Hello.
Recently, i came across this neat little plugin that is a fairly accurate simulation of electro harmonic's smallstone phaser.
It is worth a try if you dont mind using vst's.
Cheers.

I might be a little biased, but it is a completely solid replacement for a hardware Small Stone!
Especially since it's an emulation of an MKII Stone, ie a vintage version, not the modern MKIV thin-sounding version.

You can colour your sound between the usual on and off settings found on a hardware Stone, you can automate the whole thing, save presets... everything a Small Stone owner dreams of.

Enjoying my copy very much. :peacemaan:

Matt you usually need a host to run plug ins inside. Be it a mini host or a full blown workstation type host, a la Cubase, Logic, Pro Tools, Sonar....

I suggest trying Minihost. Check on kvraudio.com

You also have to install the plug in first, before you can run it. Then you have to check or move the plug in file into the right folder, so that your host can recognise it and run it.

Huuu i don't really believe they will sold much copy of this plug with this price, after looking on auction site, i guess you'll understand why.....

There are too many people :smoke: in this world....!!!!!

Seriously why use 5% CPU and so much money when you can get a real EH for the same price ?

Anyway, it sounds really good

Seriously,how about a discount to users of this site?
It is a bit pricey,but a brilliant piece of programming nontheless.

Yeah the phasing sounds right, the strings sound weak. Not bad mind you, but you can clearly make out it's not how it's supposed to sound. There is no movement to them.

Avoid VSM when doing JMJ at all costs.
