User Manual

RATE – The Rate knob allows you to control the speed of the main LFO.
SECONDARY FUNCTION: MOMENTARY LFO RATE - The Rate knob also allows you to set the
momentary LFO rate. While the pedal is engaged, hold down the bypass switch and turn the Rate knob.
The Bypass LED will blink at the momentary LFO rate and will turn solid once you release the Bypass
switch, storing your momentary LFO rate setting. See Momentary Features section to learn more.
DEPTH – The Depth knob controls the strength of the chorus and vibrato effect by setting the
amplitude of the LFO.
SECONDARY FUNCTION: DRIFT - The secondary function of the Depth knob sets the amount of
“Drift” applied to the LFO. The Drift feature on the Julianna gently speeds up and slows down the current
rate of the LFO based on the amount of Drift applied. It’s like a little robot is inside your pedal moving
the Rate knob up and down. Lower settings offer a small amount of Drift while higher settings are more
dramatic. To introduce Drift, hold down the Bypass switch, with the pedal engaged and turn the Depth
knob to the desired setting. To turn Drift off, follow the same procedure and set the Depth knob to zero.
LAG – The Lag knob lets you set the center delay time that the LFO modulates around. From smooth,
tight modulation at lower settings, to noisy and nauseating detune at maximum.
D-C-V BLEND – The DCV knob sets the ratio of dry to wet signal through the mono channel of the
Julianna. Traditional mono chorus sounds can be heard with the knob set around noon. Pitch vibrato is
found in the full clockwise position. The ground in between offers unique blends of chorus and vibrato
not commonly found on other chorus pedals.
When both outputs are connected, set the DCV knob to full counterclockwise to send your dry signal to
the mono output and vibrato signal to the stereo output for a traditional stereo chorus sound. Explore
other variations by turning the DCV knob up slightly to add some vibrato signal to the dry output
changing the stereo image.
DIV SWITCH – The Div switch lets you select a quarter note, quarter note triplet, or eighth note
multiplier to scale a tapped in tempo.
NOTE: the div switch only operates on a tapped tempo, not the Rate knob.
SHAPE SWITCH – The Shape toggle lets you select a sine, triangle, or random LFO wave to modulate
the pitch of your signal. There are no rules here. Sine is traditionally used for vibrato tones and triangle for
chorus, but feel free to change it up! The random wave is a true random LFO and is awesome for creating
unpredictable pitch vibrato effects. The random wave combined with the drift effect makes for seasick
unpredictability. Take some Dramamine and give it a try.
BYPASS LED - Illuminated when the effect is engaged and blinks the secondary LFO rate when
holding down the Bypass switch when the pedal is engaged. Note the Julianna remembers its last
known bypass state. If you turn your pedalboard off with the Julianna engaged, the next time you power
it up, it will automatically power up engaged. This is great for players who use a bypass looper to avoid
having to turn the pedal on manually each time they power on their pedalboard.
TAP LED – The Tap LED pulses at the rate of the LFO set by the Rate knob or the rate of a tapped in
tempo.
Building off of the lush, tonal landscapes that the Julia created,
Julianna is an all analog, digital LFO, stereo chorus/vibrato
with new expanded features. Julianna is able to produce mild
smooth chorus, to seasick vibrato and everywhere in between.
The familiar controls like Lag, Dry-Chorus-Vibrato Blend, and
selectable LFO wave shapes are all still here but Julianna
employs some new tricks. Secondary LFO speed, modulation
drift, tap/expression control and momentary features
will have you commanding all new kinds of sounds
not found in traditional chorus pedals.
