Quiet Theory Prelude - gruidl - 05-17-2026
I've got #451...I remember this because I think of Fahrenheit 451 and how this pedal is hot. yeah...
Bryan...I was trying to understand burst mode...what it is, and how I trigger it. I was thinking it would allow me to sort of one-shot/hit of delay & reverb as a momentary hit, which I'd love to do with my bass. Can you help me out with this?
I used it on this track, and love how it picked up on my dynamics: https://open.spotify.com/track/3TL4BAnIu43b5F02gRVXkr?si=d5c4fcf71e084403

Completely insane that I missed this. 😂 I must have hit "Mark All Read" on this account (instead of QT) by accident.
To turn bust mode on: Once the pedal is powered, tap a footswitch on/off four times, and then on the 5th tap hold the switch down. Hold for about 3 seconds. If it worked, the LED will flash a couple times. Once it switches to burst mode, that footswitch has become momentary. To go back to normal, you repeat the process. It can be a little finicky at first to get the timing right.
Jamming that track now. It's awesome. Going to listen to more.

Awesome...thank you! Excited to try this. As you heard in that track (and if you listened to anything else), bass is really driving the songs, and guitars are all washed out bliss. So adding that momentary burst will be a nice flourish!.
