Gamechanger Plus Sustain Effect Pedal

Description

GAMECHANGER PLUS SUSTAIN EFFECT PEDAL

Sustain pedal for all melodic instruments

The PLUS Pedal is much more than just a pedal: it is a vast extension of the instrument, bridging the gap between harmony and solos, and allowing all musicians to explore entirely new territories.

In addition to being a powerful compositional and arrangement tool, the PLUS Pedal can also be used to create truly interesting and unique sound effects that would otherwise be impossible to achieve in real-time.

Whether you are a composer, a soloist, a sound designer or part of a band - the ability to instantly transform any melodic sound produced by your instrument into a continuous sound layer will completely change your approach to music.

The unique audio algorithm developed by GAMECHANGER AUDIO allows to capture and sample small bits of the instrument's signal in real time, and wrap them in a continuous, warm and responsive tone.

Unlike existing granular synthesizers and synth-pad triggers, the PLUS Pedal actually performs a constant Hi-Res recording of the instrument and, once activated, the RealTime sampling algorithm instantly creates a circular micro-loop of the most recent audio signal produced, as if it were an intelligent looper that only captures the last segment of the chosen note or chord, and uses it to create a continuous sound.

The resulting sustain layers can be practically indistinguishable from your instrument's original tone, and you can further adjust and refine the PLUS pedal to achieve the exact kind of sustain you've envisioned.

(WET FOOTSWITCH NOT INCLUDED – SOLD SEPARATELY)

• Instantly transforms any melodic sound produced by the instrument into a continuous sound layer, by constantly recording the input signal, and continuously looping the last fragment of played music, chord or single note

• Two usage modes Single Layer / Group: allows to use a single layer of continuous looped sound, or to sum up to 5 layers of sound

• Blend: Controls the volume of the WET signal produced by the PLUS Pedal

• Sustain: In SINGLE mode – the SUSTAIN knob allows to control the behavior of the hold function (while the pedal is pressed). If set to minimum, it will emulate the natural decay properties of a ringing string – gradual reduction of high frequencies. While if set to infinity it will keep the sustained note / chord completely static for as long as the pedal is pressed, without applying any frequency filter. In GROUP mode – the SUSTAIN knob allows to reduce the number of layers allowed simultaneously – you can choose from 1 to 5 layers (indicated by the LED flashing)

• Rise: Adjusts the fade-in speed of each sound layer generated by the PLUS pedal

• Tail: Allows to adjust the signal decay after releasing the foot from the pedal

• Split/Mix switch to activate the Wet only function

• Clean Out output for dry sound or WET footswitch (not included)

• 3-stage brightness LED: Off, 50%, 100%, corresponding to the volume of the playing Loop

• Send/Return to modify the sound layer/s with an external effect

• Short Tap function: acts as a Kill Switch for the loop if fully pressed, as an Undo of the last recorded layer if half pressed

• Sampling frequency: 26kHz

• Signal conversion: 16 bit

• Analog/Digital frequency response: 20Hz to 22kHz/13kHz

• Power supply: 9V DC, 200mA (power supply not included)
