EarthQuaker Devices Tentacle Operation Manual

Enlarged version

<<< Flexi-Switching >>>

This device features Flexi-Switch

Technology! This relay-based, true bypass switching style

™

allows you to simultaneously use momentary and latching-style switching.

• For standard latching operation, tap the footswitch once to activate the effect and then tap

again to bypass.

• For momentary operation, hold the footswitch down for as long as you'd like to use the effect.

Once you release the switch, the effect will be bypassed.

Since the switching is relay-based, it requires power to pass signal.

<<< Power Requirements >>>

• Current Draw: 10mA

• This device take a standard 9 volt DC power supply with a 2.1mm negative center barrel. We

always recommend pedal-specific, transformer-isolated wall-wart power supplies or multiple

isolated-output supplies. Pedals will make extra noise if there is ripple or unclean power.

Switching-type power supplies, daisy chains and non-pedal specific power supplies do not filter

dirty power as well and let through unwanted noise. DO NOT RUN AT HIGHER VOLTAGES!

Page 2 (then tell us, we’d like to know too). What’s better? It has no controls! Nothing to worry about at all here, just hit the switch and go for it. The Tentacle is an analog octave up, the effect will become much more pronounced when using your neck pickup and playing above the 12th fret.
