Gamechanger Audio BIGSBY Vibrato Pedal

The BIGSBY Pedal is a revolutionary polyphonic pitchshifter pedal that is able to reproduce the string bending andvibrato effects produced by the BIGSBY Tremolo arm and other traditional tremolo systems.Powered by the formidable SHARC® Audio Processor, the BIGSBY Pedal runs a hybrid algorithm specificallydevelopedby Gamechanger Audio to achieve smooth polyphonic realpainstakingly tweaked to preserve the natural timbre and sound of electric and acoustic string instruments, includingbaritone and bass guitThe unique springand creative ways. The BIGSBY pedal is always “on”allowing you to seamlessly incorporate pitchThis oAnother key component of the BIGSBY Pedal’s sound is the DETUNE parameter, anotthat is designed to emulate the imperfections and dissonant properties of traditional mechanical stringhardware. As a result, the vibrato effects produced by the BIGSBY Pedal are almost indistinguishable from thoseof aconventional tremolo arm.The BIGSBY Pedal combines the tremolo arm pitchtake this pedal much further than simple pitch bend.

FEATURES:

• Polyphonic pitch shifting and a reproduction of the BIGSBY tremolo arm string-bending and vibrato effects.
• A spring-loaded rocking foot-pedal for upwards and downwards pitch-bending movements.
• High-quality buffered bypass and seamless transitions into and out of bypass.
• Multi-function LED-lit knobs. LED color and intensity are indicators of the selected parameters and values.
• AUTO mode, with an LFO controlling the pitch-bend rate and the foot-pedal controlling pitch bend depth.
• Up to 12 semitone pitch-shifts in both directions. The pitch-bend range can beset separately for both directions.
• Foot-pedal and pitch-shift direction invert switch.
• BLEND control for mixing in the DRY signal to achieve harmonizer or chorus sounds.
• DETUNE control for emulating the tuning instability of hardware tremolo systems.
• Full MIDI PC and CC control over all parameters and extended functionality. A 3.5 mm TRS to 5 pin DIN MIDI adapter is included.
• 10 user preset slots accessible via MIDI PC.
• Expression output for controlling other gear with the spring-loaded dual-direction foot-pedal, with adjustable expression depth and center position offset controls.
• Latching mode is accessible via an external footswitch. The BIGSBY Pedal is compatible with both momentary-and toggle-type footswitches with a TS ¼ inch jack.
• A “KNOB LOCK” option to prevent accidental parameter adjustment during performances.
• Powered by a standard 9V DC center negative power supply with at least 500 mA. Power supply is not included.
