Sound
basically the polyphase is a 6-stages phaser working with 2 particular main modes:

driven by EG following process
First mode uses the internal LFO for a really sweepy and marvelous spatial sound very harmonic and a present EQ, and best of all, it doe not eat up all the sound bandwidth. The Envelope EG mode is gated by guitar peak and retrig the amount of phasing.

- Feedback adjusts the resonance balancing between a more pronounced sound and dry
