"Great for lower tunings."

This pedal eliminates the need to have multiple guitars for lower tunings. If you're into playing stoner rock/doom which often uses C# standard tuning or lower, it only takes a turn of the knob to adjust your tuning a half step higher or lower...and the tracking sounds great!

"The Absolute The Best Poly Shifter!"
Verified Purchaser
zZounds has verified that this reviewer purchased this specific product from us.
This is the absolute best poly shifter effect pedal I've ever used. I've owned several, Digitech Drop, EHX Pitch Fork, Line 6 Poly Capo in the HELIX, Headrush Prime Drop Tune and more in plug-ins. All did the job and in a live mix, no artifacts were heard. However, this Boss XS-1 Poly Shifter has the most natural and responsive sound I have every heard from a pitch shifter effects. I used it live during a bar gig in Fort Lauderdale and it worked flawlessly. I used it to drop -1 down to Eb for a couple of songs and then quickly switched to a blended root +5th for Owner of a Lonely Heart cover. This pedal is vey versatile. Get it! You'll be happy with it.
