The <PITCH> group includes pitch shifters, mono and dual detuners,
arpeggiators and DigiTech’s exclusive Whammy™.
Pitch shifters allow you to change your input note by a specified inter-
val and mix it with the original, creating a harmony. The effect is similar
to two or more guitars playing different notes simultaneously.
Detuning is similar in sound to a chorus, except that its pitch remains
constant, rather that modulating back and forth between two points. It
is best visualized in terms of two guitar strings tuned to the same
approximate pitch; both are tuned to the same note, but each is slightly
out of tune with the other. Both notes are constant in pitch, but subtle
additions in richness and overtones can be heard.
DigiTech’s exclusive Whammy™ allows you to create mind-bending
dive bombs and pitch bends with the continuous controller pedal on
the RP-12 pedalboard. All the intervals are selectable and can be
stored in memory for later use. You’ve never heard anything like it!
An arpeggiator is simply a pitch shifter in the feedback loop of a delay.
Each time a note is fed back to the input of the pitch shifter, it is once
again pitch shifted and sent to the delay, which, in turn, sends part of
the signal to the output and the rest back into the pitch shifter to repeat
the process. With high feedback settings and short delay times, the
sound is reminiscent of an early analog synthesizer. Parameters are
