Feature Overview
37 Different Band-Splitting Options: Band Splitting options including single, 2, 3, 4, 8, and
10 bands. Each band splitting option includes several sub-sets with different band splitting
frequency points.
44 Different Distortion Types: Choose from distortion/overdrive/fuzz types that include
Tube, Diode, Foldback, Negative Flip Diode, Octave Up, and more.
Dual Channel Compressor/Expander: Compressor features Input Gain, Threshold, Ratio,
Attack, Release, and Output Gain controls with a detailed graphic monitor. Use the dual
channel capabilities to isolate compression to specific frequencies. Place the
compressor/expander before or after the overdrive module.
A Growing Library of Published Presets: For quick and easy access to a world of great
tones, try sampling sounds from a vast collection of published presets created by the Source
Audio team and the ever-growing Ultrawave Neuro Community.
Stereo Ins and Outs: Create two entirely different presets and run them in series, parallel or
run each to a separate output. Stereo options also apply to the Multiband Tremolo - use the
Channel 1/Channel 2 Sync options or the Phase Offset control to create stereo ping-pong,
tremolo effects.
Detailed LFO Controls: Use the LFO module to control the Ultrawave's Tremolo, Morphing
or Ring Mod features. Choose between a standard Sine Wave or use the Attack/Release
controls to create highly customized LFO shapes.
Sound Morphing: Change from one sound to another with an expression pedal, envelope
follower or LFO.
Extreme Tonal Control including an 8-band graphic equalizer, a 3-band parametric
equalizer, a configurable HPF & LPF, and an adjustable noise gate.
Assignable Knobs: Reassign all four of the Ultrawave's knobs to the parameters most useful
for making quick, on-stage changes. Save a different set of knob assignments for every
preset.
External Expression Pedal Control: Make simultaneous, on-the-fly changes of up to three
parameters with an external expression pedal.
6 Toggle Switch Accessible Presets: Quickly access up to 6 pedal presets with the
Ultrawave's toggle switch.
