WHAT IS THE MOTOR PEDAL?

The MOTOR Pedal is a fully playable electro-mechanical synth voice THAT TRACKS THE pitch of your playing in real time.

YOU CAN PLAY IT AS A melodic DOUBLER OR HARMONIZERuse IT AS A POWERFUL and versatile DRONE GENERATOR distort & process your instrument with x-mod & vocoder engines.

This isn’t an emulation. This isn’t analog modeling.
This is the raw sound of a brushed DC motor, pushed to the edge and tamed with precision control.

HOW IT WORKS

THE MOTOR PEDAL USES A REAL-TIME PITCH TRACKER TO ANALYZE Your INSTRUMENT'S OUTPUT

WHETHER YOU ARE USING A GUITAR, A BASS, OR A MICROPHONE - THE motor's rotational speed WILL BE PRECISELY MATCHED to THE FUNDAMENTAL FREQUENCY THAT YOU ARE PLAYING

FOR EXAMPLE - TO MATCH A 440HZ INPUT TONE - THE MOTOR WILL HAVE TO ROTATE AT A CORRESPONDING SPEED OF 146 REVOLUTIONS PER SECOND

A carefully calibrated inductor captures the real-world motion of the motor’s spinning coils—transforming mechanical energy into a raw, electric audio signal.

FIVE MOTOR-BASED
SYNTHESIS ENGINES

The MOTOR Pedal features five unique and powerful sound engines based on the motor core:

MOTOR - Raw electromagnetic pickup of the spinning coils. Glitchy, growling, magnetic.

MXD - Cross-modulation of the motor with a digital waveform. creates HARSH, DISTORTED AND METALLIc textures.

M-WAVE - A digital oscillator that's PITCH-LOCKED & HARD-SYNCED to the motor's output.
a multitimbral synth with aN IMPERFECT mechanical soul.

COIL MODE - instead of spinning the motor with DC Voltage - We inject alternating current into the motor's coils to create resonant analog vibrations & metallic hums.
THIS IS AN INNOVATIVE SYNTHESIS METHOD THAT SOUNDS LIKE NOSTALGIA ON STEROIDS.

VOCODER MODE - A 24 BAND DIGITAL VOCODER THAT USES THE MOTOR'S OUTPUT AS THE CARRIER AND Your instrument's output AS the modulator.
Speak, sing, or shred DIRECTLY through the machine.

PARAMETER CONTROL

Analog TONE BOOST – A POWERFUL TILT EQ FOR SHAPING THE MOTOR OUTPUT

independent Volumes – Sculpt raw motor output

motor drive – Sculpt raw motor output

Envelope – Shape your attacks, bends, and glides

Portamento – Shape your attacks, bends, and glides

vibrato – Shape your attacks, bends, and glides

motor Interval Selector - ALLOWS YOU TO OFFSET THE motor pitch: +/- 1 octave or perfect fifths or perfect fourths

X-MOD Mode – use Amplitude modulation to Cross-mod the input signal with all motor engines. offset engines

STEP ON THE GAS

the MOTOR Pedal COMES EQUIPPED with a MULTI-MODE GAS pedaL

ACCELERATOR - create a wide range of controlled pitch-shift or floor it to redline the motor

BRAKE - downward pitch-shift, or mash the pedal to bring the motor to a stall

CLUTCH - temporarily disconnect the motor from the pitch-tracker - perfect for creating drones

VOLUME - use the spring-loaded pedal to CREATE satisfying volume swells

DRIFT - play the pedal like a gentle vibrato arm, or just floor it to get a complete wipe-out

DURABILITY

THE MOTOR PEDAL USES A SPECIALLY-DESIGNED BRUSHED DC ELECTRO-MOTOR BLOCK AS ITS CORE SOUND ENGINE.

OVER TIME THE MOTOR'S BRUSHES ARE GOING TO erode AND THE MOTOR block WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED - INDICATED BY THE PEDAL'S CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNING ORANGE AND THEN RED

THE MOTOR block IS A user REPLACEABLE PART
ESTIMATED LIFESPAN AROUND 3000-5000 hours of intensive PLAYING
INSTALLING A REPLACEMENT MOTOR FROM GCA IS A BREEZE - COMPARABLE TO CHANGING A SET OF TUBES IN YOUR AMP.

the MOTOR REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE IS extremely SIMPLE AND DOES NOT REQUIRE PROFESSIONAL SERVICING.
