Feedback Description
Initial delay and all repeats are reversed.
Each repeat is shifted higher or lower
than the previous.
Each repeat is shifted higher or lower
than the previous.
The rst repeat is shifted. Subsequent
repeats stay at the same pitch.
Shift Description
Transpose by semitones, +/- 12 semitone
range (25 steps).
Detune from a 4th down to a minor third
up (continuous).
Phase shifter (not available with reverse
feedback).

Thank you for purchasing the Red Panda Raster. The Raster is a digital delay with a pitch shifter integrated into the feed-
back loop. Knob responses are carefully tuned for exploration of self-oscillation and feedback on the verge of blowing
up, but it also works great for clean delays up to 750 ms.
The pitch shifter operates in three modes, with three types of feedback, for a total of 8 dierent combinations:

WARRANTY
This product is warranted against defects in materials or workmanship for one (1) year from date of original purchase. It
does not cover damages or wear resulting from accident, misuse, abuse, or unauthorized adjustment and/or repair.
Should this product require service (or replacement at our option) while under warranty, please contact
info@redpandalab.com.
SHIFT
Amount of pitch or phase shift. When the SHIFT footswitch is disengaged (orange LED o), the signal is not shifted.
Plugging in an expression pedal will override the shift knob.
FDBK
Feedback intensity. Innite repeats occur with the knob at approximately 3:00. At settings above 3:00, the repeats gain
in strength for self-oscillation, distorted echoes, and feedback loops.
DELAY
Delay time, from approximately 20 to 750 milliseconds. Short delays with high feedback will create resonance or self-os-
cillation, especially when the shift knob is near zero. The delay knob is tuned for short delays. By carefully adjusting the
delay time and feedback, you can create chaotic self-oscillating drones.
BLEND
Adjusts output from 100% dry to 100% wet.
POWER
Red Panda pedals require a 9V DC center negative, regulated power supply (Boss style). A few examples are the Boss
PSA-120S, Visual Sound One Spot, and the Voodoo Lab Pedal Power series. Using an incorrect power supply may dam-
age your pedal.

Summary

Red Panda Raster Features

Raster Control Knobs

Explains SHIFT, FDBK, DELAY, and BLEND knobs for pitch, feedback, delay time, and wet/dry mix.

Feedback and Shift Modes

Details 8 combinations of feedback and pitch shift modes for varied sonic textures.

Power and Warranty

Power Supply Requirements

Requires a 9V DC center negative regulated power supply; improper use can cause damage.

Product Warranty

Covers defects for one year; excludes damage from misuse, accident, or unauthorized repair.

Creative Sound Design Techniques

Chorused and Harmony Delays

Achieve chorused effects with detune/phase modes; use transpose for octave/harmony repeats.

Self-Oscillation and Overdriven Feedback

Create psychedelic resonant sounds or distorted, squelchy feedback using specific knob settings.

Pitch Shifting and Reverse Effects

Explore semitone shifts, continuous detuning, reversed repeats, and flanging effects.

Organ and Arpeggio Sounds

Utilize transpose mode for organ-like tones and arpeggiated sequences with harmonic stacking.

External Control Integration

Expression Pedal Compatibility

Compatible with 10k-50k ohm linear pots; examples include Roland EV-5, Moog EP-3.

Control Voltage Input

Accepts 0-3.3V on the tip; use TRS cable with unconnected ring for optimal performance.
