MXR: P95 (which lives in the P45 setting)
That settings great, they really killed it with that pedal!
Agreed! My 3rd pedal ever was a P45, which was my first non distortion/fuzz pedal. I really love the subtle phasing.

I enjoy my MXR Phase 45 (Script) as well. My brother has that fancy MXR "1974 Vintage Phase 90" and it sounds ... well, just how everyone thinks a phaser should sound. Definitely good. But the Phase 45 is special!

I got my arion in. It is snazzy If you manage to get the trim pots in the right spot I find the basic sound is same as PH-1R, the LFO shape and everything, except the resonance is different, a little more formant vocal like on the arion. I also enjoy hearing the stereo output on its own for a more univibe like character.
I don't have a PH-1R anymore, but I think the Arion has a certain sound on its own. Maybe that's because I did a complete recap on my unit? Some electrolytic capacitors inside are really tiny (especially those with the low value of 0.1µF and 0.22µF) and I doubt that they are fully working these days.
