Iron Ether
Xerograph Deluxe
Owner's Manual
The Xerograph Deluxe is a 4-pole resonant
lowpass filter, with capabilities to sweep
the cutoff frequency of the filter using the
instrument's
playing
dynamics,
an
expression pedal, or both simultaneously.
Controls
Frequency knob:
Sets the base cutoff
frequency of the filter. When using an
expression pedal, this knob will set the
minimum
frequency
from
which
the
expression pedal will sweep (heel down
position) - the maximum frequency (toe
down position on the expression pedal) is
set by the Exp knob.
When used as an envelope filter, this sets
the
base
frequency
from
which
the
dynamics will sweep up or down.

Summary of Contents for Iron Ether Xerograph Deluxe
- Page 1 Iron Ether Xerograph Deluxe Owner’s Manual The Xerograph Deluxe is a 4-pole resonant lowpass filter, with capabilities to sweep the cutoff frequency of the filter using the instrument's playing dynamics, expression pedal, or both simultaneously. Controls Frequency knob: Sets the base cutoff frequency of the filter.
- Page 2 Resonance knob: Adds feedback around the filter, boosting a narrow band of frequencies around the cutoff, intensifying the effect of the filter. Set this low for more subtle tone-shaping effects, to the center for "quacky" sounds, or up to around 3 o'clock for a wet synth sound. Turning the knob to maximum sends the filter into self-oscillation.
- Page 3 Env stomp switch: Turns the envelope follower off (LED lit blue) or on (LED lit turquoise). When off (blue), the filter's frequency will not respond to your playing dynamics, which can be useful as a static filter or for sweeping with the expression pedal.
- Page 4 Range and interactivity The Xerograph Deluxe is designed to be a powerful, versatile tool for creating classic, modern, and unique sounds. The controls have a wider range than is commonly found in effects pedals, so that the user is not limited to a small subset of possible sounds and techniques.
- Page 5 Quick start/a tour of sounds Start with all switches to the right, and all knobs down (counter- clockwise). Turn up the filter volume halfway, begin turning Frequency knob slowly while playing. You will hear frequencies gradually becoming audible, from low to high. Leaving Freq at about 9 o'clock, begin turning up Sensitivity so that you can hear the filter sweep up and down with each...
- Page 6 closer together or more sparsely. Switch to Down mode - in this mode you'll generally want to turn Freq much higher than it would be in up mode, and you may want a higher Sensitivity setting in this mode as well since we want to sweep far down from the maximum.
- Page 7 Expression pedals The Moog EP-3 is recommended to control Iron Ether pedals. Other expression pedals with resistance between 10k to 50k will work, if they are wire with wiper to tip. Bypass The XD features a relay-based true bypass system. When the pedal is bypassed, the signal is connected directly from the input jack to the output jack via a mechanical switch, and does not pass through any...
- Page 8 Use a power supply that can source at least this much current. Warranty Your Xerograph Deluxe is warranted for materials and manufacturing for one year from the date of purchase. The warranty is void if you use the wrong type of power supply, take it apart, attempt to modify it, or use it in a way not intended.
