Auto Decay & Attack Modes
While in Auto mode, by default, the Speed knob
controls the decay time of the freeze effect. The
higher the Speed knob setting, the longer the
decay time. At maximum, the frozen signal does
not decay, it continues indefinitely. Optionally, you
can change the Speed knob to control attack time
instead of decay. In this case, the higher the Speed
knob setting, the slower the attack time.
To change the Auto Speed knob to Attack mode,
do the following:
1. Press and hold the MODE button.
2. After two seconds, the LED rapidly cycles through
its three colors.
3. Release the button; Auto Attack is now selected.
4. Repeat this procedure to change back to Auto
Decay.
The Auto Speed knob setting is remembered through
power-cycles so you can set it and forget it.
Bypass Modes & Selection
The Deep Freeze features three distinct bypass
topologies:
Digital Bypass (Green) This is the default bypass
type. In this scenario your signal is fully digital even
in bypass. This bypass type allows for the smooth-
est transitions when entering and exiting bypass.
Analog Bypass (Orange) The bypass signal is analog
and buffered. Analog bypass gives you the purest,
least-colored sound in bypass mode.
Hybrid Bypass (Red) When you switch from effect
to bypass, your bypass signal is initially digital, but
the pedal will seamlessly switch to analog bypass
when there’s a brief gap in your playing. Hybrid
Bypass allows for a smooth transition from effect
to bypass, while allowing your bypass signal to be
analog the vast majority of the time.
Digital bypass is selected by default from the factory.
To change the bypass topology, do the following:
1. Power down the Deep Freeze.
2. Press and hold the footswitch.
3. While holding down the footswitch, apply power
to the unit.
4. Continue to hold down the footswitch. After
about 2 seconds, the LED begins blinking rapidly.
5. Release the footswitch. The color of the blinking
LED represents the current bypass setting. Green
is digital, orange is Analog, and red is Hybrid.
6. Press and release the MODE button. The LED
color changes with each press.
7. When the LED color matches your desired bypass
mode, press and release the footswitch once.
The bypass mode setting is remembered through
power-cycles so you can set it and forget it.
