electro-harmonix GIT0019771-000 Freeze Infinite Sound Retainer
Congratulations on your purchase of the Electro-Harmonix FREEZE pedal! At the simple push of a button, the FREEZE will allow you to sustain individual notes and chords indefinitely. With three different modes of operation, it’s easy to set up just the right type of sound retention for the club, the studio or your bedroom.
CONTROLS
EFFECT LEVEL
Controls the volume of the sustained sound. The output always contains the dry
signal at its original volume
WARNING : Your Freeze pedal comes equipped with an Electro-Harmonix 9 .6DC-200BI power supply (same as used by Boss™ & Ibanez™: 9.6 Volts DC 200mA). The Freeze requires 140mA at 9VDC with a plug that is center negative. The Freeze does not take batteries. Using the wrong adapter may damage your unit and void the warranty.
MODE SWITCH
Selects between one of three effect modes: FAST, SLOW, and LATCH. See the MODE
DESCRIPTIONS section for more detail.
STATUS LED
The LED is on while the effect is sounding or fading out. When the LED is off,
the effect is completely silenced and the output contains only the pure dry
signal.
INPUT JACK
Connect the output of your instrument or another effects pedal to this jack.
The input impedance presented at the INPUT jack is 2.2 M.
AMP JACK
Connect the AMP jack to your amplifier input or the input of another effects
pedal. The output impedance at this jack is 470.
9V Power Jack
Plug the output of the supplied AC Adapter into this jack located at the top
of the FREEZE. The FREEZE’s current requirement is 140mA at 9VDC. The polarity
of the power jack is center-negative. The FREEZE accepts most Boss style AC
Adapters.
MODE DESCRIPTIONS
FAST
When the footswitch is triggered, the FREEZE will immediately sustain the
current input. The sound will be sustained until the footswitch is released,
at which point the effect will immediately disengage.
SLOW
When the footswitch is triggered, the FREEZE will sustain the current input,
fading in the effect. The sound will be sustained until the footswitch is
released, at which point the effect will fade out slowly. The speed of the
fade can be set during slow-speed initialization. See below.
LATCH
When the footswitch is triggered, the FREEZE will immediately sustain your
current sound. The sound will continue to be sustained upon releasing the
footswitch. When the footswitch is triggered again, the FREEZE will
immediately replace the sustained sound with the new current input. A double-
tap on the footswitch will silence the effect.
SLOW-SPEED INITILAZATION
The speed at which the effect fades in/out in SLOW mode can be adjusted by following these steps:
- Unplug the power jack
- Hold down the footswitch
- While holding down the footswitch, plug in the power jack (LED will blink)
- Move the mode switch to the preferred setting based on this table:
Switch Position| Fade-in Speed| Fade-out Speed
---|---|---
Up| 200ms| 400ms
Middle| 200ms| 1.0 sec
Down| 800ms| 3.2 sec - Release the footswitch, the FREEZE is ready for normal operation.
The FREEZE will retain the chosen fade speed through power cycles and will not change until reinitialized.
