1. Introduction There s no reverence for 1960 s fuzz tradition here There are SUBDECHAY HARMONIC ANTAGONIZER no germanium transistors or NOS parts It s not polite or smooth The Harmonic Antagonizer is not your typical fuzz box In fact the fuzz moniker is really inadequate It s really more of a fuzz oscillator chaos synthesizer tone destroyer noise machine etc It s not just for guitar either FREQ SENSE It s great on bass drum machines or just about any instrument you can plug in to it The essentials of this effect boil down to a square wave converter and a triggered oscillator There s more going on inside to turn that in to something that can be musical SUBDECAY S HARMONIC ANTAGONIZER ENVELOPE aa SQUARE GAIN WAVE CONVERTER OSCILATOR RIGGE R gt i CONTROL OSCILLATOR FREQUENCY CONTROL CaS 9 18 VOC INPUT VOLTAGE CONTROLLED AMPLIFIER SUBDECAY Fuzz Oscillator Chaos Synthezer USER GUIDE Version 1 00a ENVELOPE ba FOLLOWER en OSCILLATOR 2 OUTPUT Fuzz Oscillator Chaos Synthesizer SIMPLIFIED AUDIO AND CONTROL ARCHITECTURE READ THIS FIRST CONTROLS SENSE Sets envelope control level for the oscillator frequency Turn to fully left for fixed frequency oscillator As this knob is turned to the right playing dynamics will push the oscillator frequency higher This can be used for several different effects from pixelated pitch decay to fa2. ou want to clean it use a towel don t put it in the washing machine Send it back to us if it stops working Information in this user guide was believed to be accurate at the time it was created All content of this document is subject to change without notice

4. ux filter sweeps FREQ Manually controls the oscillator frequency At low settings the oscillator can produce suboctaves Set high it operates similar to a sync oscillator in a synthesizer While this page explains control functionality you ll likely learn more simply trying it for yourself This is not a traditional effect There s no widely familiar frame of reference that will prepare you for the Harmonic Antagonizer It will turn most any instrument in to a noise machine but there are no hard rules here Plug it in amp try it out The square wave converter creates the fuzz sound The oscillator is triggered for an effect similar to the sync function on a synthesizer The voltage controlled amplifier keeps the output from hard gating as the input trails off BLEND Mix control Turn to the left for square wave fuzz output Turn to the right for oscillator output When the oscillator gets wild the fuzz can be the sonic glue that holds it all together VOLUME Turn to the right to make it louder OUTPUT DC input Powered by a dedicated Class II regulated power supply with a negative center 2 1mm barrel plug Current draw under normal operation at 9VDC is less than 15mA If using a daisy chain power supply all other There are no hard rules here How you use it is up to you Getting started On the back page there is an explanation of the controls but really this is the kind of effec
