Maximum Input Level
Mode Max. Signal Level
(Volts peak-to-peak)
Description
+12 dB with -3 dB pad 8.2 Vpp For extremely hot input signals. DSP output will
be reduced by -3 dB. Analog bypass signal is not
aected (so DSP bypass or kill dry work best).
+8 dB 5.7 Vpp Works well with synthesizers.
+5 dB
(default)
4 Vpp Works with most instrument and line-level sig-
nals.
0 dB 2.3 Vpp Acoustic guitar and quiet instruments.
The right LED blinks red if input clipping occurs. Lower the output volume of your instrument or select
a higher maximum input level. Clipping will not damage the pedal, so you can also overload the A/D con-
verter to intentionally add distortion.
The output signal level can be slightly higher than the maximum input level, which allows the combined
dry and eected signals to exceed the input level without distortion.
Bypass Mode
DSP
(default)
Dry signal and bypass passes through DSP. Our pedals use studio-quality A/D
and D/A converters with low latency. This is a good choice in most situations.
Analog Dry signal passes through DSP when eect is on, and buered analog signal
path in bypass. Depending on the input signal, there could be a small click
when the eect is engaged.
Analog + FX Level Dry signal passes through a unity-gain analog signal path.
Kill Dry Dry signal is always muted. Useful for wet/dry parallel eects chains and
mixer aux sends. The BLEND knob acts as an eect level control, but keeps
the same response as other modes.
Analog + FX Level bypass mode is not compatible with Mono In / Stereo Out, because the analog signal
path cannot send the left input to both output channels. A workaround is to use a female TS to male TRS
mono to stereo adapter to split the mono input signal to both channels, with Stereo In/Stereo Out config-
uration.
Trails
OFF Reverb tail fades out immediately when eect is turned o.
ON Reverb tail decays naturally after eect is turned o.
