volume), you can achieve drastically different curves
that have the feel of the more traditional low pass filter
type tone control.
Want to elevate your sonic spirit to a higher level? Try
running Zoar at higher voltage! Zoar can handle power up
to 18v DC. Higher voltages will yield a different frequency
response with more defined dynamics and a faster
response. When powered at 18v, the range of clean
tones are widened, dirty tones become punchier with
better note articulation, low frequencies are tightened,
the Treble control will cover a broader spectrum without
becoming harsh and the output volume nearly doubles!
The experience is not unlike plugging into a wall of high
wattage tube amplifiers!
Each Zoar Dynamic Audio Grinder is crafted just north
of Zoar mountain in the EarthQuaker Devices colony by
many delightful humans and one loving robot under the
guiding spirit of the Zoarites.
CONTROLS
LEVEL
Adjusts the output volume.
WEIGHT
This is an input frequency control that
changes the voice and saturation of the
distortion. Turning Weight clockwise allows
more low frequencies to pass through. This
increases the gain, allows lower frequencies
to clip faster and can shift the tone of the
pedal from tight distortion to a loose fuzz.
GAIN
Turn clockwise to increase distortion. This
adjusts the transistor bias. A little static
sound when turning is completely normal.
BASS
Passive bass control, adjusts the low
frequency content between 0 and 800Hz
+/- 15dB.
MIDDLE
Passive middle control, adjusts the midrange
frequency content between 500Hz and 3kHz
+/- 10dB.
TREBLE
Passive treble control, adjusts the high
frequency content between 1kHz and 10kHz
+/-15dB.
PRO TIP
Start with Bass, Middle and Treble set at
Noon and adjust from there. These controls
are highly interactive and tunable. A little
movement goes a long way.
