Tap tempo
Tap at least 2 times

The tap tempo is engaged once a tempo is tapped in with
at least 2 taps. This causes the high rate light to turn on.
When the slow rate knob is moved, the tap tempo turns off.

Introduction to the Keeley Phaser
First of all, thank you for pur-
chasing a Keeley Electronics 6
stage Phaser. We have worked
hard to make a phaser with a
vintage sound without sacrific-
ing the conveniences of more
modern pedals. This is an
analog pedal. The only
hybrid-digital circuitry we use
in it controls the flow of the
analog signal. But your guitar
tone is never sampled and
remains 100% analog
throughout the pedal.

When switching, old light
stays on until ramp is done.
Although the rate knobs are labeled fast and slow, they are
identical. The labeling was designed to give the knobs more
meaning than a simple number.
Slow on the ramp means the switch between rates takes longer

What is an edge knob anyway?
Sometimes when working on an effect,
there are controls that really do great
things to the sound of your guitar but
don't really conform to the traditional
labels. Should we discriminate against
these controls? Should we call them
what they are not? We say no!
Our edge knob is two things...
One part depth control, changing the
phase from a more subtle effect, to one
that is full out spacey as the knob
moves clockwise.
The other part is envelope filter,
changing where the signal is phased the
hardest. At the farthest setting clock-
wise, your highs are most enhanced.
When turned fully counter-clock, the
low end of your phaser gets the boost .

The ramp is set to be a fairly quick change
between the fast and slow. The Fast
control will yield an almost organ like
sound. The slow is a very nice subtle
phase effect. We tried it after our 4-knob
compressor and it sounded great!

These settings feature a more agressive
fast rate, a longer ramp time and beefed
up edge. Great response from that ramp.
Use it often!
