Hello World (Pedal)

Bringing our stereo granular sampler, Typhoon, to pedal format.  This removes all of the modulation jacks and replaces them with a set of dip switches that can used with external modulation or the onboard LFO.

Two expression jacks for pedal control:

1. Modulation - You can send either the LFO or steady voltage to this jack and then use the dip switches to control which parameters the modulation applies to.
2. Level - Control the input level to allow your reverb tails and effects to taper off naturally.

Requires a 9V tip negative power supply with at least 500mA.

Usage tips:

Press and hold time to swap between modes, then press the time to cycle through the options (* = lit LED)

1. Use the mute buttons next to the VU meters to mute either the input or output.
2. Press and hold both mute buttons for 2s to start/stop the internal LFO.  It is easiest to see the LFO start if you have a dip switch in the up position for one of the sliders (POS, DENS, SIZE, RVB).
3. Hold the trig button and turn the pan knob to control the internal LFO rate.  The rate becomes effective when the TRIG button is released.  The freeze button flashing will not change rate.
