Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

From Other (Miscellanous Used/Vintage/Consign)

TARS is a fuzz/analog filter pedal. It means "This Audio Reached Singularity".

It’s a robot looking for life in space too. But that’s a long story we’ll tell you in the user manual.

TARS’ fuzz part comes from the Black Hole Symmetry "Singularity" section. 

Put it through the analog "MS-20 style" filter to create fuzzy-noisy textures. 

Cut through the mix with the different filter and EQ possibilites or sweep between the frequencies to create huge waves of noise.

Gain: Placed after the JFET transistor input stage and followed by silicon gain and clipping stages

Master: Master volume

CutOff: This fader controls the cutoff frequency of the MS-20 style low pass filter based on a LM13700 stage, goes from 15 Hz to 44 kHz

Resonance: Increases the intensity of the signal around the cutoff frequency

LPF VOL: VCA sets the output volume of the filter, useful to adjust the filter to your setup

2p/4p toggle switch: Select the attenuation curve, cut at -12 dB/octave (2p) or at -24 dB/octave (4p)

Add Fuzz (On/Off) toggle switch: Add an extra unfiltered fuzz signal, the result is louder and creates cool frequencies boost or cut depending on the cutoff position

S/P toggle switch: Put the fuzz through the filter in serial - or use both effects in //

Expression/CV: The Expression/CV control is linked to the cutoff fader, the cutoff fader value sets the lowest value the EXP pedal can go
