The Luminary is a powerful polyphonic quad octave generator with features for creating inspiring symphonic gusts of sound. Operating on the Analog Devices Sharc platform, the Luminary gives you the ability to dial in any combination of four separate octaves including -2, -1, +1, and +2, the user can craft many different complex sounds and textures with crystal clear and immediate octave tracking. The Luminary has three onboard presets available for saving your go-to sounds, as a well as live mode. This means the user can have up to four custom sounds available at any moment. Get epic steel sounds with the modulation control unengaged. You’ll find more experimental options with the filter control or a tremolo effect with the flutter control. Couple the Luminary with an expression pedal to expand its creativity even more.
Four octave options available -2, -1, +1, +2 – The four knobs across the top of the pedal control the level of each octave. With the Dry/Wet control, the user can explore the ground between minimum and 12 o’clock to keep the octave signal lower than your dry signal for subtleness. The territory between 12 o’clock and maximum keeps the user’s dry signal lower than unity for a boastful octave sound.
The Attack control dictates how fast the octaves bloom after the initial attack. Allow the octaves to swell in gradually at a higher attack setting. Hear immediate octave response with the attack control low or off. The Filter knob controls the cutoff of a low-pass filter on the octave signals and also increases an envelope type effect at higher settings. The Flutter knob enables a tremolo effect that can be applied to the octaves. At zero, the tremolo effect is off. Increasing this knob engages the tremolo modulation and controls the rate of the effect.
The expression control allows the manipulation of any combination of these options to allow the user to customize the effectiveness of the Luminary: -1 and +1 octave volume, +1 octave volume, Attack, Flutter, and Dry/Wet.

Octave
An octave pedal is a type of guitar effects pedal that generates tones one or two octaves above or below the original signal. This effect can create a wide range of sonic textures, from thickening the sound to adding harmonies and creating synthetic basslines. Here’s how octave pedals work and some common features:
1. **Octave Up/Down**: Octave pedals typically offer the option to generate tones one octave above (octave up) or below (octave down) the original signal. Some advanced pedals may even offer both octave up and down simultaneously for more versatility.
2. **Blend Control**: Many octave pedals include a blend control, allowing you to adjust the mix between the original signal and the octave-generated signal. This feature enables you to dial in the perfect balance between the two for your desired effect.
3. **Tracking**: Tracking refers to how accurately the pedal follows the input signal and generates the octave. Higher-quality octave pedals have better tracking, meaning they accurately reproduce the pitch of the original note without latency or glitching.
4. **Polyphonic vs. Monophonic**: Some octave pedals are polyphonic, meaning they can accurately track multiple notes and chords played simultaneously. Monophonic pedals, on the other hand, work best with single notes and may struggle with chords.
5. **Sub-Octave**: In addition to octave up and down, some octave pedals offer a sub-octave effect, generating tones two octaves below the original signal. This can create deep, bass-like tones and add richness to your sound.
6. **Effects Loop**: Some octave pedals include an effects loop, allowing you to place other effects before or after the octave effect in the signal chain. This can open up creative possibilities for combining octave effects with other modulation or time-based effects.
7. **Expression Pedal Compatibility**: Certain octave pedals are compatible with expression pedals, which allow you to control parameters such as octave blend, pitch bend, or even the interval of the generated octave in real-time using your foot.
Octave pedals are widely used in various music genres, including rock, funk, jazz, and experimental music. Guitarists use them to create unique sounds, emulate basslines, and add depth and dimension to their playing. Whether you’re looking to thicken your tone, create harmonies, or explore new sonic territories, an octave pedal can be a valuable addition to your pedalboard.
