Feature:
It didn't include an adapter. It has an expression/control jack for your expression pedal or footswicthes. It has 4 knobs, RATE, DEPTH, RES (Resonance) and STAGE. (taken out of the PH-3 manual)>>>> The RATE knob adjusts the speed at which the filter changes. The DEPTH knob adjusts the depth of the filter change. The RES knob adjusts thje strength of the filter effect. The STAGE knob selects the niumber of the phase steps and the phase type. 4: 4-stage phaser; a light, vintage phaser effect with a classic feel. 8: 8-stage phaser that gives a balanced phaser sound. 10: 10-stage phaser providing a deeper phasing effect. 12: 12-stage phaser, with 2 six stage phasers combined to give a powerful pahse effect. FALL: Phase effect that makes a falling sensation. RISE: Phase effect that makes a falling sensation. STEP: Phase effect the randomly chooses filter modifications creating a weird effect.

Quality:
It's a Boss. It is built to last.

Value:
It is well worth over $120.00.

Desirability:
It is green!!!!! How much more horny/sexy can this thing get?

Sound:
This thing sounds so cool! Look at the intro to 'Breakout' by the Foo Fighters and the intro to 'Nowhere Fast' by Incubus (and a crapload of other Incubus songs). With this pedal you can emulate those exact sounds. The RISE/FALL setting is hypnotizing. The STEP setting is literally out of this world. There are also 4-/8-/10-/12- phase stages.

Support:
I haven't contacted Boss and I won't need to.

Overall:
I love this pedal. The features are awesome and the sound is wonderfull. Great pedal. Go out and buy it. NOW.

Feature:
it's great having all of the different phase selections

Quality:
great Boss durability, HOWEVER the pedal produces a SEVERE reduction in volume when activated and you cannot adjust the level so it is completely worthless in terms of being used as a pedal. Why the hell would you want to use a pedal that lowers your volume everytime you want to use it no matter what?

Value:
i n a live PEDAL application it is useless

Desirability:
for its usefull applications I would just get a better rack mount effects processor.

Sound:
Sounds are great! Psychedelic step phaser is really cool at a low rate

Support:
dont know havn;t needed it.

Feature:
Most pedals don't come with wall warts i wish but I have SKB pedalboard so thats what I use!!!

Quality:
way more flexible than

Desirability:
Awesume I love it!@#$

Sound:
its crystal clear, good for every music, expressive as amutha F..ker

Overall:

Feature:
Great! 7 different phasers. one that goes up, on that goes down, and others that go all around. and the steping stage gives me the coolest synth sound.

Quality:
hard as a rock. i can break some one's head with it

Value:
i suppose that it's worth the price. next to the ps-5 its the best damn single padel i heard.

Desirability:
the light green color aint a big turn on.

Sound:
Amazing, every sound the box has on it is very smooth and very sweet. this padel can range from a melodied jazz sound to a kick ass synthsetic sound

Overall:
if you can mix any other effect padel with the phase shifter. you will get the ultimate modulation sounds.

Feature:
Awesome Rise, step and fall modes, shakey tap tempo feature though

Quality:
willo last as long as you don't break it in your frustration

Value:
Go with a cheaper MXR Phase 90 or the Electro Harmonix Small stone is nice too.

Desirability:
cool color, good company, cool features

Sound:
Awesome step, fall and rise mode but a severe volume cut in regular phase mode just demolishes this pedals worth. I'm sorry go with a cheaper MXR

Support:
N/A

Overall:
honestly am looking to buy a better phaser just a month after buying it
