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
