Output volume control. Warning! This is one of the
loudest pedals we make. It was intentionally built
to push amps harder than they’re used to being
pushed. With the
gain
cranked, the final voltage
amplifier stage will be banging off the rails, and that
full huge signal is sent straight to the
vol
control. If
you run your
rad
off higher voltage power supplies,
you’ll get even bigger signals out. Crank this knob
at your own risk!
VOL
2-position toggle that controls the midrange
response from this pedal.
Flat
closely matches the
incoming midrange content to the pedal, while
boost
adds roughly 6db of extra gain in your midrange,
which is perfect for a nice bit of presence and
articulation, and can dirty up the pedal up nicely.
boost
will let the
Rad
slice through a dense mix, or
allow you to counter-act some mid scoop from a
pedal later in the chain.
mid
make the
Rad
itself run dirtier, all while increasing
attack and clarity on anything that comes after.
Controls the gain on your treble frequencies. This
circuit was originally designed for someone that
asked for a Rangemaster, so there's a ton of treble
here. Flat response is at about 9-o'clock, so you
can go counterclockwise from there to cut treble, or
crank it clockwise to increase. This is an active
control so not only will it add volume to your treble
frequencies, but will (depending on your
gain
setting)
Treb
3-position toggle switch for setting low frequency
content.
Cut
mode rolls off some lows before the
Ge voltage amplifier stages to keep things nice and
focused, but switching to
flat
mode passes every-
thing but the kitchen sink.
Boost
mode adds an
additional 6db of lows to bring the thunder and
squeeze out even more Silicon nastiness.
bass
Increases the full-spectrum gain for this pedal. With
the
Rad S
i
ckness
, we actually recommend that you
start with the
gain
at full and dial back to find the
level you'd like. The gain curve on this pedal starts
very clean and hifi, but eventually tips over into
silicon overdrive.
Gain
-
Use only CENTER NEGATIVE DC power supplies,
designed for use with pedals. Other types of
supplies can and will damage your pedal.
-
We recommend 9V DC supplies, but you can also
run your
Rad
up to 24V DC. DO NOT run your
pedal higher than 24V DC or damage can occur.
-
DOT NOT adjust any internal trimpots. We set them
very carefully for ideal circuit and sonic function.
