SPEED Knob: Depending on the modulation source, the SPEED knob controls
either the rate of the LFO, the attack and decay times of the envelope followers, or
the “Smoothing” of the Hot Hand.
When using the LFO modulation ( , , , or ), turning the SPEED
knob clock-wise will increase the modulation rate.
When using the Slow Attack Envelope Follower ( ), turning the SPEED knob
clock-wise shortens the time of the Attack and the Decay, which is the rise and fall
of the control signal. In this setting, the Attack and Decay are set proportionally to
each other. When using the Fast Attack Envelope Follower ( ), turning the
SPEED knob clock-wise lengthens the time of the Decay only. The Attack is
programmed at a “fast” rate, which matches the fastest setting of the Slow Attack
Envelope Follower.
While Hot Hand is engaged, the SPEED knob controls the amount of “Smoothing”.
Turning the SPEED knob clock-wise increases the “Smoothing”, and makes Hot
Hand less responsive and less jittery sounding.
Discovering Preset Knob Positions
Since the STINGRAY preset values can differ from the physical knob positions, it
may be useful to determine the positions of the preset knob values. To start the
process, put the pedal in bypass mode and set all the knobs to their full
counter-clockwise positions. Next, enable the preset, and slowly turn each knob
up one at a time, until the preset indicator LED begins to blink rapidly. This rapid
blinking indicates that the current position of the knob matches the saved value.

EFFECT TYPES
Filter effects are used to enhance or remove certain frequencies as they
modulate your instrument’s signal. The STINGRAY features a wide variety of
filter types that can create dramatically different sounding effects. In some
cases, the STINGRAY combines multiple filter types to create a single filter
effect.
By default (Normal Mode), there are 12 filter effects found on the EFFECT
SELECT
OR knob. This can be expanded to 24 filter effects by using the
Extended Mode. This addition allows users to access all of the effect types
from our popular Soundblox Bass Envelope Filter, Soundblox Guitar Envelope
Filter, Soundblox Poly-Mod Filter Pro, and Soundblox Pro Bass Envelope Filter.
Extended Mode uses the same filter types as Normal Mode but integrates an
additional 12 filter effects that are indicated by two adjacent LEDs lit
simultaneously on the EFFECT SELECTOR knob.
