The Polypus Supreme is an expanded version of the Polypus, it is a tremolo pedal with an all analog audio signal path where the volume is modulated by an LFO with 6 different waveshapes and the rate of the lfo or tap ratios are synced to a 5 step sequencer, providing up to 5 presets rate/tap ratios.
The sequencer lenght can be assigned to be 3, 4 or 5 steps long, and has 3 modes of operation:
*Triggered mode the sequence will advance to the next step when you press, the middle footswitch.
*Scroll Mode with Pause the sequencer will be advancing to the next step and when you press the middle footswitch it will pause the sequence in the step you are in (while you have press the footswitch as soon as you release the footswitch it will start advancing).
*Pause with Scroll the sequencer will stay on the current step and as soon you press the middle footswitch it will start scrolling until you release the footswitch.
It also has 0-5v CV outputs of the LFO and the Sequencer so you can sync other CV compatible devices. Plus a CV sync input jack, it will accept a 0-5v clock signal to sync the rate of the lfo (in tap mode) and sequencer rate.
Reset toggle: Set if the sequencer is reset to step 1 when going to bypass or not.
Tap/Rate toggle: In the up position, the steps set the rate of the lfo, down the steps set the tap ratios.
Scroll Toggle: Set Pause & Scroll Mode or Scroll & Pause Mode.
Sequencer Length Toggle: Set if the sequencer is 3, 4 or 5 steps long.
Trigger Toggle: Set if the sequencer is Triggered or Scroll Mode.
