Building on the success of Prometheus, Proteus embraces a very different philosophy.
In short, Proteus is what many people wished Prometheus had been- simpler and much easier to use on the fly.
The envelope filter mode is much more "funk" than "shoegaze."
The step filtering is pure random sample hold, no ultra-fine tuning required - just tap in a beat, and Proteus does all the thinking for you.
Where Prometheus is a mad science project run amok, Proteus is exactly the opposite. Controls are simple, obvious, and do exactly what you expect, every time.
The low-pass filter does not cut out frequencies below the cutoff point, so the low end always stays intact. It can be bright at some settings, but never shrill.Bypass Switch: Turns the effect off or on.
- Tap/Mode Switch: Tapping the switch in time starts the sample/hold filter. Holding the switch down for one second switches back to envelope filter mode.
- Frequency: Filter resting point
- Depth: Filter modulation range for both envelope follower and sample hold mode.
- 1-2-4: Step multiplier. One, two or four steps per beat (sample hold mode only)
- Proteus is powered externally only with a standard 9V negative center 2.1mm barrel adapter. A 12 volt power supply can be used for increased headroom.
- Proteus is hand made in Newberg, Oregon.
- Die-cast metal enclosure for durability
- 3PDT switches for true-bypass switching
NOTE: Proteus will not run off a battery. Externally powered only. 9VDC power supply not included.
