Sustain and Sostenuto Pedal for Guitar and Other Melodic Instruments with Real-time Sampling and Smart Looping, 2 Outputs, and FX Loop
A Revolutionary Sustain Pedal for Your Axe
The Gamechanger Audio Plus Pedal is not your average stompbox looper — it's an extension of your instrument that bridges the gap between your rhythm and lead playing, making it easy for guitarists and other musicians to explore new sonic frontiers. The Plus Pedal utilizes Gamechanger's proprietary audio algorithm that lets you capture and sample small segments of your instrument’s signal in real time and loop them into a seamless sustained sound. Unlike granular synthesizers and synth-pad triggers, Plus Pedal actually plays a constant high-resolution recording of your instrument and, once engaged, the real-time sampling algorithm instantly creates a micro loop out of the most recent audio signal.
Smart looping magic
You can think of the Plus Pedal as a "smart looper" that only catches the last segment of a note or chord you select by pressing down on the piano-style pedal, and uses that to create a warm and responsive continuous sound. The layers of sustain created by the Plus Pedal sound nearly identical to the original tone of your instrument, and you can further tweak the Plus Pedal to achieve the specific type of sustain you hear in your head. In use, the Plus pedal delivers results that are quite different (and much more varied) from those produced by typical looper and "freeze" pedals. Similar to the sostenuto pedal on a piano, the Plus Pedal lets you easily sustain selected notes, while others remain unaffected.
A permanent place in your rig
We can see the Plus Pedal becoming a staple in every guitarist’s rig — much like the wah. Whether you’re a soloist or you play in a trio, it's ideal for creating pads to fill out a sparse arrangement while you're playing single-note lines. The ability to place effects exclusively on the sustain also opens up worlds of tonal potential. For film scoring, guitarists at Sweetwater have found that it allows them to use their native instrument to create atmospheric, synth-like pads and moody, ambient drones and textures without having to reach for their keyboard controller. But while guitarists are naturally drawn to the pianistic sustain abilities of the Plus Pedal, it's actually a game changer for virtually any instrument and all music genres.
A valuable creative tool
Besides being a must-have arrangement and compositional tool, the Plus Pedal also excels at creating beautiful and unique textures and sound effects that would otherwise be impossible to produce in real time. Onstage or in the studio, being able to instantly transform any sound produced by your instrument into a layer of continuous sound will open up creative portals, forever changing the way you approach making music. The Plus Pedal is also an amazingly effective tool for ear training and practicing melodies, scales, and modes over specific chords or tonal counterpoints. Beneath its attractive visuals, the Plus Pedal boasts a tour-tough housing and robust build quality for decades of professional use.
