This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
TONE (RAMP)
Simply put, this is a magical knob. When you don't
have any dip switches assigned for ramping, this knob
functions as low-pass tone filter for the repeats of the
delay. Completely clockwise is slightly brighter than your
average analog delay (still dark), and completely counter-
clockwise is black-out murk oil delay darkness. The pedal
is able to compensate for some of the natural attenuation
that happens as the tone rolls off by boosting the delay
signal according to where the tone is set. In regards to
the ramping functionality, due to the digital control of
this pedal you can set this knob to control any of the five
parameters individually or simultaneously (mix, rate,
time, regen, depth) and have it either modulate or ramp-
and-hold (rise or fall) via dip switches in the back of the
pedal. Essentially, this knob controls the ramp time in
which this takes place.
MIX
Sets the mix between dry, unaffected signal and the
delay's repeats. Completely clockwise is 100% wet, full
delay path, and in this scenario the signal will be boosted.
This allows for a better mix when the dry signal is mixed
in. Completely counter-clockwise is 100% dry. With the
knob a little past noon, you get a 50/50 wet/dry mix.
RATE
Sets the rate of the LFO (low frequency oscillator) for
the pitch modulation on the repeats. Clockwise for fast
modulation, counter-clockwise for slow modulation.
TIME
Controls the length of the delay. Clockwise for increased

OVERVIEW
Buckle up, it's time to go back to Mars. The "Red Knob Mod"
version of Tonal Recall is built around 4 re-issued versions of the
legendary MN3005 bucket-brigade delay chips. It's maximum delay
time is increased to 1100ms and the unmistakable analog character
of this delay is front and center. Tonal Recall expands upon the
classic vintage sounds associated with analog delays of yesteryear
while bringing modern amenities such as tap tempo, optional bypass
with trails, expression control over any parameter, and the ability to
save presets. Every knob and switch is connected to a little digital
brain while your guitar signal stays 100% analog and never gets
digitally processed. Since the control of the effect is digital, it opens
up unprecedented effects and features that have never been heard
or offered in analog stompboxes.
delay time (max 1100ms) and counterclockwise for
decreased delay time. This control is over-ridden by the
tap tempo switch.
NOTE DIVISION TOGGLE
Controls the tap division for tap tempo in regards to
delay length, with the assumption that the user is tapping
on quarter notes. A dip switch in the back of the pedal
lets you access the divisions in the parenthetical if you
so desire. You can also select tap divisions for ramping
parameters dependent on where the "tap control"
dip switch is set. Note that divisions are 2x slower
for ramping.
REGEN
This controls the amount of repeats on the delay. If set
carefully, it can regenerate seemingly forever, and can also
regenerate into self-oscillating madness. The longer that
a delay is regenerated, it will eventually devolve into a
beautiful, smeary, tape-saturated blur.
DEPTH
This controls the intensity of the pitch modulation on
the repeats.
S / L / B TOGGLE
This controls how many Xvive MN3005 delay chips your
delayed signal will pass through. S stands for "short" (1
MN3005, 20ms to 275ms delay), L stands for "long" (4
MN3005, 80ms to 1100ms delay), and B stands for "both"
which creates more of a blurry, reverb-like wash.
