Depending on how you connect it to your other equipment, the Divaricator can be used as an inline effect to enhance the signal; to split a signal to a bass amp and a guitar amp; or to insert other effects into your chain that cut bass or otherwise alter your tone.

Exciters exciters switched independently, by toggling their respective switches up. Setting all switches down turns off all three, allowing the pedal to function as a pure crossover/splitter. Growl: A distortion-like exciter which generates extra harmonics. Unlike conventional distortion, this effect preserves your playing dynamics exactly, rather than adding compression.

come when turning the X-Over frequency up above center. You'll be generating octaves only from the higher harmonics in your sound, which creates unique, exaggerated pick attack sounds shimmer. Density: “multi-layer” enhancement effect which thickens the sound. This is similar to a reverb, but maintains the rhythmic tightness of your playing.

Controls Threshold: Sets the level of the incoming signal at which the noise gate is engaged. Adjust so that soft or sustained notes don’t cut off, but muted strings do. For overt gating effects, set the Threshold lower on the dial. You can use this to punctuate a bassline or melodic phrase by only turning on the high band, effects loop, and/or exciters when you play...

Turn Hi/Loop all the way down and begin turning X-Over up, stopping at a few points in the knob's travel to play. In this setting, the Divaricator functions as a non- resonant 4-pole lowpass filter. This can be useful for getting a very pure, deep bass...

tone, even with new strings and a bright bass. Now turn Hi/Loop back up and turn on Growl. Increase the Excite amount and experiment with the X-Over control. A large variety of unique distortion/fuzz tones can be found here. With the X-Over set lower, you'll tend to get more thick and obvious distortion.

Connections The Divaricator can be used in different configurations depending on how the Exp/Loop jack is connected to other equipment. A – Inline effect. When nothing is inserted...

Divaricator mixing with unprocessed low frequency band, as well as the full-range clean signal. C – Bi-amping. Using an “insert” cable, connect the TRS stereo end of the cable to the Exp/Loop jack.

In this configuration, the Hi/Loop knob will act as a limiter on the maximum volume the expression pedal can go to. Power supply Divaricator powered industry-standard volt center- negative power supply (2.1mm jack). It draws 85 mA of current.
