Congratulations! You have just purchased a HardWire® digital effect pedal. Unlike many analog pedals, the number of hours digital pedals can be powered with 9-Volt alkaline batteries is limited due to the constant draw which digital signal processors require. Until battery technology advances to meet the requirements of digital pedals, we suggest that a battery be used mainly for demonstration and practice purposes.
Introduction More than a remarkable achievement, HardWire® represents a collection of significant improvements in effects pedals for guitar. HardWire pedals provide a suite of well-known effects, each with superior tone and control.

What Does This Do? 1. Speed Knob - Controls the LFO speed of the Tremolo/Rotary effect. Turning the knob clockwise increases the speed and turning it counter-clockwise decreases the speed. 2. DC Adapter Jack - Connect (an optional) Harman PS200R power supply to this jack. Use the proper supply for your area’s mains line voltage. 3. Depth Knob - Controls the intensity of the Tremolo/Rotary effect.
4 input is needed, this jack must be used. Signals will still be heard at both outputs when only the Input 1 (Mono) jack is connected. Connecting a guitar cable to the Input 1(Mono) jack supplies battery power even though the Indicator LED may not be lit. To prolong battery life, disconnect all cables from the pedal when not in use. If the optional PS200R power supply is used for power, the input can remain connected. 7. Input 2 - Connect a second pedal’s output to this jack for stereo operation.
ing the battery compartment. (See battery replacement diagram). 9. Indicator LED - This LED indicates when the effect is turned on or off. When battery power is low (approximately 15 minutes before end of life), the Indicator LED begins to dim giving you advanced warning that very shortly you will need to replace the battery. 10. Foot Switch - Press the Foot Switch to turn the effect on and off. 11.
Tremolo/Rotary Types Tremolo Basic amplitude modulation effect with a variable waveform selector. Opto Tremolo Tremolo based on an opto isolated tremolo circuit found in vintage Fender® amps. Bias Tremolo Tremolo based on varying the power tube bias used in vintage Vox® amps. Duo Trem Dual tremolos connected in series that interact with each other to create complex rhythm patterns. Rotary Emulates a legendary LeslieTM rotary speaker cabinet with rotating horn and rotor.

Effects Loop Setup AMP RETURN PS200R (optional) AMP SEND Note: If the amp effects loop has a mix control, set the mix to 100% full wet.
Battery Operation 10 In the event that battery power is completely depleted, HardWire® pedals automatically switch into bypass. This eliminates the need to remove the pedal from your pedal chain if the battery is dead. To replace the battery, do the following: 1. Using the tip of a 1/4” guitar cable, push one of the Release Pins in on either side of the Foot Switch, and remove it from the pedal chassis. 2. Remove the battery from the battery compartment and disconnect the battery cable. 3.
Switch is properly fastened, both release pins are flush with the outer side of the pedal.
Tap Tempo The TR-7 Tremolo/Rotary’s Foot Switch can be used as a Tap Tempo switch for setting the tremolo effect’s modulation speed time during a live performance. To access Tap Tempo, do the following: 1. Press and hold the Pedal Switch for 3 seconds. The effect first will turn on and the Indicator LED lights solid BLUE (NOTE: If the effect was already on, it will first turn off and then back on after 3 seconds). 2.
Below is a table to show the ratio of tapped tempo and the speed at which the effect should modulate.
4. 14 To exit Tap Tempo, press and hold the Foot Switch for 3 seconds until the Indicator LED stops flashing and lights solid BLUE again. Once Tap Tempo mode is exited, the tapped modulation speed remains active until either the Type is changed or the Speed knob is adjusted.
