A DEDICATED FAN of classic phase shifter tones could easily spend a small fortune acquiring a decent collection of vintage pedals, reissues or boutique clones. Strymon offers a much more sensible and affordable solution with their new Zelzah Multidimensional Phaser, which provides separate four-stage (a la the Electro-Harmonix Small Stone, MXR Phase 90, Boss PH-1 and more) and six-stage (a la the Maestro PS-1A, Electro-Harmonix Bad Stone, Mu-Tron Phasor II and more) phase shifters that can be used individually or combined to produce a multitude of phase shifter sounds as well as flanging and chorus effects. Whether you’re looking to replicate a beloved phase effect (or a bunch of them) or seeking your own individual sounds, the Strymon Zelzah is a powerful pedal that offers incredible creative versatility.
