PROGRAMS:

Chorus:
Find subtle chorus to be vibrant, and lush tri-chorus that will instantly teleport you to the 80s. Type I is a traditional chorus great for tight smooth chorus tones. Type II adds a second chorus with an offset rate and depth. Thanks to the constructive interface, it has a more dramatic character caused by essentially running two chorus pedals in series. Type III finds its roots in the classic tri-chorus effect running three chorus units in parallel for a lush multi-dimensional chorus.

X knob controls Lag to set the maximum allowed amount of pitch detuning.

Phaser:
Classic 70s phaser sounds everyone knows and loves, with added features that you wouldn't expect. Similar to the Lillian, Type I is a 2-Stage Phaser that produces a read more single notch to the classic mild phaser. Type II is a 4-Stage model producing 2 notches for a stronger effect. Type III is a phaser modeled after the unique tuning and LFO shape found in a Uni-Vibe.

X knob introduces Feedback for a more dramatic phaser effect.

Tremolo:
This program emulates a tremolo with three algorithms containing all the bells, whistles, and even a cherry on top. Type I is excellent for traditional sounds similar to optical and bias tremolos that raise and lower the entire frequency range - similar to the Monument in standard mode. Type II is a warm and cozy harmonic tremolo - similar to the Monument in harmonic mode. This unique sound is formed by raising and lowering your high and low frequencies opposite each other. Type III offers several predefined patterns for rhythmic sequenced pulsing tremolo.

X knob manipulates the phase of the left and right volume modulation for a wide stereo panning effect.
Shape and Symmetry in Type III (pattern Trem) select the pattern group and patterns within each group.

Vibrato
Make good parts great with detuned, warbly, and vintage sounds that harken back to the 60s. Type I focuses on traditional vibrato sounds like those found in Julia and Julianna's "V" mode. Old record players inspire type II with classic RPM's on the rate knob and some noise character you'd find in your dad's old dusty Speedwagon LPs. The rate knob can select 33rpm, 45rpm, and 78rpm speeds in this mode. Type III is Walrus' take on the wow and flutter pitch characters found in old tape players. Warm and charming with a hint of nostalgia.

X knob manipulates the phase of the pitch modulation when connected with stereo outs in Type I and Type II and controls the amount of "flutter" modulation applied in Type III.

Rotary
Because you can't fit a Leslie speaker on your pedalboard, type I aims for that traditional watery sound of a well-oiled Leslie speaker. Type II only spins the horn but still plays the sound out of the drum. Type III only spins the drum but still plays sound from the horn.

X knob controls the drive of the horn.
