The Chromatron is the result of 10 years tweaking, refining and reimagining the state variable filter circuit. It is an

optically-controlled analog filter that can switch between envelope control and manual control via expression pedal

with the push of a button. The envelope detector is an original design, producing a musical filter response that spans a

broad range of tones from vintage quack to future-synth psychedelica.

TIPS FOR GREAT TONE

A good starting point is to put the MIX knob full on, all

other knobs at 12 o'clock, RANGE and BAND down,

SWEEP up. From there, try turning each knob all the way

through its range and listen to the way the sound changes.

For a classic envelope filter sound, try short attack and

decay times.

Another fun setting is slow attack, fast decay and low

resonance, and setting the RANGE switch to the down

position. You can get sort of a slow gear-type sound with

this setting, where each note seems to apprear out of no-

where.

Octave and/or fuzz -> Chromatron is my favorite com-

bination, especially on bass. Use an expression pedal to

modulate the filter cutoff for huge synth-like sweeps.

Chromatron -> distortion is great for psychedelic rock

tones. The resonant peak of the filter will accentuate the

distortion around cutoff frequency.

Distortion -> Chromatron is perfect for dramatic, synth-

like filter sweeps. The filter will lop off the high frequen-

cies of the distortion as it sweeps down.

Chromatron -> delay is great for ambient textures, espe-

cially when using an expression pedal to sweep the filter.

Delay -> Chromatron is also very cool, as the delay re-

peats will be swallowed by the filter.
