Xerograph Deluxe

The Xerograph Deluxe by Iron Ether is a 4-pole resonant lowpass filter pedal designed for creating classic, modern, and unique sounds. It features low- noise, low-distortion active components chosen for excellent audio fidelity. The pedal measures 4.7" and runs on an industry-standard 9-volt DC center- negative power supply with a 150mA current draw. It is equipped with a relay- based true bypass system for quiet switching and greater reliability. Key features and controls include: \- Frequency knob: Sets the base cutoff frequency of the filter and can be used with an expression pedal to sweep the cutoff frequency. \- S/F switch: Selects slow or fast envelopes. \- 2/4 switch: Selects between 2-pole and 4-pole modes, offering different resonance characteristics. \- Resonance knob: Adds feedback around the filter, boosting a narrow band of frequencies around the cutoff. \- Filter Vol: Controls the output volume of the filter signal. \- Clean Vol: Controls the volume of the unfiltered signal, mixed in with the filter. \- Sensitivity knob: Controls how much the playing dynamics will sweep the filter cutoff. \- Up/Down switch: Controls the direction of sweep for the envelope follower. The Xerograph Deluxe allows the cutoff of the filter to be modulated by three separate sources: the Frequency knob, input dynamics, and the expression pedal, providing a wide range of sound sculpting capabilities. The pedal is designed to be used with the Moog EP-3 expression pedal, which is wired to correctly interface with the Xerograph Deluxe and has a range attenuator knob for setting the range of the sweep. The pedal is warranted for materials and manufacturing for one year from the date of purchase and features a unique, individually machine-engraved and hand-painted finish. It is recommended to use it with other Iron Ether pedals such as the Oxide, Subterranea, QF2, and FrantaBit for different varieties of harmonic richness.

QF2

The QF2 by Iron Ether is an innovative distortion pedal that divides the incoming signal into four distinct frequency bands, each of which is individually processed through its dedicated distortion module. The central frequencies of these four filters are adjustable, covering a sweeping range of three octaves. This intricate parallel processing generates novel sonic textures and enhances the playability of complex chords, ensuring a more refined, sustained sound with reduced harshness and heightened clarity. Rooted in the legacy of Craig Anderton's original 1985 "Quadrafuzz" rack-mount effect, the QF2 has been completely reimagined, featuring augmented resonance controls for each channel and a comprehensive frequency control that simultaneously adjusts all four filters, imparting unique vocal-like characteristics. Additionally, the inclusion of an expression pedal input for this frequency control invites real-time dynamic manipulation. The pedal is capable of producing a diverse array of tones, from subtle, low- gain overdrive to velvety smooth sustain, gritty distortion, defined crunchy fuzz, organic analog octave elevation, and distinctive synth and fuzz-wah effects. The standard QF2 Copper model is further enhanced with a Dry control, allowing for a seamless blend of the unaffected signal with the processed output, offering an expanded palette of tonal possibilities.

Oxide

The Oxide by Iron Ether is a morphing gated fuzz pedal designed to seamlessly morph between a raucous, industrial octave fuzz inspired by the Maestro Bass Brassmaster and a modern synthy fuzz with a pinched, gated sound. It includes a clean blend to allow extreme amounts of fuzz without losing low end. The technical specifications and features are as follows: \- Controls: \- Drive amount: Controls how hard the transformer is driven, generating octave up harmonics at low levels and becoming further saturated at higher levels. \- Morph: Changes the response of the fuzz, with the ability to shift the response, dynamics, and harmonic content. \- Voice switch: Switches the post-fuzz filtering between two different voicings, one with a soft mid-scoop and the other with a pronounced vocal-like mid-boost. \- Strangle switch: Cuts low frequencies in front of the fuzz, allowing only the high frequencies to be fuzzed. Blending in the clean signal while using this mode allows for clean bass with fuzzed harmonics. \- EQ: Progressively cuts high frequencies while leaving mids and bass flat. \- Fuzz level: Controls the volume level of the fuzzed signal in the final mix. \- Clean level: Controls the volume level of the clean signal in the final mix, with a slightly gritty sound and the ability to be overdriven. \- Power supply: The Oxide runs on the industry-standard 9-volt DC center- negative power supply, drawing 45 mA. \- Bypass: The Oxide features a click-free relay-based true bypass system, ensuring that the signal does not pass through any buffers, electronic switching, or other circuitry when bypassed. \- Finish: Each Oxide is individually machine-engraved and painted by hand, resulting in individual variations. \- Warranty: The Oxide is warranted for materials and manufacturing for one year from the date of purchase.
