Use it to make the effects responsive to your input signal. PATTERN generates GATE (rhythm) and CV (stepped sequence) output signals. They are both always driven by TEMPO . Turn the RHYTHM knob to select a pattern on the GATE output. To modify a pattern, use the PATTERN inputs G-GATE, R-RESET and C-CV. Connect the + patch point to randomize the existing sequence. Unplug, once you have something fun. Plug the - patch point to variate the sequence. You can use modulation too! Patch the LFO pulse output into PATTERN R-RESET input to alter sequence length. SYNC IN OUT L L R R GATE IN CV IN LFO PATTERN GRC ENV RESETS BOTH CV AND GATE GATE CV - CONNECTED = INVERTS PSEUDO 16 STEP LOOP CV UNCONNECTED = 8 STEP LOOP + CONNECTED = RANDOM 1.

In this guide we shall summon the mighty FX WIZARD! Art thou ready? 4. INPUT GAIN 7. TIME FOR MAGIC! Hold SHIFT and turn the TIME Start patching: connect some MOD knob to set the INPUT gain. outputs to inputs. This is what Follow the light indicator avoid they look like: the RED! To trully master the ways of FX MAGIC, learn the ways of modulation! MODULATION MAGIC This knob says how much this input affects this knob 1. POWER SOURCE Plug in a USB-C cable or insert 3x AA batteries. or USB-C 3xAA 2. CONNECTIONS Connect your chosen signal to AUDIO and your headphones, mixer, or speakers to AUDIO. SHIFT TIME MOD INPUT ! Silver labels are active when holding the SHIFT button. 5. OUTPUT VOLUME Hold SHIFT and turn the TIME knob to adjust the output VOLUME . Can You Hear Me? SHIFT TIME VOLUME INPUTS OUTPUTS Most sets of 3 points in a row are connected. Use any of them. Feel free to experiment NOTHING CAN BREAK! Knobs without rabbits control modulation and take effect only when you start patching. 8. CLOCK SYNC Use SYNC to synchronise with external clock. The FX Wizard will follow. To be the leader, use the SYNC out. LFO MODULATION EFFECT Use MOD to adjust the amount of FEEDBACK modulation. The same goes for TIME and LFO. FILTER & STEREO LP HP FEEDBACK MOD FEEDBACK LFO TIP: Use CV to switch between FX modes! Press FX MODE and turn AMOUNT to adjust the amount of FX MODE modulation. Use FILTER to make your sound: brighter HP (highpass) cuts bass, darker LP (lowpass) cuts treble. Use STEREO to make the sound W I D E R! AUDIO 2. POWER UP Flip the POWER switch to the right. 6. MEET THE WIZARD Press the FX MODE button to switch effects. Explore the effects by turning the White Rabbit knobs. Use the map on the first page. POWER FX MODE SYNC 9. TEMPO To set the tempo, hold SHIFT and turn the TEMPO knob. To tap the tempo, hold SHIFT and press TAP a few times. If using SYNC in, the TEMPO knob sets the tempo multiplier/divider. LFO DIVISIONS OF TEMPO SYNC FREE LFO TEMPO LFO generates cycling triangle and pulse waveforms. Adjust the speed with the LFO knob: to the right for free running, to the left to sync with the tempo.Adobe PDF library 17.00 Adobe Illustrator(R) 24.0
