Moon Rabbit Phaser
drolo 2018
The Moon Rabbit is a 6 stage optical phaser with tap tempo and an envelope follower.
The 6 analog phase stages are voiced halfway between a Uni-Vibe type pedal (staggered phase filter caps) and a
more traditional phaser (identical phase filter caps).
It has 8 available LFO shapes and an expression pedal input that can be assigned to control the rate or the range of
the phasing.

Summary of Contents for Drolo Moon Rabbit
- Page 1 Moon Rabbit Phaser drolo 2018 The Moon Rabbit is a 6 stage optical phaser with tap tempo and an envelope follower. The 6 analog phase stages are voiced halfway between a Uni-Vibe type pedal (staggered phase filter caps) and a more traditional phaser (identical phase filter caps).
- Page 2 Connecting and powering: The power supply needs to be 9V/100ma center negative like the common BOSS power supplies: Make sure the polarity of your power supply is correct or it will damage the pedal. D o NOT run at higher voltages. Since the pedal has a digital microprocessor operating with high frequencies, you might hear some high pitched noise if you use it together on the same power supply with other pedals (daisy chained) even when it is off.
- Page 3 bypass The pedal uses a relay bypass. If you give the bypass switch a short tap (<0.3 sec) it acts in latching mode. If you press it for more than 0.3 seconds, the bypass led will start flashing to indicate that you are in momentary mode.
- Page 4 env/0/exp These 2 toggle switches define how the envelope follower and expression input are controlling rate and range respectively (follow the little black arrow to see what switch controls what parameter) - Set to 0, only the respective knob is active. Exp and envelope have no effect on the given parameter. - Set to exp, the parameter will be controlled by the expression input.
- Page 5 Some notes: This phaser has quite a large range of settings that allow you to dial in very common phaser sounds but also a lot of weird sounds, “bad” sounds and even silence. A lot of the controls are interactive, especially if you introduce the envelope follower where the input signal will also dictate how the pedal behaves.
- Page 6 Now let’s try out the envelope follower for the rate: With all knobs at noon like previously, let’s flip up the left toggle switch to the env position. You should notice that when you strum your guitar harder the rate increases. You can use the rate knob to define the highest rate that it can jump to and use the env knob to find the sweet spot to suit your incoming signal.
