The M1 is a powerful multi-function  modulation machine with six customized, studio-quality programs: Chorus,  Phaser, Tremolo, Vibrato, Rotary, and Filter. Each program has a wealth  of options to tune, tweak, customize and then save to one of nine  onboard presets. A sound explorers delight, the M1 features a dedicated  lo-fi knob allowing you to mix various lo-fi parameters to every  program. Add subtle movement and texture to float under your playing or  make a massive statement with a thick swirling chorus to choppy panning  tremolo. Write your sonic story in any style and genre with the M1  High-Fidelity Modulation Machine.

Programs

Chorus –

Find subtle chorus to be vibrant and lush tri-chorus that will  instantly teleport you to the 80s. Type I is a traditional chorus great  for tight smooth chorus tones. Type II adds a second chorus with an  offset rate and depth. Thanks to the constructive interface, it has a  more dramatic character caused by essentially running two chorus pedals  in series. Type III finds its roots in the classic tri-chorus effect  running three chorus units in parallel for a lush multi-dimensional  chorus.

X knob controls Lag to set the maximum allowed amount of pitch detuning.

Classic 70s phaser sounds we all know  and love, with added features that you wouldn’t expect. Similar to the  Lillian, Type I is a 2-Stage Phaser that produces a single notch to the  classic mild phaser. Type II is a 4-Stage model producing 2 notches for a  stronger effect. Type III is a phaser modeled after the unique tuning  and LFO shape found in a Uni-Vibe.Phaser -

X knob determines the amount of phase shifted signal that is fed back to the effect input.

This program emulates a tremolo with  three algorithms containing all the bells, whistles, and even a cherry  on top. Type I is excellent for traditional sounds similar to optical  and bias tremolos that raise and lower the entire frequency range –  similar to the Monument in standard mode. Type II is a warm and cozy  harmonic tremolo – similar to the Monument in harmonic mode. This unique  sound is formed by raising and lowering your high and low frequencies  opposite each other. Type III offers several predefined patterns for  rhythmic sequenced pulsing tremolo.Tremolo -

X knob manipulates the phase of the left and right volume modulation for a wide stereo panning effect.

Shape and Symmetry in Type III (pattern Trem) select the pattern group and patterns within each group.

Make good parts great with detuned,  warbly, and vintage sounds that harken back to the 60s. Type I focuses  on traditional vibrato sounds. Old record players inspire type II with  classic RPM’s on the rate knob and some noise character you’d find in  your dad’s old dusty Speedwagon LPs. The rate knob can select 33rpm,  45rpm, and 78rpm speeds in this mode. Type III is our take on the wow  and flutter pitch characters found in old tape players. Warm and  charming with a hint of nostalgia.Vibrato -

X knob (Standard and Vinyl) Stereo Phase: controls the phase of the right output in relation to the left output.

X knob (Tape) Flutter: control the depth of the flutter effect  applied within the tape vibrato type. This is a faster fluttering type  detune.

Because you can’t fit a Leslie speaker  on your pedalboard, type I aims for that traditional watery sound of a  well-oiled Leslie speaker. Type II only spins the horn but still plays  the sound out of the drum. Type III only spins the drum but still plays  sound from the horn.Rotary -

X - Cab Simulation: controls the mix of a physical rotary cabinet model into your signal.

Add tone-shaping movement to your  signal with different modulated filters. Type I is a lowpass filter good  for modulated darker tones. Type II is a highpass filter used to  creatively modulate your low frequencies. Type III is a bandpass filter  forming a sliding “window” of frequencies.  Drive the filter frequency  with the main LFO or do things like set the depth to zero and turn up  the LO-FI envelope control to drive the filter frequency with your  playing dynamics.Filter -

X knob controls filter resonance, bringing a more aggressive sound to the selected filter.

Tone controls the filter’s center frequency or starting frequency where the modulation is applied.

Presets

The M1 can save up to nine onboard presets, and 128  are accessible via MIDI. On-board presets are accessible with the bank  switch. Cycle between presets in each bank by pressing Bypass and tap  simultaneously. You will see the right LED change from Red to Green to  Blue. Any adjustments made in a preset will change the tap LED to  purple, indicating you have edited the preset.

Tune

The Tune knob and toggle switch offer creative control over three  additional modulation parameters and three “lo-fi” effects. These allow  you to shape further each modulation program to taste. The lo-fi effects  can add additional character and movement to your sound.

• Tone: Controls the overall tone of your signal passing through the M1.
• Symmetry: Controls the symmetry of the LFO waveshape modulating your signal with noon being “normal’ or fully symmetric.
• X: Controls different parameters depending on the selected Program and Type.

Tweak

Each program can be fully customized to give you creative control  over three different key modulation parameters as well as three “lo-fi”  effects, allowing you to shape each program to taste.

• Shape: Choose sine, triangle, or square LFO wave shapes to modulate your signal.
• Division: Controls the tap division used by the M1 to set the LFO  speed when tapping a tempo. Choose between quarter, eighth, and quarter  note triplet.
• Type: Selects one of three different types for each program on the M1.

Input/Output

The M1 offers multiple input and output configurations.

• Mono In / Mono Out
• Mono In / Stereo Out
• Stereo In / Stereo Out

Momentary Functions

Press and hold the TAP/SKIP to momentarily engage a “skipping”  effect like a needle skipping on a record player. Press and hold to  engage the effect, which automatically repeats the last few milliseconds  of audio until the switch is released.
