Two MXR Phasers in a Single Mini Pedal

MXR has combined two of the most-used phaser pedals ever made in the MXR Mini Phase 95 pedal. The original Phase 90 pedal was a four-stage phaser that practically defined the phaser sound for electric guitar, and the Phase 45 that followed was a two-stage phaser that delivered a smoother sound that blended better with certain music styles. You get both flavors in the MXR Mini Phase 95 pedal, switchable with the 45/90 toggle switch. The "Script" switch toggles feedback in the effect, providing a pronounced sweep when on and a lusher, more subdued sound when off. Many Sweetwater guitarists choose MXR phasers for their pedalboards, and the MXR Mini Phase 95 pedal offers two iconic phaser effects in a single road-worthy stompbox.

MXR Mini Phase 95 Effects Pedal Features at a Glance:
  • Phaser effects pedal for electric guitar
  • Based on two classic phaser pedals: the Phase 90 and the Phase 45
  • Toggle between two-stage phasing and four-stage phasing with the 45/90 switch
  • "Script" switch toggles feedback for a more pronounced "swoosh" or a more subdued effect
  • Compact, rugged pedal is perfect for any pedalboard
The MXR Mini Phase 95 puts two legendary phaser effects in a single rugged pedal.

Great pedal at a great price!

I love the MXR "Mini Phase 95" pedal! I was skeptical about the new "mini pedals," but this one sounds just as good as my full-size MXRs. If you're after the Van Halen-style phasing the Phase 95 nails it with "Script Phase 90" mode, and sounds equally good for subtle sounds with the always-nice "Phase 45" settings.

The 45/90 settings sound very close to my 70s pedals, and the "script/block" switch does a good job of the vintage/modern voicing. The combinations of those switches give a wide variety of sounds from this very small pedal: you're getting the sounds of a new or vintage Phase 90 and Phase 45, all in one tiny package! (Interesting note: The Phase 95 is half the size, less expensive, yet much more versatile than MXR's EVH Phase 90, due to the Phase 95's two very-useful "Phase 45" settings that are not included in the EVH pedal.)

I also discovered a helpful trick to maximize this pedal's performance: My full-size MXR Phase 90 has a rubber cover on the "speed" knob, for easy foot control. I turned a spare MXR knob-cover upside-down and ta da, the hole fit perfectly over the mini "speed" knob of the Phase 95. I've used the pedal this way for several weeks now with good results.

The MXR Phase 95 gives excellent performance and many sound options, and it's tiny and simple to use. As a long-time fan of MXR's effects I am very happy with this pedal, great quality and price! Thanks to Jake Tillman and Sweetwater for more good gear!

Great compact Phaser

This little pedal is a workhorse that doesn't take up much space. Covers all my phaser needs when I need it, which isn't much. It's on my board out of the way. You can't go wrong with this pedal!

Big pedal in a little package

This little pedal gives lots of options for phase effects. It goes from just a slight, barely noticable shimmer to an all out Byrds, Wasn't Born to Follow creamy-dreamy phase. For those of you who may be too young, check it out. The added bonus, this little pedal takes up very little real estate on your pedal board. Highly recommend this little honey!!
