VINTAGE PHASER VP1
Authentic Vintage-Style Phase Shifter
Thank you for showing your condence in us by purchasing the BEHRINGER VINTAGE PHASER VP1.
This high-quality eect pedal is designed for all musicians who want to their sound some extra pep.
Thanks to its high-performance features you get authentic and classic three dimensional phase
shifting—from rapid rotary speaker to impressive jet plane eects.
With the phaser, a second, phase-shifted signal is added to the original audio signal. The resulting sound
is thicker and above all livelier. This eect is often used for guitar sounds and keyboards. In the ’70s,
it was also extensively used for other instruments like electric pianos.
1. Controls
(1) The RATE control determines the speed of the phase shifting eect.
(2) The TONE switch lets you chose between negative feedback (lower position) or positive feedback
(upper position) phaser modes. Negative feedback means that the delayed signal is inverted before it
is fed back to the original signal. In positive feedback mode the delayed signal is not inverted. In this
case the eect has a more detuned character enabling to use the unit as vibrato eect for example.
(3) The STATUS LED illuminates when the eect is activated.
(4) Use the footswitch to activate/deactivate the eect.
(5) Use this ¼" TS INPUT connector to plug in the instrument cable.
(6) The ¼" TS OUTPUT connector sends the signal to your amp.
Use the DC IN connection at the front of the unit to plug in a 9 V power supply (not included).
The BATTERY COMPARTMENT is located on the bottom. Open the lid to install or replace the 9 V battery.
◊ The VP1 has no on/o switch. As soon as you insert the jack into the in connector,
the VP1 begins running. When not using the VP1, remove the jack from the in connector.
This extends the life of the battery.
The SERIAL NUMBER is located on the bottom.
