Complexity: Simple
Interface: 5/5
An easier pedal does not exist.
Versatility: 1/5
The phase 90 does one thing, albeit very well
Clarity of Effect: 3.5/5
Although the phase does not charge through the speakers, it is always perceptible and pretty. The one real shortfall is its inability to change the intensity of the effect. That could potentially add to the effect’s ability to be heard. That being said, you should buy this pedal and put it on your board.
Live application: 5/5
Great for any live setup. This will give you the perfect phase with an easy one-knob speed altering mechanism. You can even use it to a slight edge and fatness to your sound.
