Members puritycontrol Posted May 13, 2006 Members Share Posted May 13, 2006 which one and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BmoreTele Posted May 13, 2006 Members Share Posted May 13, 2006 I've played both. I prefer the Quasar, but they're both top notch.The Moon may sound a little smoother. I didn't care that much for the tremo-phase sounds, and the Moon controls are less intuitive. There's a lot of sweet spots in the Moon's range. It's more of an atmosphere sound. The Quasar goes further - more resonance, more depth, more wild sounds, but it can be smooth too. I could figure out the controls easily. And it's purple!my 2 cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ray18 Posted May 13, 2006 Members Share Posted May 13, 2006 the quasar does I nice "vibey" sound it can get notched sounding like the small stone...but it won't be as "jet plane" sounding the quasar is really a phaser for us guys that want one that's not going for a flange impression..smooth, flubby, rotating speaker sounding but not wooshy plus it doesn't distort great for us humbucker guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members The Friendly Ranger Posted May 13, 2006 Members Share Posted May 13, 2006 Hmmm, not bad. I think I'll add the Quaser to my list of potentials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mr_Nargle Posted May 14, 2006 Members Share Posted May 14, 2006 I'm going to go against the grain and say the complete opposite to everyone here-go for the moon phaser. I tried both side by side and the quasar came out sounding a lot thinner to my ears. Also i totally disagree with the comments that the moon phasers controls are not intuitive. I found the quaser much more difficult to get a good useable sound from. But heck, that's just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members puritycontrol Posted May 14, 2006 Author Members Share Posted May 14, 2006 thanks for the clips and all the responses. i just got a decent deal on a used quasar so i guess that's what's coming first. i had to bite cause it came to less than half of a new moon phaser. if i'm relatively happy with it i'm gonna splurge for a TZF flanger, if not then it'll have to wait while i go on to try the moon phaser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members puritycontrol Posted May 25, 2006 Author Members Share Posted May 25, 2006 ok got a Quasar here with me and i love it, my question is, does the Moon Phaser have the same versatility? if it does AND sounds warmer (more syrupy small stonish) then i'd have to go out and try the MP, if not, then i'll stick with the Quasar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
