We've added a droning feedback loop where the reverb is fed back on itself to create short blasts of reverb wash or layers of droning reverb. It’s a feature rich pedal with multiple controls to fine tune the main reverb and the drones. We've colour coded the controls and we'll start with the standard reverb ones. These are black on the standard version of the pedal. We have dwell, tone, mix and master which we'll cover in detail below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe feedback\/drone has the drone tone, volume and dirt controls plus a toggle that switches the momentary “drone” footswitch between normally on or normally off operation. The standard position is off with the toggle down. Set this way we engage the drone footswitch to create swells and drones. When the toggle is set to on we can use the volume control to build up drones and the footswitch to pause them. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOn\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003efootswitch turns on the effect or bypasses it, the LED on top right indicates when the effect is engaged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDwell\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003econtrol works like a traditional dwell control up to about half way through it's travel  controlling the length of the reverb decay.

Centre is balanced, turn it clockwise for brighter drones and counter for darker. The combination of the Drone Tone and the Tone can work as a sort of band pass filter.
