Citadel PLPH Planetary Phase - VCA Phase Shifter (Citadel_PLPH)

Planetary Phase

Planetary Phase is an analog 6-stage phase shifter built on a unique voltage-controlled amplifier topology. It offers the warm, swirling tones of classic phasers, with versatile modulation controls for a wide range of sonic possibilities.

Controls

RATE adjusts the speed of the phaser sweep. Turn the control clockwise for a faster effect.

DEPTH controls the modulation depth, determining how far the sweep travels from the center frequency. A higher setting increases the range of the phaser effect.

OFFSET changes the center frequency around which the phaser sweep oscillates. Turning it counterclockwise creates a deeper, warbly tone, while clockwise results in a brighter, more subtle effect.

RESONANCE controls the intensity of the effect by applying feedback. Higher settings boost the resonant frequencies, creating a more intense effect.

BYPASS MODE can be set to latching (LAT) or momentary (MOM). In momentary mode, the effect is only active while the footswitch is held down. In latching mode, the pedal toggles on and off with each press.

TRUE BYPASS WITH INITIAL STATE SWITCH lets you set the pedal’s startup state using the side switch, determining whether it powers up in bypass or engaged mode.
