Gamechanger Audio's AUTO Series M-Type pedals redefine classic audio effects with
cutting-edge parameter automation - carefully designed to become part of your performance.
Rather than overwhelming you with a variety of pre-made, quirky sounds, we provide you with
the essential toolset: three nuanced algorithms, four vital parameter controls, two exceptionally
precise dynamics & pitch tracker engines, and a set of patching accesories.
With these building blocks and the knowledge contained in this booklet - you will be able to
explore an endless array of sound possibilities. The combinations are virtually limitless, allowing
you to continuously breathe new life into the AUTO CHORUS and create soundscapes that
naturally evolve with your playing, offering a unique musical experience every time.
Dive into this expansive world of creativity, where every patch and every performance reflects
your personal artistry, imagination and technical ability.

Page 2: Automation Modes
PATCH-BAY & AUTOMATION CONTROLS: Each of the pedal's four parameters has a dedicated Automation input socket with a corresponding indication LED, and a mini-knob (AUTO knob) used for adjusting the amount and direction of the incoming Control Voltage (CV). AUTOMATION is achieved by sending a CV into the according parameter’s CV Input, and attenuating the CV with the AUTOMATION mini-knob. - Page 3 DYNAMICS BAR: CV output White LED bar displays your instrument's level within the pedal's headroom at all times. Input lvl The THRESHOLD point is a bright segment that can be moved across the Threshold bar with the DYNAMICS knob. Control Voltage (CV) will be produced when the input signal reaches and crosses the THRESHOLD point, turning it red.

Page 4: Note Mode
PITCH BAR & PITCH MODES: The PITCH tracking engine analyzes the tonal content of the input signal at all times and displays it as a moving WHITE moving CURSOR on the PITCH LED Bar. Depending on the PITCH MODE and settings - the cursor will move in and out of CV ZONES - indicated as RED or BLUE LED segments on the PITCH BAR - the brightness shows output CV strength - up to 5V. -

PITCH RAMP parameter: Hold the ON footswitch and turn the PITCH knob to adjust the RAMP parameter - represented by YELLOW segments on the PITCH BAR. When turned all the way down, the PITCH tracker will follow your input pitch with maximum speed, whereas increasing the RAMP bar will make the PITCH tracker's output smoother by introducing a “glide”... -
