controls the flanger's modulation rate. The DAMPING/TONE knob controls the flanger's

resonance.

ECHO – turns your Cathedral into a digital echo. You can tap in the delay time using the

TAP/INIFINITE footswitch, or dial it in using the PRE-DELAY knob. Set the number of echo

repeats by using the FEEDBACK knob. The DAMPING/TONE control can be used to either

low pass or high pass filter the echo repeats. The REVERB TIME knob can be used to

smear the repeats so that it sounds more like a reverb than an echo effect.

MODE KNOB

This is the white knob located in the upper right corner of your Cathedral. The MODE knob

is a rotary encoder enabling the user to scroll through the 8 Modes of the Cathedral. Turn

the knob clockwise to progress up through the modes: from ECHO to GRAIL SPRING mode.

Turn the knob counter-clockwise to progress down through the modes: from GRAIL

SPRING to ECHO mode.

The MODE knob also has a push switch to save and load presets. To load a preset, turn the

MODE knob to select the desired mode and then give the MODE knob a quick tap: push it

down then release it. To save a preset, push down and hold the MODE knob for 3 seconds.

You will then see all of the mode LEDs blink rapidly. Continue to hold down the MODE knob

until the LEDs stop blinking. At this point the preset is saved and you can release the knob.

Only one preset is saved per mode and the preset you save is based on the current mode.

In all modes except ECHO mode the PRE-DELAY knob sets the pre-delay time for the

reverb block. Pre-Delay allows the musician to put a time delay between playing a note and

hearing the onset of reverb for that note. In ECHO mode, the PRE-DELAY knob sets the

delay time for the echoes. The total range pre-delay and delay is from 0 to 2 Seconds. As

you turn the knob clockwise, the delay time will increase.

Please Note: the pre-delay time for all modes can also be set by the TAP/INFINTE

footswitch. The control that takes precedence is the one that is last touched. If you tap in a

delay time, then turn the PRE-DELAY knob, the tap time will be erased and the new delay

time will be determined by where the PRE-DELAY knob is set.
