signal. Recall that Phasor A always receives the input signal when the plug-in is used in a mono context. The

input switch works as follows:

If the switch is set to

IN A, Phasor B receives the same signal that Phasor A receives. Phasor B’s

output is mixed with Phasor A’s output, and the mixed signal is sent out of the plug-in’s output. This

configuration is not available in the Bi-Phase alone, and would require an external hardware mixer to
add the two phase-shifted signals together.

If the switch is set to

OUT A, Phasor B receives its signal from the output of Phasor A. The two phase

shifters are connected in series. The output of Phasor B is sent out the plug-in’s output. The Bi-Phase
manual describes this configuration as “the normal setting for using the Bi-Phase with one instrument

and one amplifier.”

If the switch is set to

IN B, Phasor B doesn’t receive a signal at all and is effectively disconnected. Use

this setting if you need a more subtle effect than that produced by combining both phase shifters.

To set the position of this switch with your mouse, simply click near the control’s left side, center, or right

side. It is not necessary to click and drag with the mouse pointer to rotate the control.

If Phasor A and Phasor B are being swept by the same source (either Sweep Generator 1 or the Sweep

Control), the switch reverses the sweep direction of Phasor B with respect to Phasor A. That is, if the

SYNC

switch is set to

REV, you will hear Phasor A sweeping upward in frequency while Phasor B sweeps downward

in frequency, and vice versa. If the

SYNC switch is set to NORM, the two phase shifters will move in the

same direction. This switch’s effect is most pleasing when PhaseTwo is used in a stereo context, since it

makes the two output channels sweep in opposite directions. (Try it when listening with headphones. Ooh,

trippy, man.)

To set the position of this switch with your mouse, simply click near the control’s left side, center, or right

side. It is not necessary to click and drag with the mouse pointer to rotate the control.

The

SWEEP switch works the same way as Phasor A’s SWEEP switch (see #8 above), but also lets

you choose Sweep Generator 2 as the sweep controller for Phasor B. If you set the two

SWEEP switches to
