This looks well beyond what I would ever need. I like pedals I have to calm down rather than wishing they could do more. Therefore, byebye money.

| | | | Isn't that essentially a Pigtronix EP-1 with tap tempo? :< |

| | | | Wowza that's one highly specified Phaser pedal. |

This one only goes up to 4-stage, and I have no use for 2-stage. |

I hate Empress.
I'd like a well rounded pedal board that has a few different manufacturers represented, not a monument to monopoly. Let's see, when I'm rich:
Empress Phaser
Empress Tap Tremolo
Empress Vintage Modified Superdelay
Empress ParaEq
Sod it, may as well...
Empress Midibox  never gonna happen

Anybody know why so many phaser pedals are painted green? And why so many chorus pedals are painted blue? I've been wondering why this is for a little while now.

You have one week SubDecay. | I think the Quasar Deluxe WILL be less money. At $350 you're really only talking about the Toadworks Phantasm and the Mad Professor Tiny Orange Phaser as competition at the price point.
I'm not a huge fan of 2 stage phasing and I like 8 stagers better than 4 (though 6 seems to be my favorite) so I'd lean toward the Subdecay except that envelope phasing is just so cool sounding. I love that they both do stepped phasing, a feature I've always dug.
I've settled on a phaser for my board (in the end I just need something simple that gets the tone in my head without a million bells and whistles) but I will no doubt try both of these phasers out because I'm deranged that way and can't help myself.
