The MINI-ARK is a monophonic tracking device. This means that it works very differently on
different types of sounds. For example, a monophonic guitar line is going to achieve far different results
than a super compressed drum track. Snazzy FX recommends that you first think about the source you
are putting into the box, and then adjust accordingly.
The Mini-ARK was designed with four goals in mind
1. to work with as many different signals as possible
2. to track quickly
3. to allow for subtle as well as ridiculous sounds
4. to allow basic control over an external VCO and ADSR/VCA when using a bass or guitar using
the GATE and SQUARE outputs (gate connects to gate in on an ADSR and SQUARE connects
to the SYNC IN on an external VCO)
At times this means that there may be a trade-off between playability and precision. It also means that in
some cases, the difference between a mild enhancement of tone and something akin to a siren, are just
the turn of a knob away.
If you are plugging in a synthesizer or some other musical source (an mp3 player, field recordings, drum
loops, etc) you will want to adjust both the Volume of your audio source, and the SENSITIVITY, of the
MINI-ARK until you get the desired effect.
