Create countless new types of reverb textures that have never been possible before.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe LIGHT Pedal is based on a mechanical spring reverb tank.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIncoming audio signal is converted into mechanical vibrations by an input transducer (a spring exciter). A similar transducer is used at the output stage to convert the spring's vibrations back into audio signal. Even a short impulse can cause extended vibrations – this is how the traditional reverb effect is achieved. Plate reverbs use the same principle to excite large, resonant sheets of metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHowever, due to energy dissipation, by the time vibrations travel along the length of the springs and reach the output transducer, most of the harmonic content of the input signal is lost, and the output is mostly composed of the spring’s own resonant frequencies. This is why all spring reverbs have a particular sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe LIGHT Pedal explores a new way of picking up the spring's vibrations - using multiple sets of infrared optical sensors (acting as photoelectric pickups) placed carefully at different positions along the length of the springs. This method allows it to capture the spring tank's full range of movement and pick up a much wider range of frequencies, harmonics, overtones and textures that are otherwise lost in the mechanical reverberation process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUNIQUE FX \u0026amp; GATING ENGINE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe LIGHT Pedal offers six types of unique reverb effects, which are achieved by modulating the optical sensor system and exciting the spring-tank. Each effect type can be adjusted with the CTRL knob. The GATE knob controls a built-in dynamic envelope that lets you achieve gated or ducking reverb effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBUILT TO BE PLAYED LIVE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe LIGHT Pedal is a true analog mono reverb system. It features an assignable expression pedal input (normally assigned to the FX control knob), as well as an innovative shock sensor designed to eliminate unwanted spring-noise caused by mechanical impacts, stomping, and stage-rattle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDETAILED SOUND-SCULPTING\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe LIGHT Pedal has three separate volume controls that provide detailed control over the pedal’s output signal. These set individual levels for both the traditional spring tank output and the optical reverb system. The DRY knob cuts or boosts the instrument’s DRY signal. The TONE knob controls a powerful tilt EQ section that is applied to the WET signal only.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFX SECTION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe LIGHT Pedal features six unique on-board FX modes grouped into two categories: Optical FX (optics, sweep, trem) and Mechanical FX (reflect, feedback, harmonic). These can be used to create soundscapes, drones and ambient layers, and are particularly effective when used with the footswitch in momentary mode.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInput Type: Tip-sleeve 1\/4” jack\u003cbr\u003eInput impedance: 1MΩ\u003cbr\u003eMaximum input level: +6.8 dBu\u003cbr\u003eOutput type: Tip-sleeve 1\/4” jack\u003cbr\u003eOutput impedance: 100 Ω\u003cbr\u003eMaximum output level: +6.8 dBu\u003cbr\u003ePeak Power Consumption: 4 W\u003cbr\u003eMean Power Consumption: 0.9 W\u003cbr\u003ePower Requirements: 500 mA min 9V DC center negative 2.1 x 5.5 mm plug (not included)\u003cbr\u003eSpring Tank: 3 springs type, 100 mm\u003cbr\u003eProduct Dimensions: WLH 105 x 190 x 40 mm (4.1 x 7.5 x 1.6 in)\u003cbr\u003eProduct Weight: 1060 g (2.3 lbs)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gamechanger Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47531552309426,"sku":"ACGAMLIGHTPEDALUS","price":349.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0084\/0659\/7712\/files\/cxsmrwwfdoqur4bk6juh.jpg?v=1779962583","url":"https:\/\/www.citymusicannex.com\/products\/used-gamechanger-audio-light-pedal-optical-spring-reverb-guitar-effects-pedal","provider":"City Music Annex","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
