Free The Tone Free The Tone PHV-1 Phase Inverter

Presenting the Free The Tone PHV-1 Phase Inverter. The Free The Tone PHV-1 inverts the signal phase of an effects unit or amplifier. It inverts the input signal’s phase from in-phase to out-of-phase or out-of-phase to in-phase. When putting together a complex board with a variety of pedals It is very important to create an environment in which you can manipulate the signal phase. By controlling whether a signal is in-phase or out-of-phase, your tonal palette becomes richer and broader. For example, many wah-wah pedals, compressors, boosters, etc. with conventional circuits have outputs whose signal phase is inverted and these products use the out-of-phase characteristics as part of their sound. On the other hand you sometimes can get better results by flipping this out-of-phase output to in-phase. Since there is always a phase interference when sounds overlap each other, it is important to test whether being in-phase or out-of-phase can yield a better result. When troubleshooting your rig, the ability to flip the phase can be especially useful, especially for bassists who play with a kick drum sound as their reference.
