Project overview
The Master Phaser is a modern approach to the 70’s Stage Phaser by Maestro. Ready to build using OTA LM13700 instead of the unobtainable CA3094.
This board also features the possibility of turning the Phaser into something closer to an Univibe.
Introduction
The Master Phaser is a faithful approach to the original Stage Phaser by Maestro without being strictly a clone.
First, we replace the obsolete CA3094 chips with the most common and Inexpensive LM13700 in its place. Since each LM13700 has two transducers on it, we can choose through the mode toggle to use 5 or 6 phase stages.
Controls
Speed: Sets the rate of the phase sweep from slow to fast.
Balls: Sets the amount of feedback (phase output fed back to phase input).
Pot2: Sets the maximum depth of the LFO.
This is a really nice pedal. It does exactly what it says. Has a great amount of range even with just the two knobs. The toggle gives you a bit more depth when in the down position. Very expressive, great control and a lovely balanced phaser sound the entire sweep. Can set it from a dreamy, subtle roll to a speedy, almost Leslie like sound at the other extreme. Socketed C5, C6. C7 and C8 and the suggested mod works great. Not quite Uni-Vibe but leaning in that direction and gives a more expressive Phaser sound. I left the C7 as 1nf (film) and it sounds nice. Very cool build.
