Congratulations on your purchase of the Nano Pulsar, a variable shape stereo
tremolo and panner effects pedal. Connected in mono, the Nano Pulsar is a
tremolo that allows significant control over the shape of the modulating
waveform. Connect the Nano Pulsar in stereo (each output to a separate amp/
mixer channel) and you have a panner pedal that will send your instrument
back and forth between two amps with the same control over waveform shape.
So, while one amp is fading up in volume, the other will be fading down in
volume or even more dramatic: while one amp is on, the other is off. But that’s
not all! Higher settings of the DEPTH knob put the Nano Pulsar into warp mode
where the signal’s volume modulates asymmetrically producing rhythmic,
out-of-phase tremolo effects.
Operating Instructions
Connect your guitar or other instrument to the INPUT jack on the Nano Pulsar
and the MONO/L OUTPUT to your main amp. If running the Nano Pulsar in
stereo, connect the Right OUTPUT jack to another amplifier. Apply power if
needed; your Nano Pulsar might already have a 9V battery installed. Press
the footswitch to ensure the STATUS LED is lit, now your Nano Pulsar is
ready to go.
For a nice starter setting, turn all knobs to their 12 o’clock positions and set
the toggle switch—centered within the knobs—to the Triangle position. This
setting will yield a deep, smooth tremolo at a medium rate. Lower the DEPTH
knob for a shallower tremolo effect; play with the RATE knob to hear the
full range of modulation speed on tap; and of course, adjust the VOL knob
for more or less volume at the output jacks.
