Catalinbread CSIDMAN Effects Pedal

<p>The first thing to keep in mind about the Csidman is that it completely embraces and makes no apologies for the fact that it is digital (though it does have a 100% analog dry path). Digital is Csidman's aesthetic as a delay pedal, it strives to reproduce echoes as true to the input as possible without filtering. When you utilize its scratched disc, stuttery, and glitchy behaviors, it is pseudo-random, yet gives you a certain amount of 'control' over the randomness. We've taken the idea of your old skipping portable CD player and incorporated it into a digital delay pedal that not only does normal delay sounds (at CD quality) but can also skip, stutter, and glitch just like your beloved old CD player!</p><h3>Powering Up the Csidman</h3><p>You can power your Csidman with any quality power supply designed for use with effects pedals. The output should be a negative tip DC from 9 to 18 volts. The Csidman does not run on batteries. If you want more volume, headroom, and percussive attack, try running an 18-volt power supply. A 9-volt power supply will have a slightly softer sound that saturates more easily.</p>

• Time: Controls the echo delay line’s delay time up to 725ms, as well as the rate of the glitch
• Mix: Gives you control over the wet/dry balance from 100% wet to 100% dry
• Feed: Controls the amount of feedback going back into the unit
• Cuts: (Used in conjunction with the Latch knob) controls the buffer memory length
• Latch: Controls the relative time in a cycle that the Csidman is in a latching skipping state
