Using the Pedal
Control Knobs
Mix Knob
The Mix knob controls the overall loudness of the repeats. Rotating fully counter-clockwise will set the repeats volume to minimum and fully clockwise to maximum. The Mix knob does not affect/remove any of your dry signal.
Repeats Knob
The Repeats knob controls the number of repeats that will be regenerated from the Eternity. Rotating fully counter-clockwise sets the repeats to minimum (one repeat) and full clockwise sets the repeats to maximum. At maximum settings, the repeats will not self-oscillate.
Filter Knob
The Filter knob controls the overall brightness of the repeats. Rotating fully counter-clockwise allows all frequencies to pass, when rotating clockwise the upper frequencies will be removed. Rotating fully clockwise sets a cutoff frequency at 1.5k hertz. The Filter knob does not affect/remove any frequencies from your dry signal
Cntrl1 Knob
The Cntrl1 knob varies per algorithm, please reference the Algorithm section for details pertaining to the Cntrl1 knob for each Algorithm.
Soft Click Switches
Bypass Switch
The Bypass Switch functions as the main navigation for the pedal, below outlines the functions attached to this switch.
- Short Press
- Performing a short press will engage/disengage the pedal. When engaged, the Bypass LED will illuminate and the delay signal will be heard. This is called “Live Mode”, the sound of the delay will be heard based on the current settings of each knob, toggle switch, and the active Algorithm that is illuminated by the Repeats LED.
- Double Tap
- Performing a double tap will engage/disengage “Preset Mode”. When Preset Mode is engaged, the Tap LED will illuminate and the delay signal will be the sound that is saved in the current preset location. The current preset can be identified by the color of the Mix LED. When Preset Mode is engaged, the saved Algorithm can be identified by the color of the Repeats LED.
- Two Button Press (Tap & Bypass Switches)
- Performing a two button press will cycle through the stored presets. Each time a two button press is performed the color of the Mix LED will change, identify which preset is active or cue’d up. If the pedal is in Preset Mode, it will cycle through each preset and the new preset sound will be heard immediately. If the pedal is in Live Mode, you can cue up which preset will be heard when Preset Mode is engaged.
- Long Press
- Performing a long press (hold for 1 second and release) will cycle through the active algorithm. Algorithms can be changed at any time in both Live Mode and Preset Mode
Tap Switch
The Tap Switch is dedicated to tap tempo. To set a tempo you must press the tap switch at least 3 times, anything less and the tempo will not update. The tap tempo may take longer to update than other delay pedals however we feel accuracy is more important than speed. Our tap system is the most accurate tap tempo on the market and this is achieved by averaging the tempo based on the number of taps it receives. In other words, the more taps you enter into the Eternity the more accurate the tempo will be.
