Old Blood Noise Endeavors | 7 years ago

Here it is, the part where we talk about what it is we've made. The Old Blood Noise Endeavors Excess is a combination of a high gain distortion pedal pushed into lush chorus or short repeats delay. It is a multitude of specific sounds, both old and new, all in one box. The chain of effects can be switched between Series (Distortion into Modulation) or Parallel, creating a unique combination of clean and dirty.

Controls
DIST VOL : Controls the overall level of the Distortion effect.
DIST TONE : Controls the tone of the Distortion effect, bassier, muddier tones to the left, sharper, cutting treble to the right.
DIST : Controls the gain of the Distortion effect.
MOD VOL : Controls the overall level of the Modulation effect.
RATE / TIME : Controls the Rate of the Chorus effect or the Time of the Delay effect.
DEPTH / FBK : Controls the Depth of the Chorus effect or the Feedback of the Delay effect.
SERIES / PARALLEL Toggle : Switches the effect chain from Distortion into Modulation (SERIES) or Distortion and Modulation in running in parallel independent of each other.
BYPASS : Turns the effect on or off.
CHORUS / DELAY : Changes Modulation effect from Chorus (Blue LED) to Delay (Red LED).
EXP SEL : Selects which control is linked to the Expression Input when an Expression Pedal is plugged in. Switchable between RATE / TIME and DEPTH / FBK controls.
EXP : Expression Input

The Expression jack is used to externally control either the RATE / TIME or DEPTH / FBK controls. By plugging in an expression pedal, you bypass the knob in order to change the parameter on the fly with your foot. There is a switch (EXP SEL) on the top of the pedal next to the 9V DC Jack to change which knob is controlled by the Expression Input.
