Coincidentally, I just purchased a Phasor board complete with all the
literature, including the Applied Engineering warrantee card! Here's a list
of program compatibility Applied Engineering provided:

Airsim-3
Apple Cider Spider
Auto Gyro
Bouncing Kamungas
Broadside
Clarinet Master
Crime Wave
Exodus/Ultima III
Flute Master
Guitar Master
Lady Tut
Lancaster
Maze Craze
Music Construction Set
One-on-One
Quest Avatar/Ultima IV
Saxophone Master
Silent Service
Singing Master
Skyfox
Tactical Armor Command
The Spy Strikes Back
Trumpet Master
Ultima V
Willy Byte
Window
Zaxxon
ZooKeeper

I recognize some of these titles as programs that supported the
Mockingboard. Sorry, I can't tell you which ones are Phasor specific.

If you're an Apple II+ or /e user, the Phasor is a great synthesizer board
as far as out-of-the-box and into-the-II goes, being easier to install and
hook up to amplifier / speakers than the ALF Music Synthesizer or the
Mockingboard. The music composition and sound effects system files require
ProDOS whereas the Mockingboard system files require DOS 3.3.
The Phasor could definitely use mouse-based effects editing and music
composition programs, though.
