PsyPhaseThree
A stereo phaser with real depth.
From a gentle four-stage swirl to twenty-four stages of deep, combed motion. Feed back around the whole chain, inside each pair of stages, or any blend of the two, and detune the channels to open up the stereo field. The display shows where the notches are as they move.
More than one kind of swirl.
4 to 24
Add stages in pairs, and spread their frequencies across up to four octaves.
Global and local
Around the whole chain, inside each pair, or a blend. Each with its own polarity.
Soft saturation
A little drive inside each stage pair. Clean at zero, thick when fed back.
Free or synced
Sine, triangle or square, twenty tempo divisions, and a stereo phase offset between the channels.

Pre-release installers are not yet code-signed with a Windows certificate, so SmartScreen may say it “prevented an unrecognized app from starting”. Choose More info, then Run anyway. Release builds will be signed.
In PowerShell, Get-FileHash .\PsyPhaseThree-1.0.0-beta-20261008-1647.exe should print the SHA-256 above. The signature file carries the same hash, signed with the MadPsy key that signs every plug-in’s content.
Bugs, crashes and ideas all help: say which host you use and what you were doing. Contact us, or join the feedback list and we will ask now and then.
