Insert Mode Program. Configured for Series Routing (default) or optional Parallel Routing. Program MIX 50%. Aggravate into Chorus. Programmed for stereo use.

1.8.6 update required for the two new algorithms: Aggravate & Sticky Tape.

Clean signal doubled alongside crumbling, but not-too-intrusive distortion, with slow filter, chorusing & volume modulations. Foot control modulates the modulators, or flips the envelope into throaty vibrato territory. Kill switch-type effects when fast sweeping EXP1.

EXP1 sweeps Aggravate Mids, Bias, Filter Env, Pump Depth & Rate with Chorus Depth, Speed & Manual. EXP2 (optional) sweeps Chorus Depth Mod & Speed Mod.

All three HotKnobs are pre-programmed for making fine adjustments to several of the effects. Customize the sound, using these variations:

* [P] HotKnob (+/-) – adjust Tone in Aggravate with Mod Speed in Chorus [default = 25]
* [A] HotKnob (+/-) – adjust Aggravate Fuzz & Release [default = 5].
* [B] HotKnob (+/-) – adjust Chorus Shape & Mod Source [default = 10].

* MIDI CC#8 Aggravate Mix
* MIDI CC#40 Chorus Intensity
* MIDI CC#74 Resonance
* MIDI CC#79 Aggravate Thick
* MIDI CC#80 Aggravate Env Shape
* MIDI CC#81 Aggravate Octave

Retrigger LFOs in both effects (simultaneously to sync). Most evident with Chorus Retrigger and a latched SLOW BRAKE/SPEED. HS1 enables PUMP Control in Aggravate (need to catch the distortion just right) and swaps the Octave and Env Shapes.
