Thicken your sound with detuning, bend single notes in Tremolo Arm mode, add flutter and more. More than just a pitch shifter, this guitar pedal does it all.

Features:

- Compact pedal with high-quality pitch shifting, harmonist, and tremolo arm effects.
- Intelligent, key-specific pitch shifting of single notes using simple Pitch and Key knobs with scale display.
- Key Shift outputs continuous shifted tone for playing in different keys.
- Detune effect provides slight shifting for "fattening" a guitar sound.
- Tremolo Arm effect bends single notes up or down to a pre-selected value when pedal is activated; optional expression pedal can be connected for realtime control.
- Flutter effect simulates fast or slow "slap" or "slam" of tremolo bar when pedal is depressed.

"that blue thing"

Overall: 4 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
It is fun, but there can be better pedals.
Sound
It's not really a pedal requiring good sound, so i'll rate it blank
Features
Very fun and entertaining. with the tremolo arm, you can do all sorts of stuff like bending up or down during a song. If you bend up, and then release it down, then it is like going from a synth sound back to a heavy metal part .VERY COOL. I do wish that it could actually detune ur guitar, but u get very close on harmonics when you set the balance meter all the way to the effect( coming out with a sortuve detuned effect). The flutter is also cool.
Quality
The best quality lies in Boss' hands. It is as tough as a tank.
Value
Not the best for 150 dollars
Manufacturer Support
Never needed em'
The Wow Factor
