Wounded Paw Blender V4 Manual

Wounded Paw Blender V4 revision j1
The Blender V4 is a parallel effects loop blender with 4 fully buffered effects loops. The instrument signal is split into 4
channels, sent to the 4 effects loops, and then mixed back together and each effects loop may be switched on or off
individually.
Effects Loop A defaults to a clean channel if no external effects unit is plugged into its return jack. The Bass and Treble tone
controls for effects loop A work on either the return of the effects loop or the clean signal accordingly.
Effects Loop B has a switchable high pass filter on the return of the loop which can be used to roll off the low end on the
effects signal in that loop.
Effects Loops C and D can be switched from a parallel to a serial configuration with the return of loop C going directly to the
send of loop D or vice versa.
There are toggle switches for the behaviour of the returns of the effects loops when those effects loops are bypassed. The
options are to be muted, or to send through the clean send signal, or the return of the effects loop.
Controls
BYPASS – True bypass stomp switch to turn the entire pedal on or off.
EFFECTS A / CLEAN – Stomp switch to turn on and off Effects Loop A. Effects Loop A becomes a clean channel when no
effect is plugged into the EFFECTS A RETURN jack.
VOLUME A / CLEAN – Volume control for the EFFECTS A / CLEAN channel sent to the output mix. Unity gain is at 3 o'clock.
BASS A / CLEAN – Bass shelf with boost or cut control for the EFFECTS A / CLEAN channel. Setting the knob at 12 noon
means the tone response is completely flat. Turning the tone control up past noon boosts while turning them down below
noon cuts that control. With the treble control this forms a Baxandall type tone section.
TREBLE A / CLEAN – Treble shelf control for the EFFECTS A / CLEAN channel with same functionality as the bass control.
BYPASS A – The Return/Thru/Mute toggle selects what gets sent to the output mix when Effects Loop A is bypassed: the
