Looking for the manual? - Check this page above under the heading: 'Product manual or files' - We might have it! I have found it to be entirely useful, both as a bassist and in the studio. It will, however, mutate any sound you put into it into something entirely different. ![]() The sounds speak for themselves.įor a stompbox, this pedal is rather expensive, retailing at around $280 (USD). Ultimately, it's rather difficult to describe with words what this pedal can do. Simple upward and downward filter sweeps are easily achieved with this unit also. Adding distortion and enhancing the octave can further mutate the sound. When being used with a vocal, it can add a Ôwah' eff dect to the voice, and make it sound more like a synth than a human. Since the filter is triggered by the loop, then it is going off in perfect time with the loop and thus accenting the rhythm of the loop. How this benefits someone using it to filter perhaps a drum loop, is that the sensitivity of the trigger can be set so that certain hits within the drum loop set off the filter. I suppose it was designed this way so that a guitarist could get the exact same filter sweep with each pluck of a string. What seems to set this unit apart from other filters (I've only used the filters on synth's before) is it's ability to automatically start a filter sweep. This section has four sliders as well, one each for resonance, start freq, stop freq, and rate. When using a guitar, the square wave provides nearly endless sustain!Ĭ) attack delay - which controls the attack of the signal, much like the envelope generator on an analog synthĭ) filter sweep - which controls the resonance, starting and stopping frequencies of the sweep and the duration of the sweep. These sliders are, sub octave - which adds a somewhat muddy duplication of the signal an octave lower ( by no means an exact duplication, but an interesting effect nonetheless), guitar - which is simply the volume of the signal, octave - which ÷seems to highlight certain frequencies an octave higher ( again, not an identical duplication but sounds good anyway ) and square wave - which adds square wave distortion, much like a Superfuzz or Fuzzface distortion pedal. ![]() Going from left to right the groups are:Ī) trigger, which controls how sensitive the filter is to the incoming signalī) voice mix, which controls the volume of the incoming signal with four sliders. In other words, it's a tank.įor controlling the effect, there are ten sliders divided into four groups. This includes falling from the top of my amp, being dragged around once I've surpassed the length of my guitar cable and drunken load outs. I've been gigging with mine, ( 3 to 4 nights a week ), for a year and it has held up admirably. It is encased in a sturdy steel box and is quite rugged. Bass lines, drum loops, vocal samples and virtually any other signal will take on a new life when fed thru this box.īeing a stompbox designed for guitar use, it has 1/4Ó mono inputs and outputs. While it excels at this use, and helped provide a signature sound for Bootsy Collins in the Ô70's, it also is a versatile beast when applied to electronic music.
