WL-33 - "SANDEVISTAN"
REFERENCE DOCUMENTATION




SUMMARY

Sandevistan is a two-channel piezo contact microphone instrument. It features a square of 50grit sandpaper adhered to the front panel for greater sonic exploration, an input for external contact mics and other audio sources, and LED based active distortion.


SPECIFICATIONS

  • 20HP wide
  • Skiff-friendly
  • 50ma~ at +12v, 50ma~ at -12
  • 1kOhm input / 100kOhm output impedence



CONTROLS

(identical for each channel)



(approx piezo locations shown)


  • PIEZO GAIN

    Gain of the preamplifier for each piezo disk. Able to distort at highest settings.


  • DIODE AMT.

    Amount of diode distortion applied to the preamp output. Very disgusting sounding.


  • OUT 1/2

    Main output.


  • EXT. INPUT

    Input for external signals - designed for contact mics but will accept any audio signal. Interrupts the main piezo signal with a cable plugged in.




TIPS / TRICKS

  • As demonstrated, don't be afraid to abuse the module.

  • The two contact mics are located to the left and right of the panel's center - this allows for some very weird ""stereo"" effects.

  • The module can be used as a distortion effect by patching essentially whatever you want into the "ext input" jack. Note that this is intended for audio only.
