Controls (Bass)
Note: The four top-level knob controls (Drive, Level, Mix, and Treble) can be reassigned in the Neuro
Mobile App and Neuro Desktop Editor from a list of many possible parameters.
The only main difference in Controls on the Ultrawave Bass is that a MIX knob replaces the SUSTAIN
knob on the guitar version. The MIX control is a dry to wet crossfade control. Fully clockwise on the
knob is full "wet", meaning no clean signal is present, only signal distorted or manipulated by the
Ultrawave will be heard. At noon, there is a 50/50 clean mix, and at fully counterclockwise, the
signal is fully clean (no distortion).

Theory of Operation

A graphic or parametric EQ is a simple and common form of multiband processor. In that case, the
signal is split into separate frequency bands, levels in each band are set, and then the signal is
recombined. By controlling the levels in each band, a wide variety of tones can be created. The
Ultrawave takes this basic concept of multiband processing to a much higher level in the following
ways:
•
applying varying levels and types of distortion.
•
applying optional tremolo and phase offsets to each band.
•
applying compression before or after the multiband processing.
