Phase Shifter

A phase shifter (or phaser ) is an electronic attempt to imitate the sound they used to put on records in the 60s that was obtained by running an instrument through a rotating speaker cabinet, like the Leslie speaker that came with Hammond B3 organs and weighed more than an SVT bass amp. Leslies are sometimes actually still used, like on the guitar on "Black Hole Sun" by Soundgarden, but are usually only used in the studio because they are so heavy and kinda fragile. A phaser sounds a little like a flanger but is distinctly different.

Usually has two or three knobs : speed, phase, and sometimes volume or tone.

Smashing Pumpkins: Siamese Dream , "Luna" (very subtle). Ivy, "Blame It On Yourself."

Jimmy Eat World, "Sweetness."
