3. Controls and Operation
The Pico Triboro Bridge features intuitive controls for shaping your desired drive tone. Understanding each knob and button is key to unlocking its full potential.
Perilles de control:
- VOL (volum): Controls the overall output level of the pedal. Adjust this to balance the effect's volume with your bypassed signal or other effects.
- GUANY: Controls the intensity of the drive, distortion, or fuzz effect. Higher settings result in more saturation and sustain.
- BASS / GATE:
- In Overdrive and Distortion modes, this knob functions as a BASS control, allowing you to boost or cut low frequencies.
- In Fuzz mode, this knob functions as a PORTA control, adjusting the noise gate threshold to eliminate unwanted noise and feedback.
- TREBLE / TONE:
- In Overdrive and Distortion modes, this knob functions as a AGUTS control, allowing you to boost or cut high frequencies.
- In Fuzz mode, this knob functions as a TO control, specifically a Low Pass Filter, for extreme tonal variations and shaping the fuzz character.
TYPE Button:
The small button labeled "TYPE" at the top of the pedal is used to select between the three primary drive modes and to engage the Input Contour Mode.
- Selecció del mode: Pressing the TYPE button cycles through the Overdrive (green LED), Distortion (orange LED), and Fuzz (red LED) modes.
- Input Contour Mode: Press and hold the TYPE button to enable or disable the Input Contouring EQ. When active, this mode applies a specific EQ to the input signal for a tighter, more modern character across all drive modes.

4. Drive Modes Explained
The Pico Triboro Bridge offers three distinct drive modes, each with its unique sonic characteristics:
- Overdrive Mode (Green LED): This mode provides a gain spectrum ranging from low to mid-level saturation with an open voicing. It is ideal for use as a subtle "always-on" drive, adding warmth and grit, or as a solo boost to push your ampmés viu.
- Distortion Mode (Orange LED): Engaging this mode provides additional gain-staging, delivering tones from crunchy rhythms to fully saturated leads. It offers a more aggressive and compressed sound compared to the Overdrive mode.
- Fuzz Mode (Red LED): This mode transforms the pedal into a high-gain fuzz effect with over-the-top saturation. The BASS knob becomes a GATE control, and the TREBLE knob becomes a Low Pass Filter, allowing for unique and extreme tonal variations specific to fuzz.
