With a single click, this innovative pedal employs artificial intelligence to generate the distinctive guitar tones from any song you input
The music industry is witnessing an exciting evolution, with AI technology playing an increasingly significant role. One such innovation is the OnePedal by Groundhog Audio, a revolutionary AI-driven guitar pedal that promises to simplify the process of tone matching.
Groundhog Audio, founded by tech wizz Max Engle, is launching this groundbreaking product. The OnePedal works by instantly matching your guitar tone to any song you want to emulate or play along with, using AI technology to analyse and replicate tones in real time. It is designed to deliver the exact sound character of the track, streamlining the process of tone matching without manual tweaking.
While details about the OnePedal are currently sparse, it is known that the pedal has three selectable banks of presets and two footswitches for scrolling through additional presets. The pedal's signal chain can include an octave pedal, overdrive, and distortion pedal, potentially replicating tones such as Eddie Van Halen's Hot For Teacher lead tones, David Gilmour's cleans, and SRV Dumble sounds.
Regarding its features, the available information does not specify the exact number of presets that OnePedal offers. Since it leverages AI to match any tone instantly, it implies that the pedal dynamically creates or retrieves tones rather than relying solely on fixed presets. There is also no explicit mention of OnePedal connecting directly to music streaming services like Spotify or Apple Music.
The core feature emphasises instant tone matching accuracy, which suggests the pedal automates tone adjustments rather than requiring manual control. It is presented as a tool that "instantly matches your tone" with minimal user input.
Groundhog Audio is inviting players to invest a refundable $1 to gauge interest in the OnePedal. The Kickstarter campaign for the OnePedal is scheduled to launch this summer. Early investors may also receive a limited edition guitar pick and sticker.
The OnePedal shares similarities with the rePEDAL, an AI-powered overdrive pedal. Both demonstrate the growing prominence of AI in music-making. However, the effectiveness of the technology used in the OnePedal is yet to be determined.
As the music industry continues to evolve, the OnePedal by Groundhog Audio is set to make a significant impact, offering guitarists the ability to instantly match their tone to any song they want, at the click of a button.
