Mothership 2

Description

The Mothership pedal is a Monophonic Analog Guitar Synthesizer. This instrument is capable of tracking both guitar and bass guitar as well as keyboards, vocals, horns, drums and virtually any other monophonic sound source. While the Mothership will track only one note at a time, it tracks that one note very well. The Mothership’s analog pitch recognition system controls VCO, Sub Octave, and Intelligent Ring Modulator voices, that can be combined to output complex harmony and a huge variety of F.A.T. analog synthesizer tones. The Mothership’s sonic signature can be further animated with portamento (pitch glide) and tunable whammy control via expression pedal. This device will perform best when placed FIRST in your signal chain… put the Mothership before the Pigtronix Attack Sustain and any other pedals. In keeping with Pigtronix tradition, the controls on the Mothership have been tuned to provide the fattest possible tone and the widest range of musical possibilities. Jacks: 1. DC POWER 48-VOLTS – Use only the 48-Volt, 520mA, negative tip power supply that came with your Pigtronix Mothership. Using the wrong power supply is likely to result in a damaged pedal. 2. OUT – Effect output, Plug in your amp, mixer, or DI box here. 3. WHAMMY – This is the TRS 20K expression pedal input for pitch bend. 4. IN – Effect input, Plug in your instrument here. 5. SUB OUT – This jack is an auxiliary output for the low frequency content from the SUB OCTAVE and RING MODULATOR circuits only. WARNING: The SUB OUT should only be sent to an audio system that can handle significant amounts of low frequency content. 6. GLIDE REMOTE – This jack allows a TS latching remote switch to be connected in order to turn the glide (portamento) effect on and Footswitches: 7. INTELLIGENT RING MOD – This footswitch turns the Ring Modulator voice on and off. When in use, the Ring Modulator is present at both the OUTPUT and the SUB OUT 8. ENGAGE – This footswitch turns the entire Mothership on and off. When only the engage light is turned on, only the VCO and CLEAN SIGNAL can be heard. When the engage light is turned off, the Mothership is true bypassed. 9. SUB OCTAVE – This footswitch turns the Sub Octave function on and off. When in use, the Sub Octave is present at both the OUTPUT and the SUB OUT Ring Mod Dials: 10. RING MOD LEVEL – This dial determines the volume of the Intelligent Ring Modulator voice. 11. RING MOD TUNE – This dial determines the tuning of the Intelligent Ring Modulator voice. VCO Dials: 12. VCO LEVEL – This dial determines the volume of the VCO voice. 13. VCO TUNE – This dial determines the tuning of the VCO voice. 14. VCO FINE TUNE – This dial allows for precision adjustment of the VCO tuning. Toggles: 15. VCO WAVE – This switch determines the type of waveform created by the VCO. The left position is TRIANGLE WAVE, the center position is OFF (VCO mute) and the right position is SQUARE WAVE. 16. RING MOD SOURCE – This switch determines whether the Ring Modulator is tracking the input signal or the VCO signal. Each Ring Mod Source option imparts a different tonality to the ring modulator sound as well as changing the response to the whammy and glide functions. When set to INPUT, the harmonies created by the Ring Mod will move in a contrapuntal fashion, against the VCO. When set to VCO, the harmonies created by the ring mod will move in a parallel fashion, with the VCO 17. GLIDE – This switch turns the portamento function on and off. Global Controls: 18. WHAMMY RANGE – This dial determines the maximum amount of pitch bend assigned to the 20K TRS expression pedal. Note: The expression pedal lowers the pitch of the VCO and Ring Modulator as the treadle is pushed back, towards the heel side. Tuning of the VCO and Ring Mod should always be done with the expression pedal set all the way forward, towards the toe side. Once you are in tune, use the WHAMMY RANGE dial to set the maximum amount of pitch bend by pushing the expression pedal all the way back towards the heel side and turning the WHAMMY RANGE dial to reach the desired interval. 19. GLIDE – This dial determines the duration (glide time) of the portamento effect. 20. CLEAN SIGNAL LEVEL – This dial determines the volume of the clean signal voice. 21. SUB OCTAVE LEVEL – This dial determines the volume of the Sub Octave voice. 22. MASTER VOLUME – This dial determines the total output volume of the Mothership.
