Beam Splitter takes one signal and makes three copies of it, each with differing overdrive voices and delay times. It is specifically our way of creating a huge sound out of a regular one. Output can be kept in parallel mono or split individually to three places. While the goal is singular bigness, you can also find strange filters, flangers, lo-fi vibratos, and trailing slap-back echoes using the delay controls and blending everything to taste.
Controls include:
Gain, Volume, and Tone to shape the amount of distortion, overall volume, and brightness of each drive section
Time to introduce delays up to 125mS on the green and blue sections
Decay to add intense filtering or trailing delays, depending on Time
Deviate to randomly vary the delay time, giving a more natural feel and chorus effect
Top jacks for summed parallel mono output or split output for each drive
Expression jack to externally control Deviate knob
Soft-touch bypass footswitch for true bypass and minimal switch noise
Requires 9V DC center negative 2.1mm jack power supply capable of 150mA (not included).
