Gamechanger Audio PLUS Pedal – Piano-Style Sustain for Any Instrument

Gamechanger Audio PLUS Pedal – Piano-Style Sustain for Any Instrument

The PLUS Pedal from Gamechanger Audio isn’t your average effects pedal. It’s a real-time audio looper and sustain engine that brings the nuanced functionality of a piano’s damper pedal into the world of electric guitars, synths, and beyond. Unlike reverb or delay, the PLUS Pedal doesn’t just create ambience—it freezes and sustains actual audio from your playing, allowing you to build harmonic beds, drones, and pedal tones with expressive control.

Key Features

• Real-Time Audio Sampling: Captures the tail end of your note or chord and sustains it seamlessly, creating a pad-like texture from your actual tone—no synthesis or pitch shifting.

• Piano-Style Foot Pedal: The mechanical build closely mimics a piano damper pedal, offering precise control over the length and blend of your sustains. Press lightly for short sustains or fully depress for long, swelling pads.

• Multiple Modes:

  • Single Mode: Only the latest note is sustained.

  • Group Mode: Layers multiple notes or chords into a single evolving drone.

  • Fade-In: Creates gentle ambient swells without the need for volume pedal or automation.

• Expression + FX Loop: Dedicated expression pedal input and a built-in effects loop, which lets you process only the sustained signal separately—ideal for adding reverb, delay, or modulation only to the “frozen” part.

• Works with Any Signal Source: Guitar, bass, vocals, synths, even strings—anything can be captured and sustained with full fidelity.

Pros

• Truly unique sound design tool—lets you sustain and stack textures from your own signal in real time.

• Mechanical pedal gives it a very natural and intuitive playing feel.

• FX loop is a smart addition for keeping dry and sustained signals separate.

• Particularly powerful for ambient, cinematic, looping, or solo performance setups.

• No tone loss or pitch artifacts—it preserves your original signal, unlike many freeze pedals that use pitch-shifting or granular techniques.
