Mooer Pitchbox Pitch Shifter Harmonizer Pedal MPS1

Product Information

Thanks to the MASH technology, the TC Electronic Quintessence Harmony pedal allows you to bend harmonized notes without moving a finger. And with TC Electronic’s proprietary TonePrint technology, you can choose exotic scales and custom intervals for harmonies. Using this pedal couldn’t be easier. The MASH footswitch gives you a powerful expressive tool without needing an extra expression pedal. The MASH switch default settings bend your harmonized note to the next interval within the scale. Simply use the Shift knob to select the desired interval you want to bend to, and then use the Latch switch to select the direction of the bend (up or down, or both if Dual mode is selected). It does not get any simpler than this.

This pedal goes well beyond pitch effects. It is an intelligent pitch shifter that allows you to input which key and scale you’re playing so that every shifted note remains in key. This allows you to switch between two intervals without touching any knobs and lets you do fluid pedal steel bends that would make Nashville proud. The PitchFactor comes with 10 of Eventide‘s signature pitch and delay effects, which can be ideal for guitar players and bassists and can help singers come up with perfectly tuned harmonies. If you want the most comprehensive pitch-shifting option, look no further than the PitchFactor. 4. BOSS PS-6 Harmonist It is a classic pitch shifter pedal that has stood the test of time and found its way into the DAWs of many producers and engineers, expanding its usability beyond the realm of instrumentalists and into the studio. FAQ What Do Pitch Shifter Pedals Do? This classic pitch shifter pedal has been around for decades and is in its fifth generation. It now comes with even more features but without any confusion or clutter.The PS-6 is BOSS‘ new-generation pedal for harmony shifting with improved sound quality thanks to BOSS‘s powerful DSP. This pedal can generate two or three voices in the following modes: Pitch Shifter, Detune, and Harmony. This can add depth to your guitar sound and tonal possibilities. A variety of instrumentalists can also use it. You can fatten snares, de-tune synths, spread guitars, and create elaborate vocals to spice up your mix.

The Electro Harmonix Pitch Fork is also polyphonic, which allows you to handle chords for rhythm guitar and lead or even bass. This is one of the best pitch shifters around, made by one of the most respected pedal companies. 2. Mooer Pitch Box The detune option mixes a subtle pitch shift with your original sound for an ambient and spacy sound reminiscent of a chorus or tremolo effect, but with a bit of a twist. On the other hand, the harmonizer is accurate and responsive. However, you can’t select a specific key for the harmony. On the left side is the Harmony column, which provides a full-on harmonize pedal, and you can use the expression pedal to switch between the notes in the intervals or blend them together. This pedal sounds good, especially in Detune and Harmony modes. It does not feature a blend knob or dry/wet control, which may be a deal-breaker for some. The Pitch Box is still a great choice for this price range and size. 3. Eventide PitchFactorThe Whammy V is an excellent option for those who want a pitch shifter with an expression pedal, rather than just a pure harmonize effect. You can bend the pitch across a 7-octave span, from -3 to + 4 octaves. With the BOSS PS-6 you can also control the bending effect in real-time with the pedal knob or through an external expression pedal.

In TonePrint mode, you can assign MASH to control just about any aspect of this stompbox, including custom scale steps above and below the original harmony. Pitch shifter pedals are a class of frequency pedals that work by raising or lowering the signal’s harmonic content. This opens up a world of colorful possibilities for guitar players, allowing them to reach notes that would otherwise be physically impossible. The PitchFactor features some of Eventide‘s most coveted algorithms from the H910, Quadravox, and even the Crystals effect, all the way to the HarPeggiator and HarModulator. Despite all the features, it is still relatively simple to use. You dial in your key and scale, then select which interval you want to shift to and its direction. You can then add anywhere from one to four voices.

Customer reviews

The Eventide PitchFactor is our premium choice for the most discerning guitarists. It features many choices and the top-notch quality of sounds, functionality, and depth. It is used by renowned musicians like St. Vincent, Deadmau5, and Katy Perry. Features The Mooer Pitch Box offers great value in a very small format. It features a three-way toggle at the top to select one of its three modes: harmonizer, pitch shifter or detune. Please note the all Mooer micro series pedals must be powered by 9V DC (not supplied) as they are too small for battery compartments! Specification On the right side, you select the interval of your choice with a single knob. The options include +/- 2 octaves, 1 octave, a fifth, a fourth, and a second interval. The last option is “Dive Bomb” which takes your pitch 3 octaves down.

This pitch shifter pedal features the H949 engine, which uses a proprietary autocorrelation algorithm to make intelligent splicing decisions. However, you can “simplify” the algorithm by selecting a simple crossfade algorithm that results in characteristic glitching. This pitch-shifting unit also offers you 7 intervals to choose from: minor and major second, major third, perfect fourth, perfect fifth, major 6th, and minor seventh. There is also an expression input available, so you can easily bend into and out of the desired interval using an expression pedal. If you love to bend pitches and shift them while creating unique sounds, this is the pedal for you! 6. TC Electronic Quintessence Harmony This Electro-Harmonix pitch-shifting pedal features a smart and simple design that sports only two knobs (Blend and Shift), one small button (Latch), a dual switch, and a footswitch that activates the effect.

They are capable of harmonies and octaves, but a good pitch shifter will allow you to create everything from truly warped and out-there sounds to more subtle doubling and chorus effects. Where Should A Pitch Shifter Go In The Chain?
