Description
Habit is a musical sketchpad. It stores everything you play for later, so you can revisit and reuse sounds from the past: Build compositions right inside the pedal, gather up loops, design custom echo patterns.
Out of the box, it's good, quick fun and there isn't much you need to know, but it's designed to be a pedal you can grow with over time, loaded with surprises and hidden talents. As you play, everything you do is stored in the background for later use. At any time, you can scan back into this memory and play echoes of the past. You can gather up loops, or create rhythmic pre-delays, or play two moments at once. OR, you can set Habit to auto-scan and periodically sprinkle in old notes.
At its simplest, Habit is an experimental delay that can be up to a minute long. At its extreme, it's a self-contained song made up of chance encounters.
Level (Ramp)
How loud would you like your echoes? (To mix fully wet, engage the DRY KILL dip switch). If ramping is engaged, the function of this knob will control the speed of the movement.
Repeats
Sets the number of echoes. At maximum you will get stable, infinite build-up, like looping.
Size
You can think of SIZE like the time knob on a typical delay. It sets the space between echoes. SIZE offers clean adjustment, meaning there is no pitch warping as you move the knob - the echo simply gets shorter or longer. It ranges from 50ms, up to 60 seconds. SIZE can also be set by tapping the left footswitch.
Modify
Introduces various effects for sculpting your echoes. The [1 2 3] and [A OFF B] toggles select which modifier is active or turns the modifiers off.
Spread
Introduces a secondary echo that plays part of Habit's memory. At shorter settings, this can be used to design unique multi-tap delays. At longer settings, it gives you the ability to be in two places at once. The position of the knob sets the distance between the primary and secondary echo. In the left-most position, SPREAD is off.
Scan
This is how you interact with Habit's memory.
