In my messing around with phase…
It has produced interesting sound design results…that is insanely hard to mix.
Im not just talking about slapping a phaser effect on a bass.
Putting an lfo to modulate the phase of an fm oscillator…or an envelope to enhances warbling of synth…
Inverting the phase…
Delibrate phase cancelation
Phase distortion
Phase for phatness…
Phase is like the the blender, the cleaner, the spacer, etc…messing with the phase of an audio signal produces many different results…imo
Phase its not just a phase.
