The unit uses a pretty cool design that I've not seen before, especially in a unit of this size. It utilizes a DSP chip dedicated per effect (in this one, each effect has a dedicated Spin FV-1 controlled by a 24LC32A EEPROM). This maximizes the DSP power per effect, which gives the best sonic results. Despite all the digital sorcery going on, your dry signal remains 100% analog and tonally transparent. Each effect is mixed back with the dry signal using an analog mixer, with noon being a 50/50 mix.

Chorus module and controls
I was shooting for kind of an ‘80s rackmount chorus unit vibe. You'll notice some nice voicing in the modulation that will help you add texture without cheesiness.

RATE adjusts how quickly the chorus signal is modulated.

DEPTH adjusts how dramatically the modulated signal swings.

MIX adjusts how much chorus signal there is relative to your dry signal.

You’ll find a lot of variety by counter-parting the Depth and Mix controls for all sorts of tuneage. I’m very proud of how this chorus voicing turned out!

Delay module and controls
Blood Ritual’s delay tone was inspired by the TC Electronic 2290 unit. Clear, pristine but warm, and just a hint of modulation.

TIME adjusts the delay length (from slapback to way longer than you need).

FEEDBACK adjusts the number of repeats.

MIX adjusts how loud the Delay line is compared to the dry signal. Note that as you increase the Mix beyond noon, the delay signal is actually LOUDER than the dry bypassed signal. I doubt you'll ever use it this way, but just know it is part of the mix design. My idea was that if you went for a super wet sound with very little dry signal, having the delay slightly louder than the reverb sounded better and less messy.

BOOST
Also, the hidden bonus is the clean boost which is adjusted on the control mounted on the left side of the pedal. Fully counterclockwise is unity gain. As you turn the control clockwise, you'll be greeted with a healthy amount of boost.
