"push.pull spectrum
pulse synth harmonics
phase (un)locked loops
(glitch oscillator/decimator edition)

see pedal on website here: http://www.coloringpad.org

The push.pull pedal is a synth effect based upon the PLL (Phase Locked Loop) IC, in which the PLL has been "unlocked" and let loose through 16 knobs, a joystick, switches, and a light controlled filter. It is hard to describe the sounds I have already heard: distorted, glitchy, fuzz, bass synth, drone, full of clicks, 8 bit, and erratic synthetic hyperdrive.

16 knobs
1 Joysick contolling four oscillators
Ocsillators intertwined in the PLL circuitry
Spectrum Controlled light modulation and filters
Filter section added
Voltage Starve
PLL Voltage Starve Oscillator
Octave divider
Strong Preamp
4 switches adding longer capacitator times and alternate routing of resistors
Mixing section for oscillators
Bright blue led pulses with PLL
Self-Oscillate Mode



Surface constructed from recycled circuit board.

Definitely one of a kind... 5 months to create."
