Electro-Harmonix PULSAR Quick Start Manual

Congratulations on your purchase of the Pulsar, a multi-functional variable shape tremolo pedal.
WAVE SHAPE Switch – Selects between the Wave Triangle Mode and the Square Wave Mode.
SHAPE Knob – Changes the shape of the wave form that modulates the Tremolo.
Wave Triangle Mode – As the SHAPE knob is turned from the Counter-Clockwise
(minimum) position to the Center (middle) position, the wave starts as a rising
Sawtooth and becomes a Triangle. From the Center position to the Clockwise
(maximum) position, the wave changes from a Triangle to a falling Sawtooth.
Square Wave Mode – As the SHAPE knob is turned from the Counter-Clockwise
(minimum) position to the Center (middle) position, the wave starts as a Small
Pulse Width Wave and becomes a Square Width Wave. From the Center position to
the Clockwise (maximum) position, the wave changes from a Square Width Wave
to a Large Pulse Width Wave.
DEPTH Knob – Adjusts the amount of Tremolo that will be applied to your signal. As the
INTENSITY knob is turned from the Counter-Clockwise (minimum) position to the Clockwise
(maximum) position, the amount of the effect will increase.
RATE Knob – Adjusts the speed of modulation for the effect. As the RATE knob is turned from
the Counter-Clockwise (minimum) position to the Clockwise (maximum) position, the rate of
modulation will increase.
RATE/STATUS LED – If the effect is engaged, the LED will blink at the same rate that the effect
modulates. If the LED is off, The Pulsar is in bypass mode. The footswitch engages/disengages
the effect.
