Diamond Phase - Analog Phaser Pedal.
The Diamond Phase is a modern analog phaser inspired by the original Diamond PSH-1 from 2008, updated with expanded flexibility, improved control, and a compact pedalboard-friendly design. It is built to deliver smooth, musical modulation while preserving the natural tone and dynamics of your instrument.
At its core, the pedal uses a fully analog signal path, designed to maintain warmth, clarity, and organic movement throughout the entire phasing range. The circuit is built around six carefully selected and matched JFETs, ensuring a consistent and highly musical phase response with smooth transitions and stable performance across all settings.
One of the key features of the Diamond Phase is its selectable stage architecture, allowing the user to switch between 2-stage, 4-stage, and 6-stage phasing modes. Each mode offers a distinct tonal character: 2-stage delivers subtle, lightweight motion ideal for enhancing clean tones; 4-stage provides a more traditional phaser sound with noticeable swirl and depth; and 6-stage creates a richer, more immersive and pronounced modulation effect suitable for ambient textures, lead parts, or experimental sound design.
The pedal also includes an enhanced feedback circuit, which expands the harmonic content and resonance of the effect. This allows for a wide range of tones, from smooth and transparent movement to more intense, vocal-like, and resonant sweeps. The feedback control interacts naturally with the rest of the circuit, making it easy to dial in expressive and dynamic modulation without harshness or artificial artifacts.
The Diamond Phase is designed with a strong emphasis on musical interaction and intuitive control. Each parameter responds in a way that encourages performance-based tweaking rather than technical adjustment, meaning small changes can produce meaningful shifts in character. This makes it highly expressive both in studio environments and live performance situations.
Despite its depth and flexibility, the pedal maintains a compact footprint, making it easy to integrate into modern pedalboards where space is limited. It is equally effective as an always-on tone enhancer—adding subtle motion and dimension to a signal—or as a featured modulation effect used for more prominent sonic textures.
