2. Atụmatụ igodo
- Adjustable Carrier Signal: Provides precise control over the ring modulation effect.
- Ezi Bypass: Ensures your guitar's tone remains pristine when the pedal is disengaged.
- Lighter Aluminum Chassis: Durable and pedalboard-friendly design.
- Aggressive Distortion Circuit: Integrated distortion for signal mangling.
- Njikwa nọọrọ onwe ya: Dedicated knobs for Gain, Distortion, Output, Frequency, and Ring.
- Modern 9V DC Power Supply Input: Compatible with standard pedalboard power.
3. Njikwa na Ọrụ
The DOD Gonkulator features five control knobs and a footswitch for comprehensive sound shaping.

- Nweta: Adjusts the input gain for the distortion circuit.
- DIST (Distortion): Controls the amount of distortion applied to the signal.
- Mmepụta: Sets the overall output volume of the pedal.
- FREQ (Ugboro): Adjusts the carrier signal frequency for the ring modulation effect. This knob is crucial for tuning the robotic sounds.
- mgbanaka: Controls the blend of the dry signal with the ring modulated signal. Turn clockwise for more ring modulation.
- Ihe mgbakwasị ụkwụ: Toggles the effect on/off. Features true bypass.
4. Ntọala na Njikọ
Follow these steps to connect your DOD Gonkulator pedal:
- Ịnye ọkụ: Connect a standard 9V DC power adapter (center negative) to the PSU jack on the pedal. The pedal also includes a 9V battery.
- Ntinye: Connect your guitar to the "IN" jack on the right side of the pedal using a standard 1/4-inch instrument cable.

5. Ịrụ ọrụ Pedal
The DOD Gonkulator combines ring modulation and distortion effects. Experiment with the controls to find your desired sound.
- Ring Modulation:
- Malite na Mgbanaka knob at a low setting.
- Hazie nke FREQ knob to sweep through different carrier frequencies, creating various robotic and metallic tones.
- Dịkwuo Mgbanaka knob to blend more of the modulated signal.
- Mgbagha:
- Jiri ihe URU knob to control the input level into the distortion circuit.
- Hazie nke DIST knob to set the amount of overdrive/distortion.
- The distortion circuit can be used independently or in conjunction with the ring modulator for unique textures.
- Njikwa olu: Jiri ihe Mpụta knob to match the pedal's volume to your bypassed signal or to provide a boost.
