Resotron along with an EXPRESSION input for foot-controlled filter sweeps and CV modulation. The multi-mode filter at the heart of the Resotron can be set to Low Pass (LPF), Band Pass (BPF) or High Pass (HPF) modes. Each of...
Before the signal from the input of the pedal hits the filter inside the Resotron, it passes through an optical compression stage derived from our Philosophers Tone pedal. The increased volume and punch from the compressor can then be mixed into the audio signal using the BLEND control without affecting the SENSITIVITY of the envelope.

INPUT jack is disconnected from the envelope follower and pitch tracking system that modu- lates the filter in the Resotron. When using the TRIGGER input, it is recommended that the BLEND knob be set fully counter- clockwise.

CHAPTER 2. ANATOMY AND FUNCTIONS Note: If identical audio signals are sent to both the INPUT and TRIGGER jacks, a ducking effect will occur when feeding when the BLEND control is set to 12-o-clock. To eliminate this ducking phenomenon, flip the phase of the TRIGGER signal.

Resotron. The Resotron has three filter modes, high pass filter, band pass filter, and low pass filter. In the LPF (low pass) mode, the Resotron will filter out all frequencies ABOVE the CUTOFF. In the BPF (band pass) mode, the Resotron will filter out all frequencies AT the CUTOFF.
Getting Started Basic Hook Up 1. Unpack your Resotron and place it on a flat, stable surface. 2. Make sure you are using the 18-Volt DC (negative center) power supply that came with your Pigtronix Resotron.
Guided Tour The following steps will guide you through the sonic palette of the Resotron and show you how to access the range of tones that it has to offer. 1. Set all of the controls fully counter-clockwise, and set each tog- gle in the up position.

Note: Be careful when turning the PEAK knob fully clock- wise as this will cause the Resotron to oscillate at a loud volume without VCA gating. 11. Toggle the FILTER MODE between the different the three types of filters to see how the effect changes.
VCA which watches your input signal to set the output volume of the synth. Mutron III inspired UP and DOWN modes were also added to augment the signature pitch-following abilities found in the Pigtronix Resotron. I dreamed about making this pedal for years and I hope you love it. David Koltai, 11/15/2018...
