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 CHORUS
The AUTO CHORUS encapsulates three rich and warm-sounding types of modulation effects: chorus, ensemble and flanger.
CHORUS algorithm is a classic simple chorus effect that mixes the dry sound with a delayed and pitch-shifted signal. For a pure vibrato effect, set the LEVEL KNOB MODE to MIX, set the LEVEL knob completely clockwise, and set the FEEDBACK knob completely counter-clockwise.
ENSEMBLE algorithm is a more lush version of the chorus. This algorithm mixes the dry signal with three slightly offset and pitch-shifted signals. This ensures that in the higher DEPTH setting, the internal modulation rate remains less audible than in the CHORUS algorithm.
FLANGE algorithm shortens the delay of the chorus effect to achieve the typical jet-engine-like effect.
CONTROLS
RATE adjusts the modulation range from 0 Hz to 819.16 Hz. When turned completely counter-clockwise, the pedal stops modulating the delay line and the effect is stuck on a static delay time controlled by the DEPTH knob. When the RATE is set to 0, the DEPTH knob allows you to dial in various comb-filtering sounds.
DEPTH control. The minimum counterclockwise setting is no modulation depth, which means that the wet signal has a constant short delay (since CHORUS and FLANGER are delay-based effects). This means that even if the modulation depth is zero, you can still use the FEEDBACK control to shape the wet sound.
FEEDBACK level adjustment. High settings introduce a metallic resonant character that is dependent on the selected algorithm. The maximum setting pushes the effect into an infinite feedback loop.
TRACK TEMPO AND MODULATION SHAPE
The AUTO CHORUS features an innovative approach to the tap tempo function: TRACK TEMPO. Push and hold both footswitches at the same time. The pedal uses its dynamic tracking capabilities to determine the tempo of strumming and sets the RATE parameter value accordingly.
The MODULATION SHAPE switch offers three distinct modulation shapes: SAW, SINE, and RAMP.
PATCHING IDEAS
Create a delayed vibrato
Shape resonant chorus attacks
Create an accelerating jet engine effect
Add chorus only to notes high on the fretboard
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!
