The Horizont is a seriously cool phaser – it’s got a real vintage vibe thanks to that JFET design, but with modern versatility. It’s perfect for players who want a boutique-quality, expressive phaser without the ultra-premium price tag, especially those seeking a warm, swirling sound for psychedelic rock or ambient textures.

Frequently Asked Questions

JFETs impart a smoother, more rounded tone with a subtle warmth and harmonic richness, lacking the sometimes harsh or brittle character of op-amp designs.
While it has some chorus/flanger capabilities, the Horizont’s strength lies in its phaser tones; the other modes are more subtle variations on the phasing theme.
The FX loop is designed to accommodate a wide range of pedals, allowing for flexible signal routing and creative effect stacking.
