This Deluxe model improves upon the original by increasing sustain, as well as adding active filters to shape the tone of each voice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Synth Voice Deluxe detects your input signal frequency and generates a synthesized tone at the same fundamental frequency. The volume of this signal is controlled by the SYNTH knob. The synth signal is perfect for adding heft to your clean signal, or changing your clean signal to a completely different voice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe synth tone is used to create the sub signal one octave below the fundamental frequency. The volume of this signal is controlled by the SUB knob. The tone of this signal is fat and bassy, compared to the typical glitchy video game sounding tones you tend to get from other octave pedals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMixing in your input signal with the CLEAN knob, you can beef up your regular tone, add a sub octave for extra low end, or cut out your clean signal entirely, creating a completely synthesized signal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe filter knobs cut high frequency content from their respective clean, synth, and sub signals. These controls are reminiscent of a filter knob on a synthesizer. At higher filter settings, the synth and sub become a pure tone, similar to a sine wave. Reducing the filter adds harmonics, creating more of a square wave tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pedal requires a 9V DC power supply (not included). The DC supply should be a standard Boss style connector, center negative polarity. The current draw is approximately 50 mA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Synth Voice Deluxe uses a soft touch stomp switch to actuate a relay, providing true bypass operation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDimensions: 4.77\" long x 3.6\" wide\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe user can define whether the pedal defaults to bypassed or unbypassed upon power-up. Unplug the power from the pedal, hold down the footswitch, and then apply power. This toggles the default power-up state.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cu\u003eA Note on Analog Octavers\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Synth Voice Deluxe provides some of the best tracking and sustain you will ever experience on an analog octaver, and should be an easy and fun pedal to use. Understanding how analog octavers work can improve your interaction with this, and any analog octaver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost octavers work by detecting the strongest frequency and dividing this frequency in half. If your signal contains high levels of harmonics, the octaver may fluctuate between which frequency it chooses to reproduce. To produce a tone that does not fluctuate, you will need to play in a way that ensures the fundamental frequency remains prominent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere are some tips on how to ensure your fundamental is strong, optimizing the octaver's ability to track your signal.
