Don't know if it helps anyone at all but i was looking at a lot of these cheap pitch shifting pedals and recently got a similar Donner Harmonic square pedal purely to get my JIVA 10 in D standard (for 80's metal stuff) without having to spend ages with the setup and it works great for that. as long as you only go down 1-3 notches its fine but it does start to lose tone the lower you go but you can kinda fight against it with your amp settings but the sweet spot is definitely only going I got the pedal purely for this but actually have a lot of fun with it, you can harmonize some killer Leads and even kinda emulate a 12 string. I was not expecting a pedal this cheap to be this good. Because it gives you wet/dry control you can fully cut out the regular tuning and have only the higher or lower tuning come through (without the harmony as shown here) as well as blend what you want and im pretty sure it costs the same as this, if not a little cheaper.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I've seen the Harmonic Square can't don't single semitones. So you wouldn't be able to detune in half steps. So no E to E flat and vice versa. Kinda of defeats the purpose for me.

Timely, was thinking of getting these for my bandmates.

Quick question for anyone who has one, does the knob create a scratchy sound or any sound when turning it rapidly between settings on any of the 3 modes? I bought one a while back and it seemed a bit defective - was making unwanted noises as I switched between settings. - perhaps that one was a dud.

I have not had that issue. Anyone else?

Do you find it of for drop tuning a quarter or half step or more OK for the metal? Some reviews it has a little chorus. Then again so does the drop tune pedal.
@davlavmusic707021 күн бұрын
I think, like most shifters, it does better the lower the shift amount. So it will do one or two half steps pretty well. But the more you shift it, the more it starts to sound more artificial.

@davlavmusic7070 thanks. That's really helpful. I may go for this rather. Much cheaper than a whammy dt.

So I’m kinda confused. Would this pedal allow me to play songs in D or C standard while my guitar is still in E? I’m trying to look for a pedal that will allow me to do that so I don’t need a whole new setup for my guitar

he does say that it only works for single note or double note lines, but doesn't track well for more than that, e.g triads or chords....check his wrap up of the pitch shift section 9:50 on...

Can you set it so the detune is 100% - not blended with the original tone?

I just bought one of these and non of my cables work with it. I've used 9 volt, 12 volt & 24 volt. Took it somewhere who has a ton of pedals and his 24 volt plug worked perfectly with it. Now I don't wanna sink about 15 quid on a cable that might not work!

Interesting. I just plugged it into my power supply (www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00WHLLDWO/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1) and it worked with no issues.

So the pitch shift on this only adds the extra note? As in i cant change the tuning of the guitar with it?

how to drop D or C?
@davlavmusic707025 күн бұрын
In pitch shift mode you can drop the whole guitar down a while step (or 2). But if you're looking to just drop the low E to D or C, no pedal will do that.

It would be a more accurate video if you didn’t already have delay and possibly something else on which already sounds good. The pitch sounds ok but the harmonized is cheesy

No sale! They ruined it by the chorus effect. Thanks for posting video
