The beast pedal

I am glad i chose Electro Harmonix to build the basics in my small pedalboard.

Playing different tunings in an instant is simple magic.

Playing bass lines to the looper is awesome.

Playing with the expression pedal adds a whole new galaxy to wonder.

I find the pedal great even without a single use of the mixed signal. I just play full wet.

Only con is the small amount of latency, but it's not deal-breaker.

Awesome pedal!

Have had a lot of fun deep-diving into what this pedal can do. It's especially fun putting it to 5ths and sending it through an auto-filter pedal!

Awesome tool! Used to tune down my bass

I've had this pitch shifter for about 7 months now and it has been working great. Used it at the last show I played to tune down my bass guitar (Harely Benton JB) from standard E down to C. Check out some of the songs here:

note, though, is it won't go directly to C# from E standard. If you want C# you'll have to tune down to E flat.

Still the best…

Among many pitch effects such as Tc Electronic and Digitech, PitchFork is still the most successful. Ehx I don't know as I haven't tried the new product IHM. I expect the sounds to be much better because it's still not quite natural and metallic. But PitchFork does this very well.

Great if you hate changing tunings

I got this pedal because I like to play in a variety of tunings but I hate to constantly retune my guitar. I was blown away by how well it performs. The tone is great compared to its price. 10/10 made me enjoy playing much more.

Great in all aspects except a bit noisy

Great and fast tracking, even polyphonic, lots of options, great octave sound up and down, good for testing different down-tunnings.

Only a bit noisy when activated, adding bit a fuzz on top only worsens, but its maneagable.

Surprised at tracking

I expected the tracking to not be great but's it much better than I thought it would be. Not gone on the upper octave (sound I mean), but that is personal taste. I use it mainly for the lower octaves and it is a great tool for any solo instrumentalist performers who are looping material. The intervals are cool enough but only in moderation, haven't found much practical use for them as a series or consecutive major 3rds for example doesn't really work, you'd need a mix of major and minor. Like the 9ths. Can be useful for transposing a key down as well. Good and useful pedal and worth the price I think. I wish EH pedals didn't sound so obviously EH, sorry if that sounds vague but I'm hearing that particular EH sound, particularly in the upper octaves everywhere now. Must be the tracking.

This is a great pedal that does a lot of things very well. It adds a lot of tonal versatility to your sound. Not a first pedal by any means, but a great tool to have especially when playing without a bass player (drums, guitar, vocal), or for recording.

an awesome tool for expanding your sound

this pedal comes with a very strong metal body like all the products from EHX. it's perfect as an octaver and the blend function allow you to find the perfect mix among the original sound of the instrument and the shifter. It has a lot of pitch possibilities, from minor 2 until 3rd octave, the switch allow you to hear only the upper register, or only the low register and with the middle position you can hear the upper and normal register. it is possible to use it like an expression pedal, holding the footswitch for all the time you want, or like a normal pedal On/Off. I use this product both on bass and guitar.

Best of what is available in Pitch pedals

Very sensitive to power supply voltage interference. Buttons are also easily accidentally moved but it tracks really superbly well and that is why I love it and have not found a better substitute yet
