Apogee Electronics Clearmountain's Phases Modulation Plug-In Software, Download

Over the decades, the mesmerizing sound of flanging and phasing has left an indelible mark on the music industry, featuring prominently in iconic tracks from artists like Led Zeppelin, Hendrix, David Bowie, and Daft Punk. Clearmountain's Phases Modulation Plug-In Software, a product of Apogee Electronics, brings this classic sound to your digital audio workstation (DAW).

This advanced plug-in software meticulously replicates the vintage flanger and phaser rack modules used by renowned mixing engineer Bob Clearmountain in the mid-seventies. It offers a sophisticated, high-quality emulation of the unique modulation effects that have shaped the sound of influential artists across generations.

Clearmountain's Phases Modulation Plug-In Software is more than just a plug-in; it's a gateway to the past, allowing you to recreate the labor-intensive flanger effect that once required two synchronized tape machines and a wealth of expertise. Now, you can achieve the same captivating sound with the ease of a digital interface, compatible with both Mac and PC/Windows operating systems.

The plug-in provides expanded control settings, including feedback, LFO Phase, high-pass filters, and polarity reverse controls, enabling you to replicate the complex workflows of the original modules without the need for external gear. The true "zero crossing" Tape Flange mode reproduces the dramatic effect of two perfectly flanged tape machines, while the core bucket brigade delay (BBD) chip can be swapped out to explore greater sweep ranges.

The Phaser offers a gentler modulation, ideal for creating the quintessential watery, undulating electric piano sound, psychedelic drum kits, and more extreme textures in combination with the flanger. The Stages knob allows you to reproduce the sonic characteristics of hardware phasers, from stomp box favorites to vintage hardware units to modern plugins.

The Module Config feature lets you apply both flanger and phaser modules to your tracks, creating richer, more extreme textures. You can even recreate the swirling width that moves across the stereo soundstage, as used in the Stones' "Heaven" track and Bowie's "China Girl" recording.

Clearmountain's Phases Modulation Plug-In Software comes with a range of iconic presets, each carefully crafted by Bob Clearmountain himself. Whether you're a seasoned professional or a budding music producer, this innovative plug-in software allows you to easily dial in your own Phases, from mellow to madness, and bring a touch of timeless sound to your music productions.
