Redline your tone

Whether you're doubling a melody, building a drone, or fusing your signal with cross-modulated motor tones, the Motor Pedal revs up your signal into a machine that bites back.

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 HARMONY CREATOR, use IT AS A POWERFUL and versatile DRONE GENERATOR, or distort & process your instrument with the 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 THE MOTOR WILL HAVE TO ROTATE AT
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 signal 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

TWO VOLUME KNOBS - independent Volume control for DRY SIGNAL and MOTOR OUTPUt

motor drive – heavy analog distortion for the motor output

Envelope – go from short, punctuated stabs - to envelope follower - to long releases

glide – applies a portamento curve to the motor engine

vibrato – classic pitch modulation - from subtle movement to wild oscillation

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.

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 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.
