Analog Compander Effect
Tempus Magi by Ivy Pedals is an analog compander (compressor/expander) effect, capable of compression or expansion. Designed around vintage ICs, this unique dynamics effect can be a quick compressor (Attack) or a smooth fade-in effect (Evade) with low noise.
Tempus Magi Controls:
ATTACK = Compressor
EVADE = Expander (fade-in)
FAST/SLOW = Time Constant for dynamics; slow/fast fade in (EVADE), or, slow/fast compressor response
Volume Knob - allows for volume compensation for either mode.
Tempus Magi v2 is rated from 9v to 18v DC, Center-Negative- standard pedal power supplies. This is a buffered-bypass pedal.
Each Tempus Magi receives extra special care due to the semi-rare ICs, and has a vintage brown enclosure with black I/O hardware.
Designed and hand-built by Ivy Pedals in Oregon
(Tempus Magi 1, in black and green, is the same effect, but with the original faceplate and a different voltage regulator, which is why 12v is recommended for that specific version)
