Gamechanger Audio AUTO CHORUS Pitch and Dynamics Responsive Chorus Effects Pedal Black

The Gamechanger Audio AUTO Series, which includes this AUTO CHORUS Pitch and Dynamics Responsive Chorus effects pedal fuses classic pedal design with groundbreaking parameter automation. It’s more than just an evolution in audio processing—it's a complete reimagining of what a pedal can be.

With every AUTO Series pedal, your performance becomes an integral part of the sound effect. Your touch, playing dynamics, and note choices shape the tones and textures, responding to your performance and evolving in real time. Hence, the sound design is intricately woven into your musical expression, guiding you on a journey of continuous discovery and wonder.

Changes in effects are often achieved using presets, expression pedals and MIDI control. While each method has its own advantages, they can only take you so far. However, the AUTO Series provides a different approach to orchestrating effects, emphasizing playing your instrument.

Each pedal has two automation sources that you control with your performance. The DYNAMICS follows the volume nuances of your playing. It captures the character of your picking style as well as your instrument's loudness and decay. The PITCH tracker, on the other hand, detects note choices, bends and vibratos. You wield the power to route these automations to any of the four effect knobs, setting the parameters in motion.

Customize the adjustments with the DYNAMICS and PITCH knobs and dedicated mode switches. Adjust the DYNAMICS decay time, introduce glide to PITCH tracking, and tailor the response curves to match your playing style and the desired effect.

Each of the primary effect knobs is paired with a corresponding smaller adjustment knob, also known as an attenuverter. This allows you to precisely dial in the variation amount and direction for each effect knob independently. Imagine the dynamic possibilities – a loud strum on a guitar can turn one knob clockwise significantly, while only slightly nudging another knob in the opposite direction. Explore the subtleties, from gentle parameter shifts to sweeping, full-parameter transformations.

You can play a note to set it as the center pitch by holding both footswitches. For instance, choosing A3 as the center pitch means that the PITCH automation will activate only when surpassing A3. DYNAMICS features an adjustable volume threshold—automation occurs only with notes louder than the set threshold. You can personalize your effects experience with ease and precision.

Ducking delay: Create your ducking delay by controlling the WET/DRY MIX with DYNAMICS.

Delay send on high notes only: Add delay tails to notes above a certain note by routing the PITCH to INPUT LEVEL and setting the desired center pitch. As you move down the neck, the higher notes will ring out, but the lower notes will not be sent through the delay.

Play notes with self-oscillating feedback: Set the FEEDBACK into self-oscillation and route the PITCH to DELAY TIME. Make the delay follow your notes.

Squished feedback: Set the FEEDBACK so that it slowly goes into self-oscillation, and route the DYNAMICS to the FEEDBACK knob. Inverse the modulation with the AUTOMATION AMOUNT KNOB. Playing softly will allow the delay to feedback, whereas loud notes will momentarily decrease the effect.
