I was wondering how to reproduce the trance sweeping phaser effect in Reason, which Sadowick Production is showing in the following video.
Sadowick is using a delay effect in Ableton with a very short automated delay time. I couldn't reproduce this in Reason, because I couldn't find a delay with such short delay times.

Any ideas?

Hi Exode,
Yes, I‘m on Reason 11. Why are you asking, because of Sweeper?

This is a flanger effect, aka COMB- filter. You can try the half-rack Chorus/Flanger CF-101 device for that, though I'm not sure there'll be no artifacts on changing the delay. You can also use Thor's Filter 3 in Comb Filter mode, this way you can use Global Env to control the sweep.

Here's a reason 11 project file giving it a go.

I‘ve tried Sweeper, but couldn‘t get the exact same sound. I guess the reason is, that Sweeper only works with a notch or peak filter and not for the whole spectrum. But maybe I could try quartet chorus with mod depth = 0 and a Modulation of the delay time and 50:50 dry wet.

I actually use the flanger mode, since that is basically the same thing as a short delay (or comb effect). You can play around with the feedback amount (perhaps increase it) to get a different result.

Also, the bass sounds a little better if you tune it down to F instead of A. 8-)

Here's an example using Thor. The effect is inserted into a bus track. You can load a test audio on the audio track and run it.

I updated the link using built in drums to keep the project size down, I also added a variation where I achieve a similar effect with Pulveriser instead of Sweeper.

Thank you all very much for your ideas and help. This proves again, that there are a lot of different and good possibilities in Reason.
In my case I've found, that I like Quartet Chorus for this the most, because it has a very fine delay time parameter range.
