Interface
Blend:
Dry/wet balance control. When turned fully left, the
unmodified input signal is passed through. Fully right, only
the processed signal is heard. Points in the middle give you
a mix of both. Chorus amount is not affected by blend.
Sat:
Saturation amount. Pre/Bet/Aft switch changes where
the distortion happens.
L/B/H:
Smoothly morphs and blends the filter from a
lowpass to a bandpass to a highpass..
Freq:
Sets the base frequency of the filter.
Q:
Sets the amount of filter resonance.
Env (bipolar):
Envelope-follower send amount. This
extracts the envelope from the incoming signal’s dynamics,
and routes it to the filter cutoff, creating the classic “wah”
effects. This control is bipolar: at 12:00, the filter is not
affected by the envelope. To the right, the envelope will
increase the filter’s frequency. To the left, the envelope will
decrease the filter’s frequency.
Mod:
Introduces audio-rate modulation, and an octavizing
effect in the top 3rd of the knob.
Hit:
Triggers the envelope follower manually.
Pre/Bet/Aft:
Changes where the saturation stage is placed in the signal chain.
•
Pre: saturation occurs at the input.
•
Bet: saturation occurs between the first and second filters.
•
Aft: saturation occurs after the filters.
0/I/II:
Activates a chorus. 0 is off, I is a slow chorus, and II is a faster chorus. Chorus
amount is not affected by Blend.
Input and output voltages
All CV inputs expect 0-5 V. All pots act as offsets and sum with the input CV. The FSU
gate input responds to signals above +2 V. The audio inputs clip around 16 V peak to
peak.
