ModFactor User Guide
Effect Levels
18
Note: When ModFactor is turned Off, the relays automatically Bypass the unit. This means
that if power should accidentally go down while you’re playing, your guitar signal will not
disappear because of ModFactor. Of course, if power is down, you may have bigger
problems.
Effect Levels
Mono/Stereo
ModFactor detects which input and output jacks have cables plugged in and routes audio I/O
accordingly. With a Mono Input (Input 1) and Stereo Outputs, the dry contribution for both
outputs comes from the Mono Input (Input 1). With Stereo Inputs, the dry contribution at
Output 1 is from Input 1 and the dry contribution at Output 2 is from Input 2, thereby
maintaining the original signal stereo image.
Killdry – Send/Return Loop
If you’ve connected your ModFactor using an effect send/return loop (either your amp’s or a
mixer’s), ModFactor’s Killdry feature can be enabled. For some Effects (Chorus, Vibrator,
Undulator and RingMod), when Killdry is enabled, the Intensity Control works as a Master
Effects Level Control.
When Killdry is enabled, ModFactor does not send any dry signal to the outputs; only the
Effect. Note that when Killdry is enabled, Bypassing will mute the Effect rather than Bypass it.
Killdry’s factory default is disabled. It can be enabled in the [BYPASS] menu of the System
Mode. Here’s how:
1)
Press and hold the Encoder and Right Footswitch simultaneously for a few seconds
to enter System Mode. Release the Encoder.
2)
Turn the Encoder until [BYPASS] is displayed.
3)
Momentarily press the Encoder.
4)
Turn the Encoder until [KILLDRY] is displayed.
5)
Momentarily press the Encoder.
6)
Turn the Encoder to select either [YES] or [NO].
7)
Press and hold the Encoder and Right Footswitch simultaneously for a few seconds
to exit System Mode.
Peak LED
The Peak LED lights to indicate that the input signal level is near clipping. Occasional flashing
is OK. If Peak LED is lit solidly, reduce the input level either by reducing the signal level fed to
ModFactor or by setting the rear panel input switch to the Line position.
