Phase Interference Engine for Unpredictable Depth Shifting
Artifact Classification: Federation Experimental Audio Device – Type V
Designation: Phazon Collider
Form: 12HP Eurorack Module, Dual-LFO 6-Stage Phaser with Collision Matrix
Finish: Matte Black with Subharmonic Accents
Maker: Monke of the Northern Quadrant
Operational Philosophy:
Where traditional phasers orbit in gentle repetition, the Phazon Collider rips through the veil with gravitational violence.
It houses two LFO cores — distinct, yet entangled — whose asynchronous oscillations can be driven into destructive interference via the Collider Switch, splitting the six all-pass stages into dual polar hemispheres.
This is not modulation.
This is intermodulation.
Each side modulates its own timeline until the collision begins — resulting in flanged echoes, vortex phasing, and harmonic recursion that cannot be predicted, only witnessed.
Functional Overview:
Normal Mode: All six phasing stages shift in unity, driven by a single LFO
Collider Mode: Stages are split into two independent phasing paths (3+3), each with its own LFO
External LFO Input: Accepts any signal and overrides internal modulation of phasing stages. If in Collide mode the second group of stages will still be driven from internal LFO, this enables dual modulation — each stage cluster responding to its own timeline, resulting in uncoupled phasing and emergent modulation drift.
Zener Clamped Bias Circuitry: Prevents phase singularity
Recursive Feedback Topology: Capable of self-harmonic descent into inverted resonance
Field Deployment Notes:
The Collider responds to external signals like a living organism — calm when observed, erratic when driven. When paired with filtered drones or evolving pads, it produces motion like tectonic plates grinding in reverse.
Phase fades, octave echoes, time-locked harmonics — all may appear during operation. None are guaranteed.
It is not a tool.
It is a temporal disturbance in 12HP.
Usage Advisory:
Recommended for:
Dual-phased spatial modulation
Feedback harmonics and inverted echoes
Chaotic LFO interplay
Long-form ambient drift or violent phase duels
Unrecommended for:
Predictable modulation
Polite stereo widening
Nervous patchers
