Gamechanger Audio Light Pedal

Gamechanger Audio Light Pedal Product Details

Description

The LIGHT pedal is the world's first analog optical spring reverb system that uses optical infrared sensors. This system is used to capture the full tonal and harmonic range of the spring reverb pan. The LIGHT pedal combines the best features of a classic spring reverb with an innovative optical sensor system and a powerful effects section. This combination opens up countless novel reverb textures and never-before-heard sounds.

The LIGHT pedal uses extremely sensitive optical sensors aimed at different points on the spring. The optical sensors detect very subtle movements on the surface of the spring as sound waves pass through it. This method allows a much wider range of frequencies, overtones and textures to be picked up that would otherwise be lost in the mechanical reverberation process. The optical sensors also open doors to effects that are new to spring reverb, such as tremolo, modulation, feedback, and added harmonics. The result is a wide variety of reverb sounds, ranging from classic to experimental to pure magic.

The LIGHT pedal's user interface pushes the boundaries of spring reverb even further. The advanced signal mix section allows for a very precise balance between the dry, classic reverb sound and the new, optical reverb signals. The ability to stack different effects and control them with playing dynamics or an expression pedal makes this pedal an advanced tool for sonic exploration.

Features:

• Sounds ranging from classic spring tank sounds to colorful optical spring reverb sounds with modulation and added harmonics.
• Separate level controls for the dry signal, spring and optical reverb. The dry signal can be attenuated and boosted
• 6 unique effects: Optic (frequency and texture calibration), Sweep (modulation), Tremolo, Reflect (delay), Feedback and Harmonic (additional harmonics and octave tracking).
• Multiple effect stacking options
• Drive knob adjusts the signal level sent to the reverb tank, affecting the behavior of the reverb tank
• Tone control allows you to adjust the sound from rumbling bass to piercing treble
• simple one-button envelope control creates either gated or ducking reverb
• Effect parameters can be linked to the playing dynamics
• switchable reverb flags in bypass mode
• Switchable Latching or Momentary modes for expressive playing
• Assignable expression pedal input
• Colored LEDs inside the reverb tank provide helpful visual feedback to keep track of the reverb's output and input signal levels, as well as several effect parameters, such as modulation rate
• High-quality buffered bypass
