How it slushes

Slowly move a dial
and find your slush

Most phasers come loaded with controls you don't need for slushwave. Usually, getting a slush means fiddling with a barberpole phaser until you land on a ‘vibe’. SLUSH3R makes that painless. SLOWLY turn the rate up or down and you'll hear the slush right away. Match it to the tempo by ear and you've taken the first step towards a track lost between a memory and a dream.

Two
sweeps

Sweep 1 / Big slush
The main knob. Turn RATE right and it slushes up, turn it left and it slushes down. It sets how fast the comb slides and which way it goes. Start near the middle of the dial for the slowest crawl. Honestly, the best way to get it is to just play with it!

Sweep 2 / Surgical slush
A second, ‘surgical’ sweep locked to a two-octave band and played from the pad. Left and right move the band anywhere from 40 Hz to 16 kHz. Up and down set its resonance. SPEED sets how fast it slides and MIX sets how loud it is. Run it alongside Sweep 1 or on its own to slush just one part of the spectrum. Super fun to experiment with!

Unlike most barberpole phasers, SLUSH3R shows both sweeps live on its display, so you can see exactly what's going on and stay in the flow. The teal trace is Sweep 1 rolling across the whole spectrum. The orange band is where Sweep 2 is working, so you can slush just the highs or just the mids for something different. Teal and orange carry through the knobs, the traces and the readout, so you always know which one you're hearing.
