PANTHER CUB
ANALOG TAP TEMPO DELAY
CONTROLS
MIX – Controls the volume of the delay repeats only.
FEEDBACK– Controls the amount of delay repeats. In “Stock” (non-ROAR) mode the Panther Cub is designed to produced a warmer
slightly darker repeat with less run-away oscillation sensitivity. In “ROAR” mode, the Panther Cub is designed to produce more
run-away oscillation when Feedback Knob is set above 12 o’clock – 3 o’clock. The higher the Feedback Knob is set, the greater the
amout of run-away oscillation will occur. Rollback the Feedback Knob below 12–3 o’clock to reduce and control the run-away.
TIME – Controls the delay time up 1000ms.
MODULATION SPEED – Controls the speed of the modulation.
MODULATION DEPTH – Controls the depth of the modulation. Roll this knob to the left to reduce or eliminate Modulation.
RATIO – Controls the tap subdivision: Quarter, Dotted-eighth, Eighth, and Triplet note divisions. The setting of the Ratio control
applies constantly whether using Tap Tempo or when manually adjusting the Time knob.
INTERNAL CONTROLS
ROAR SWITCH – With the backplate removed you will see a small dip-switch located towards the top-right corner of the
LEFT position the pedal is in Stock or
non-ROAR mode. When the switch is in the RIGHT position the pedal is in the ROAR mode. Panther Cub pedals are shipped
directly from the JHS Pedals workshop in Stock (non-ROAR) mode.
STOCK MODE – Dip-switch in LEFT position, produces slightly darker/warmer repeats
and more subtle run-away oscillation sensitivity.
ROAR MODE – Dip-switch in RIGHT position, produces a slightly brighter repeat and is more
sensitive to run-away oscillation in this mode. If run-away oscillation is too
intense to your liking, roll back the Feedback knob until it cleans up to your taste.
TAP/EXPRESSION SWITCH – With the backplate removed you will see a small dip-switch located towards the bottom-center
of the circuit board. This 2-position dip-switch is labeled and gives you the option to use the corresponding 1/4” jack as an external
Tap Tempo jack Input for Sync’ing or a Tap Tempo jack Output for slaving. With the switch in the right position, the corresponding
1/4” jack can be used with any TRS Expresion Pedal (we suggest M-Audio expression pedal) while in “Program Mode.”
PROGRAM MODE
The Panther Cub also includes Program Mode which functions exactly as it did in the Panther Analog Delay pedal. To enter
Mode. While in Program Mode, you can assign an Expression Pedal to control one of the following by turning the knob:
Time, Mod Speed, Mod Depth, Ratio. Once you turn the knob of your choice, exit Program Mode by hitting the tap tempo switch.
After exiting Program Mode, your expression pedal will now control the function of the knob you chose.
POWER
This pedal cannot be powered by a 9V battery. It requires the use of a standard 9V DC, regulated, center-pin negative power.
Use of a power supply other than mentioned may cause damage to the pedal and void the warranty of this unit. To avoid
damage of your pedal, please do not use AC power or supplies providing other than 9V of power. 100mA consumption.
FEATURES & SPECS
Thanks for purchasing a Panther Cub Analog Delay pedal! In 2011 we released the Panther Analog Delay, almost exactly
two years later we tried a nearly impossible feat of taking everything we love about the Panther Delay, making a few
improvements, and packaging it into an enclosure half the size. We are proud to bring you the Panther Cub with true Bucket
Brigade delay that has the tone and options to cover any style, any use, and any player. The Panther Cub Delay has a
1/4, dotted 1/8th, 1/8th, and Triplet divisions. The built in “Modulation” gives you a shimmery Deluxe Memory Man type vibe
When in use, whatever
repeats only.
