Gamechanger Audio Auto Delay

The AUTO Series pedals are a fusion of classic audio effects and groundbreaking parameter automation.
Each AUTO Series pedal turns your performance into sound design. Your touch, dynamics, and note choices automate the effects parameters and shape tones in real time. The AUTO Series reimagines what a pedal can be.
AUTOMATION BASICS
Each pedal produces two automation signals based on specific elements of your performance:
The DYNAMICS Engine monitors your instrument’s volume, your picking intensity, and overall playing dynamics.
The PITCH Engine precisely tracks your note choices and overall instrument timbre.
With a simple patch-bay interface you can route these automation sources to any of the four primary effect knobs.
In addition, each pedal has four corresponding smaller knobs, also called attenuators – they determine the amount and direction of all parameter automation signals.
The AUTO footswitch engages the automation section, allowing you to easily switch from a standard effect mode to a pre-routed automation setting.
To shape the AUTOMATION, you can calibrate both DYNAMICS and PITCH tracking engines – indicated by the led light strips in the patchbay. Use DYNAMICS and PITCH knobs with dedicated mode switches to customize the automation. Thereby you tailor the response curves to suit your playing style and the desired automation effect.
The result – an unlimited breadth of touch-responsive effects – orchestrated in real time by the nuances of your playing.
From subtle, tasteful settings, all the way up to wild experimentation – the AUTO Series is an endless platform for discovery.
AUTO DELAY
The AUTO DELAY offers you three unique and radiant-sounding algorithms, delivering the best of classical analog and digital delay landscapes.
TAPE algorithm mimics the tone control section, tape saturation, and compression of a vintage tape echo. We have deliberately not emulated the typical wow and flutter effects associated with tape delays, as these sounds can be achieved by automating the TIME parameter in numerous ways.
ANALOG algorithm replicates the tonal response of a vintage high-quality studio bucket-brigade delay. Automating the TIME parameter while the REPEATS level is set high produces classic and warm pitch-shifted delay tails.
DIGITAL algorithm is intended to be used when the delay signal needs to be precisely the same as the input signal without any signal coloring. Clear and spectrally precise repeats with the TONE knob set in the center position with the ability to automate the tone to become darker or brighter.
CONTROLS
REPEAT determines the number of repeats. The lowest setting produces zero repeats. When turned completely clockwise, the delay goes into an infinite feedback loop.
TONE controls the coloration of all currently sounding delay tails. The character of the TONE circuit is dependent on the selected algorithm.
TIME adjusts the delay time from 40 milliseconds to 2 seconds.
TRACK TEMPO AND PANNING
The AUTO Delay features an innovative approach to the tap tempo function: TRACK TEMPO. When you push and hold both footswitches at the same time, the AUTO Delay uses its dynamic tracking capabilities to determine the tempo of your strumming and sets the TIME parameter value accordingly.
The pedal also features three stereo panning modes: OFF; 50%, or 100% (ping-pong).
PATCHING IDEAS
Create a ducking delay
Delay send on high notes only
Play notes with self-oscillating feedback
Create squished feedback
Warranty & Returns
All New products are covered by the manufacturers new warranty. Please check their website for the length of warranty and warranty conditions. If an item you receive is faulty get in touch with us ASAP. Second Hand products come with a 4 week warranty from us. If there is an issue let us know ASAP! This covers normal use and does not cover accidental damage, misuse, wrong power plugged into it, modding, water damage or any other damage caused by mistreatment. Just treat it nice and all will be good!
Shipping
We send A LOT of packages every week so don't worry about the shipping side of things!
We've never lost a thing and your awesome new gear will be packed up really well to avoid any damage in transit.
If your order comes in before 2pm we will ship it same day. Most of the time we pack things up all the way to 4pm so just call if you need it to leave same day after 2pm.
We ship mainly with Australia Post but may use a courier depending on location and size of the package.
Free Post ships with Australia Post standard and expected shipping times are between 4-6 business days depending on location. It will be longer to outside of metro and rural areas.
Express Post will usually be with you next business day in metro areas of QLD, NSW, SA, VIC and TAS. WA will take 2 days to metro and extra days after that to out side metro and rural areas.
Everything we ship has a tracking number with the exception of some power cables and smaller envelope packages. You will be emailed tracking once your order has been shipped!
