Phaser Factory vs Surreal Machines Diffuse

GSi Phaser Factory is a versatile phase shifter effect in the likes of some famous guitar pedals such as the Phase 90, the Small Stone, and stuff like that. With Phaser Factory you can create your own phaser and even try to "clone" an existing model. Select the number of phase shifting stages, from 1 up to 20! Set the LFO width and offset. Configure the feedback chain, the output mix and the summing stages. The algorithm is simple and efficient, once you get the perfect vibe, save your presets. And if you're a plugin developer, you can even export a C++ Class that you can use in your project to play the exact preset you've created in Phaser Factory. Phaser Factory is not only a phaser, it's all of them.

Diffuse is inspired by classic hardware delay and reverb effects from the 1970’s and 1980’s. It takes a Surreal Machines look at the frontier between delays and reverbs. It's an analog/digital hybrid - an analog modeled delay fused with a classic reverb design used in early digital units. In Diffuse you get more than the best of both worlds - you can morph between delays and reverbs, and find all kinds of fantastical sounds in between the two. You’ll also find plenty of nonlinearities and smooth tape-style delay changes. Diffuse gives you complete control over smearing, echoes and damping in the most intuitive ways possible. ****** Diffuse is an Audio Unit V3 plugin; it benefits from an AUV3 host like Logic, GarageBand, Cubasis, FL Studio Mobile, AUM, etc.
