 12V Wall-wart Power Supply High quality low-noise switched mode 12VDC at 1.5A wall-wart compatible with all our pedals. Accepts 100V to 240VAC mains input and comes with different mains outlet adaptor plugs, so there is always a plug that fits the country that you are playing in.

    Paul Godden (verified owner) 1st April 2020

    Absolutely delighted with my recent purchase of a Phaseomatic Deluxe with Brimar tubes. The pedal produces effortlessly lush, beautiful and utterly sublime sounds on every single note. Coming from the world of VST plugins and digital effects, I’m now a convert to tubes! The build quality is outstanding and this is, hands-down, the best phaser of any type I’ve ever heard. Thank you!!

    • Phil Taylor 1st April 2020

      Hi Paul, Thank you for your comments on the ‘Phaseomatic’ vacuum tube phaser – delighted to hear you are enjoying it as so much work went into creating this all-tube analogue pedal. All the best, Phil

    I just want to let you know how much I am loving my new Effectrode Phaser with Brimar tubes. i have owned almost every type of modulation pedal ever made. The Phaseomatic is the finest I’ve ever played.

    You helped me figure out and visualize what I wanted to achieve sound wise. Indeed the jumper was in sync mode. I was still getting a warble sound (beautiful but not what I was going for this morning) even on the normal toggle switch. So both lights were pulsing out of sync. I wanted them to pulse in sync. Upon re-reading the manual, it dawned on me to hold the tap / sync button and lower the speed to naught and release the button. Success! Both lights pulsed in sync at any speed setting and I got the most lush & gorgeous sounding Phaser I’ve ever heard. I assume this method synced up both LFOs to be in phase. What an outstanding piece of art this is – only to be matched by your most brilliant support! I thank you and Phil most kindly for the super talented work you do! Effectrode is without compare.

    I just wanted to thank you most kindly for the Phaseomatic. It is nothing short of amazing! I’ve only spent a few hours with this beauty and am completely blown away – the very best I have heard. Every position is inspiring and usable. It’s as though the tone is coming from a vinyl record, and I mean this in the best possible way. Positively surreal!

    I wanted to inform you that the PhaseOmatic Deluxe arrived safely here in Colorado. It is an absolutely spectacular phaser. I love it!

  7. Jun Lau - England 30th November -0001

    …other pedals seem to cake your signal with an obvious layer of effect, like its been pasted on top, the Phaseomatic sounds like it’s being integrated into the original signal.

  8. Pete Eime - Australia 30th November -0001

    Your pedal has been the missing pedal in my effects chain. Deep, lush and very organic would best describe it!

  9. Dan Focht - U.S.A. 30th November -0001

    One word: BEAUTIFUL. The ability to morph the wave-shape on the fly allows for creativity in a way that I have never heard or even imagined. Also, the transparency of this pedal is second to none. I will never tire of the available sound palette. In terms of signal/sound quality, usability / tweak-ability, and available tones, this unit outshines everything else I have played through. My phaser search is over. I own a ton of pedals, many of which are more expensive boutique pedals, and I compare having this unit on my pedal-board to having a Ferrari parked next to a line of golf carts. Sure; they will all take you somewhere, but to me, performance is everything. With the Phaseomatic, I got what I paid for and I couldn’t be more satisfied. Next stop: Tube Vibe!

    On a personal note: I want to thank you again for the outstanding service you provided. I have told many of my “jam-mates” about this and all are quite surprised to hear of the help you provided. It is simply not common to receive this type of personal service. My hat is off to you sir. Thank You, Thank You, Thank you!

  10. Daniel Morris - U.S.A. 30th November -0001

    I play pedal steel, having done so for 30+ years, and only started using FX pedals three years ago. The Phaseomatic is my first phase shifter, and I must say I am impressed. This has one superb, warm, clear tone! I see these battles between digital and analog fans, and if all analogue pedals were this beautiful, digital might near extinction! Absolutely excellent! Thank you!

  11. Tom Philips - U.S.A. 30th November -0001

    It is definitely very warm/organic, quiet and preserved my tone perfectly. That really sums up the best pedals right there . . . when they instantly provide creative catalyst, you know they’re amazing!

  12. Martin Kempers - Netherlands 30th November -0001

    This is the most musical phaser I have ever worked with. I’ve been playing for over 40 years now, so I’ve tried the lot of them and never could find THE one, now it seems I have. Usually phasers, by nature, have a tendency to wash away the guitar tone definition. The Phaseomatic does not – wherever the notch is, I get a very subtle, musical, psychedelic addition to my sound.

  13. Daryl Buckley (Elision Ensemble) - Australia 30th November -0001

    I am using the Phaseomatic with slow rate, simple triangle waveform and high resonance and pretty much just the Phaseomatic (no distortion) and the clarity of really rapid passages is great and very tactile… one gorgeous moment in the opera I played in Paris where I have to slowly elicit rich phase tones out of a B sustained by an E-bow on the low 6th string. Its underneath a chorus of five singers undulating and making rich treble bird sounds… the Phaseomatic delivered in spades. Really great.

  14. Sam Lee 1st January 2011

    I recently purchased a Phaseomatic… wonderful pedal! I am so pleased with the way the Phaseomatic sounds with distortion. Keep up the great work!

  15. Vincent Morda - U.S.A. 30th November -0001

    I am absolutely knocked out by your pedals!!! The Phase-O-Matic is just wonderful. I could leave that pedal on all day and just play, even with
    distortion! Thanks Effectrode!!

  16. Jury Kogan (Black Pearl Studios) - Australia 1st September 2011

    We are a studio in Melbourne, Australia and have bought a number of your pedals. As a “turn-key” facility we offer over 450 pedals to our clients and Effectrode were the ones we would always recommend first.

  17. David Greeves (Guitar Buyer Magazine) - Great Britain 1st June 2007

    There’s a huge amount of variation in what this effect can do and the sound is full, lush and spacious with minimal backgound noise.

  18. Joe Caruso - U.S.A. 1st March 2012

    I’ve seen a lot of effects in my time and it’s great to discover product that can still give a seasoned guitar player the chills! And for that I am thankful 🙂 It’s my opinion that a company can’t put out product like this with out complete devotion to the art. It is obvious that this company does. And you can consider me a part of your loyal fan base.

  19. Johnny Wahlfors - U.S.A. 1st May 2012

    I was able to locate and purchase a Deluxe Phaseomatic from Tapestry Music. What a beautiful sounding device. I don’t really like vibe pedals, but phasers have a little hold on me, and the Phaseomatic is just gorgeous in its unassuming manner.

  20. Joe Caruso - U.S.A. 1st May 2012

    The effects you design and build are in (my humble opinion) a class all their own & second to none! Having the Phaseomatic placed in front of my Fender supersonic – it’s like I’ve stacked extra tubes in the amp. It adds fatness and warmth like I have never experienced 🙂 FYI 🙂

  21. Greg Smith - U.S.A. 1st June 2012

    Recently you helped me locate a new Phase-O-Matic, which I purchased from one of your dealers in Texas. I absolutely love it. I have a lot of different phasers that I’ve collected over the years, but none are in the same class as the Phase-O-Matic. I can’t believe how hi-fi it is and how transparent. Even the best of the my other vintage phasers have a slightly processed quality to them, but not yours. It’s also by far the most versatile. Bravo!

  22. Jason Carlton - U.S.A. 1st August 2012

    I have my Phase-O-Matic and Tube-Vibe now and I am so thrilled. Their range is so great, I can really pull so much tone out of them.

  23. Joe Caruso - U.S.A. 1st September 2013

    I really appreciate all you do and am happy to wait – I’m very fond of that particular Phaseomatic the case is in amazing condition for one thing and your phaser effect is my favorite – in fact I’ve never really cared all to much about the phaser as an effect. Other than what Eddie had achieved they never sounded right to me. Yours is so organic and musical I try to use very chance I get. Like all your designs – it jump starts my creativity :-)))

  24. Narayan Marsh (Subciety Records) - U.S.A. 1st September 2013

    Tubes are inconvenient but ALWAYS worth it! I would buy it (Phaseomatic) in stereo anyway even if it was twice as big and expensive! I have the newest version PM-2C serial# 20039 and will NEVER sell it.

  25. Jeff Comeau - U.S.A. 1st September 2014

    Vibralux Chorus next year though! Maybe you’d consider doing a new phaser to go along with the Chorus? That Phaseomatic sounded incredible even on Youtube. With the new Mercury at end of year, my Tube Drive, Tube-Vibe, Blackbird and Compressor… that’s a setup only dreams are made of. Sorry, I love your pedals so much Im just dreaming a bit. I am finally putting together a truly custom cabinet to go with my Hiwatt DR504. KWCabs cabinet with 2 Fane Studio 12L’s. Cant wait to hear the Comp, Tube Drive and Tube Vibe through it. Thanks!

  26. John - U.S.A. 1st May 2015

    In 2012 I bought PM-2C #48 and PC-2A #34 secondhand and later that year preordered Blackbird #88 from you. Thanks for making them, it has been inspiring to use such high quality effects during my sonic journey and education as a player. They will be playing integral roles in an upcoming long-time-coming debut recording project. At least the phaser and compressor; I somewhat regrettably parted with the SR-71 in the summer of 2013 after realizing I wasn’t using it to full potential due to personal preference, so along it went to a good new home.
