Description
Additional information

The DisasterTransport is an analog voiced digital delay with 625ms delay time, allanalog dry signal path, true bypass and added modulation. It wasdesigned as an anti-modern delay for those who appreciate a nice tapeecho with all its peculiarities. Its unique tone control doubles as anoise filter on longer delay settings and really helps the delay shinewith a dirty signal. The mix control allows you to boost the effectedsignal to nearly 4x the original signal level and the modulation can gofrom subtle pitch shifting warble to ultra fast tremolo speeds whilethe LED visually shows the rate.
Controls
Mix- Sets the output level of the effected signal. This should betreated as a gain control/ master volume for the delay line. Unity isaround noon and everything above noon will boost the delayed signallouder than the original. This is a gain control so, like any pedalwith a lot of gain, a hint of noise and distortion at max setting iscompletely normal.
Tone- Most delay pedals are heavily filtered at the output to removethe clock noise and other unwanted hash that is common from extendingthe range of the delay time beyond the limit of the circuitry. Thisusually leaves the delay sounding dark, muddy and disappear whenhitting it with dirt. The Disaster Transport has done away with a lotof the heavy filtering and replaced it with a tone control which allowsthe user to choose their desired sound and results in more naturaltape-like repeats. The tone control is at it’s darkest fully counterclockwise and brightens as you turn it clockwise. A good rule of thumbis to leave the tone control between off (fully counter clockwise) andnoon at longer delay times. This will remove all the common noise fromhyper-extending the circuit.
Time- From about 30ms fully counter clockwise to about 625ms fullyclockwise.
Repeats- Sets the regeneration of the delay line. From one singlerepeat fully counter clock- wise, subtle repeats around 9 O’clock,strong naturally decaying repeats at noon, near infinite repeats around2 O’clock and full on self oscillation fully clockwise.
Depth- Sets the depth of the modulation to the delay line. Themodulation is true pitch-shifting vibrato, higher depth settings willgive sea sick pitch bending, lower settings will yield a more naturalchorus/leslie/tremolo setting depending on modulation rate and delaytime. To achieve a more natural modulation, the depth should be reducedas the delay time is increased.
Rate- Sets the speed of the modulation. Goes from painfully slow toway-to-fast allowing several different modulation styles to revealthemselves.
Bypass- Turns the effect on/off.
