Structure
Fazortan 2 starts off with two big, friendly LFO Rate knobs, coupled with a Waveform window and a depth knob. Unlike its hardware cousin, Fazortan 2’s LFOs have multiple waveform modes: triangular (like the original), sinusoidal, hyper-triangular and random.
Using both LFOs simultaneously opens new dimensional soundscapes that hardware users could only dream of.
Endless contour diversity catapults source material from sluggish, monotonous swings to gurgling scrumbles*, just by slight tweaks of the rate knob. It’s also now possible to add consecutive all-pass stages as well as to regulate the feedback effect.
The feedback knob gives you sounds from soft pulses, rapid warbles and drilling insanity. To visually display how it works, consider white noise as an input signal.
Moving the feedback knob will start to morph it into oncoming "sea waves” and cosmic wind. Additionally, each LFO can be modified by altering its respective phase for lush, wide imaging.
* ”scrumbles” is our onomatopoeic attempt at writing what this sounds like. Don’t judge us until you’ve grabbed a demo and tried describing it yourself.
Who wants some?
The best way to judge Fazortan 2 is to listen to it: you're welcome to check out our audio demos. We made every effort to ensure Fazortan would fulfill all the expectations one could have in an analog unit, plus a few tasty virtual extras.
Guitarists, keyboardists and vintage synth aficionados will appreciate its adjustable emulation of a rotary speaker, and this coupled with its rich, lush sound, completes a satisfying signal chain.
Of course, given its dense tweakability, it makes a fine FX module adaptable to any genre.
