I can't remember such an issue, with the versions of Phasex I used.
It sounds so... raw, uncontrolled, well, ANALOG.
Most software simulations sound
more or less authentic, but all so much more "tame", for want of a better
term.
But PHASEX always sounded to me (and felt, as I was playing with it) that at any
moment it could do something crazy like throw a DC offset, to into an uncontrollable
oscillation, or blow up my speakers, etc.
You have been lucky then. If your sound card and amp are DC coupled,
Phasex *will* blow up your speakers. On my first test it produced a
DC offset 30 dB above the audio signal level.
Whatever qualities it may have, this is crappy.
