Cooper FXExpression Generator Multi Expression Controller

Cooper FX Expression Generator

Cooper FX's Exp Gen is a four output, multi-faceted expression controller perfect for adding movement and depth to your pedal board without the need for extra limbs. With four assignable outputs, the main soft button determines what mode to run per output—these include auto, tap, tigger, and latch.

Auto mode is a set modulation that runs cyclically with no need to engage, while tap mode determines the rate of modulation based on tapping in the tempo via the footswitch. Trigger mode sweeps the modulation in an upward motion from zero, where the amount and length of modulation is based off of how long you press the footswitch, while Latch mode acts in the same way—but instead of resetting when the footswitch is released, the modulation holds out the amount at which it was last released.

Each of Exp Gen's modes can be edited by the start and stop knobs at the top of the pedal, acting like a gain and bias for the controls it affects. When you hold the soft button, you enter Exp Gen's shift mode, where you can also determine how fast or slow the rise and fall of the modulation acts. This feature is great for creating a variety of modulation shapes, and with four channels, you have tons of possibilities for making complex pedal tones. Additionally, there is a MIDI input for even further integration in a performance or production setup, making Cooper FX's Exp Gen a powerful source of creativity throughout your pedal board.
