A small blue box with a single potentiomtre rgler for speed, a switch to turn the effect on a mono output and a red LED indicating activation, while analog.

USE

Unless remove potentiomtre, simpler, there is none!
The manual provides three examples
- About 1.5 for 'phasing Subtle stamp to make your solo thick and smooth distortion in sound'
- 4 for 'best sound for phasing 60' beat rhythm play '
- About 6.5 for 'phasing Blues to add to overdriven sound'

SOUND QUALITY

Used with a strat sound is just beautiful.
As there is no potentiomtre volume of the effect, (I plug between the guitar and the amp), MAXON very well tag it is both pr feels DISCRT, clear and very colorful.
In addition we acknowledge my strat!
In its clean sound is absolutely charming in drive the effect is more Introduced more psych but still everything grable.
As against this phaser is East 'vintage', that is to say that mdiums find themselves more prononcs.
Unlike the MXR 90, it does not saturate phaser.

A small shadow presents is that if you turn the speed rglage button while the sound is active, the effect it was going o o we just put, there are going to gradually accelerates the speed does not, has changed suddenly.
It seems to me (vrifier) ​​the MXR 90 changes in real time the speed curve.
Regarding the speed (Speed ​​range: 0.2 Hz - 14 Hz), this Maxon turns slightly slower than the MXR 90.

NOTICE GLOBAL

When shopping, I hesitated with the MXR-90, I think, is he much (too much?) Introduced. I found a little too pronounced or the limit of the 'gadget'.
MAXON is really clear.
For 145 without battery, I do not know if I do it again this choice I regret no way but after about 10 months of use, I think it is better to invest in a mod with the advantage of rglages.
MAXON is really a very good reference number, especially in sound quality.
