I love a good phaser effect, don’t you? It can add subtlety, or depth, or get into out-of-this-world modulation territory, letting you express yourself and experiment with your music in so many different ways. Today, we’re taking a look at a reimagining of a vintage classic, with the Warm Audio Mutation Phasor II. This nod to one of the most recognized phaser units in history looks and sounds amazing, so let’s dive in and see what it’s all about…

The Mutation Phasor II is an accurate recreation of one of the most desirable, 100% analog phaser circuits made famous in the experimental era of the 1970s. This unit has all of the vintage vibes of the original phaser pedal allowing you to add depth, wobble, swirl, or “instant funk” to guitar, keys, bass, or anything you can dream of. This electro-optical phase-shifting pedal is built with a true-to-spec recreation of the 70s circuit using premium components.
Adding the Mutation Phasor II to your rig is like adding a new instrument. Fine-tuning the depth of the modulation just right and timing the speed to sync perfectly with the tune takes you back to old-school gigging and recording. For those looking for a truly unique phaser experience, send the phase shifts into overdrive by dialing up the feedback, emphasizing the “wooshes” of the pedal.
True to the original pedal, Mutation Phasor II delivers all the rich depth and instant psychedelic tones, favored by innovative musicians and producers like Billy Corgan, Tom Bukovac, Robin Trower, and many more. It’s built with premium components including classic RC4558P op-amps, vintage-style diodes, carbon resistors, and film caps, and housed in an ultra-tough, vintage-vibe steel case.Altogether, the Mutation Phasor II is not just a pedal, but more of a tone-shaping experience.
Bold, slight, massive, swirling, subtle, powerful, fun – these are just a handful of adjectives you can use to describe the Mutation Phasor II. With just the three knobs, you can dial in an amazing sound in seconds, and then spend hours getting the perfect settings to fit your specific setup. We dive deep in our demo video below, exploring all this one can do, and even mixing in some other effects to show how it might sound when paired up with other effects.
