The Peradam is an overdrive module with a unique architecture: rather than just overdriving the signal into a square wave, it makes a copy of the source audio and then manipulates it to modulate the original signal.
If you really want to understand how it works, the architecture diagram in the manual is probably your best bet. tl;dr: it's complicated.
But you don't have to understand how it works to move the knobs and sliders and get interesting results. That's basically what this video is: me moving around knobs and sliders to get a basic feel for what kind of sounds the module makes.
Source audio: SE Oscillation. Sequence: Stochastic IG. Envelope: Zadar.
00:00 Intro

03:20 Sequence, drive off
07:45 Drive on
13:28 Square wave, sub
