Global Controls:

18. WHAMMY RANGE – This dial determines the maximum amount of pitch

bend assigned to the 20K TRS expression pedal.

Note: The expression pedal lowers the pitch of the VCO and Ring Modulator as
the treadle is pushed back, towards the heel side.

Tuning of the VCO and Ring Mod should always be done with the expression
pedal set all the way forward, towards the toe side.

Once you are in tune, use the WHAMMY RANGE dial to set the maximum
amount of pitch bend by pushing the expression pedal all the way back
towards the heel side and turning the WHAMMY RANGE dial to reach the
desired interval.

19. GLIDE – This dial determines the duration (glide time) of the portamento

effect.

20. CLEAN SIGNAL LEVEL – This dial determines the volume of the clean signal

voice.

21. SUB OCTAVE LEVEL – This dial determines the volume of the Sub Octave

voice.

22. MASTER VOLUME – This dial determines the total output volume of the

Mothership.

Getting Started:

Basic Hook Up

1. Unpack your Mothership and place it on a flat, stable surface.

2. Make sure you are using the 48-Volt DC (negative center) power

supply that came with your Pigtronix Mothership.

3. Plug the power cord into the 48VDC jack on the back of the

Mothership and then plug the power adaptor into an electrical
socket.

The Mothership is now powered up. To turn the device off, unplug it
from the wall or turn off the power going to the 48VDC supply.

We recommend that you do not leave your Mothership powered up
for long periods of time when it is not in use.

4. Plug your instrument into the “IN” jack and plug your Amplifier into the

“OUT” jack.
