The phaser is simply inserted in the audio path like
this. For modulation sources, you could use, for
instance, any of the following:

P

With the last two of these alternative modula-
tors particularly, you can optionally use an
A-170 Slew Limiter after them, to smooth out
sudden jumps of control voltage, and make
the phasing transitions less abrupt.

"Stereo"-Phasing

Using two A-125s and the patch in Fig. 4 you can
create a wide pseudo-stereo phasing effect, with inver-
ted signals coming out of each of the two audio
channels (Out

L

und Out

R

).

Typically, you can use a slow LFO to provide the
modulation for the phase shift, but any other modulator
will work, as with standard phasing. Phaser VCP 1 is
fed the modulation from the LFO directly, while an
A-175 voltage inverter is patched in before the second
phaser VCP 2, to invert the modulation.
