Apogee Clearmountain's Phases

The Clearmountain's Phases plugin gives you legendary mix engineer Bob Clearmountain's signature flanger and phaser effects to breathe new life into your tracks. Whether you want to expand your stereo image, add dimension to specific elements or enrich the depth of your overall mix, this versatile plugin provides unparalleled control. Apply the unique "zero-crossing" tape flange and swap bucket-brigade delay chips for extra flexibility. Dial in your desired amount of distortion and aliasing to infuse your sound with grit and character.

Distinct Flanger and Phaser Processors

Clearmountain's Phases offers separate flanger and phaser processors, each with its own distinct character. The flanger creates dramatic, sweeping effects reminiscent of classic tape flanging techniques. The phaser provides subtler modulation ideal for crafting psychedelic textures on instruments like electric piano.

Vintage Analog Sound in a Digital Plugin

Clearmountain's Phases not only gives you control over manual sweep, sweep oscillator and mix but also lets you apply the "zero-crossing" tape flange effect and swap bucket-brigade delay chips. Add grit by dialing in your preferred amount of distortion and aliasing.

Feedback, LFO and Vintage Analog Magic

The phaser offers gentle modulation that Clearmountain uses to produce watery, psychedelic textures. Increase the effect with extra resonance, then adjust the Feedback Tap knob for more sonic variations. Turn back the clock with the Age trimpot to recreate the mellowing effects of aging hardware.

Sonic Imagination Unbound

When Clearmountain wanted to craft a richer, more extreme texture, he would send tracks through both the flanger and phaser. Capturing the sound of Clearmountain's rare 1970s hardware, Clearmountain's Phases gives you his signature tone-shaping tools. If you want to breathe new life into your mixes with depth and dimension, this plugin belongs in your digital toolkit.
