The phased bass line is shown below after being
recorded to a separate track. The effect of TL Ev-
eryPhase triggered by the drum loop can be seen
in the resulting waveform.
Adding Other Effects
For different phaser sounds, try using a com-
pressor before or after TL EveryPhase. Other use-
ful effect plug-ins to try with TL EveryPhase in-
clude distortion, delay, and EQ.
Tweaking TL EveryPhase
Can’t get the perfect phaser sound? Try some of
these ideas!
• Try a preset. TL EveryPhase includes over
120 presets in eight categories. The catego-
ries are merely suggestions—a preset cre-
ated for guitar may have just the sound you
need for vocals.
• Adjust the Depth. Setting Depth to positive
or negative values allows for two separate
types of phasing to occur. When Depth is
positive, the phaser notches occur at fre-
quencies that are at opposite phase, which
is a common feature of many analog
phasers. When Depth is negative, the
notches occur at frequencies that have
identical phase. Flipping the Depth from
positive to negative or vice versa can have a
dramatic impact on the sound.
• Change the Resonance. If you want to
modify the ‘singing’ tones created by high
FeedBack settings, try adjusting the Reso-
nance control. By default, the Resonance
slider is set to ‘Norm’ which is equal to the
current Stages setting. For example, when
using TL EveryPhase with Stages set to 10,
setting the Resonance slider at 2, 4, 6, or 8
stages will provide a reduced feedback
tone. Likewise, to increase feedback tones,
set the Resonance slider to a higher setting.
• Some LFO shapes may create transients or
‘blips’ in the phased sound. This is espe-
cially common with the Ramp and Square
Wave LFO shapes. To reduce the transient,
reduce the FeedBack and Stages settings.
Resulting phased bass line
On versions of Pro Tools prior to 7.0, RTAS
plug-ins do not provide side-chain process-
ing when used on TDM systems. Use the
TDM version of TL EveryPhase if you re-
quire side-chain processing on a TDM sys-
tem.
For more information on using the Side-
Chain Input, see the Pro Tools Reference
Guide.
