The Kraken is a modified version of the Mutron Micro V™ envelope filter. It expands on the original controls by adding Attack and Decay options for the envelope. The Range control adjusts the intensity of the envelope dynamics, with higher settings increasing sensitivity and driving the filter’s intensity. The Attack control allows for fine adjustments to the attack of the envelope and interacts with the Range pot. The Decay control determines the length of time it takes for the envelope to sweep the filter, with higher settings resulting in longer decay times. The LO/HI switch controls the range of the filter that is swept, with Hi being thin and resonant, and Lo being full and dark. The T1 trimmer adjusts the input impedance of the effect, with CCW being the stock setting. Turning T1 CW increases the input impedance of Q1, resulting in a more aggressive pick attack. The recommended setting for the T1 trimmer is about halfway up. The Kraken has an updated layout for 2020, allowing for different enclosure builds.
