From Gamechanger:

The LIGHT Pedal explores a new way of picking up the spring's vibrations - using multiple sets of infrared optical sensors (acting as photoelectric pickups) placed carefully at different positions along the length of the springs.

DETAILED SOUND-SCULPTING
The LIGHT Pedal has three separate volume controls that provide detailed control over the pedal’s output signal.

FX SECTION
The LIGHT Pedal features six unique on-board FX modes that harvest the natural sound properties of the spring-tank and optical sensor system.

The FX are grouped into two main categories: Optical FX and Mechanical FX.

trem: a pulsating effect achieved by switching the optical sensors on and off. A tremolo effect can also be applied to the spring output. The CTRL knob adjusts the modulation speed.

2. MECHANICAL FX
reflect: a lo-fi delay algorithm that sends multiple repeats of the instrument’s signal back into the spring tank. The CTRL knob adjusts the delay time parameter. Holding the footswitch and using CTRL adjusts the optical sensor.

feedback: a special circuit that causes the spring tank to self-oscillate. The CTRL knob adjusts the central pitch of the feedback loop.

These effects can be used to create soundscapes, drones and ambient layers, and they are particularly effective when used with the footswitch in momentary mode.

ADDITIONAL FX PARAMETERS
In sweep mode, holding the footswitch and turning the CTRL knob lets you select between various sweep curve types. In all other FX modes,  FSW+CTRL adjusts the optical sensor pairs.

FX modes can be combined by holding the footswitch and turning the FX selector knob – for example, you can combine sweep mode with reflect mode and perform individual parameter tweaks.

fsw + gate knob makes the CTRL parameter responsive to input signal levels, thus producing dynamic variations in all FX modes.

EXPRESSION INPUT
The EXP input allows you to control various knob parameters of the LIGHT Pedal with any standard expression pedal.

By default, the EXP input is linked to the FX section’s CTRL parameter, but you can assign it to any knob on the front panel (except tone).
