One turned up fairly cheap locally. Would like the opinion of fuzz heads instead of crap youtube videos. I should be saving for other cool stuff but...

It has a lot of cool and interesting sounds. I never used the intelligent harmony function, er, intelligently, but I loved using the dive bomb effect, the detuner, and using the harmony for atonal noise nonsense. A good thing to use as a recording insert and fuck with knobs. It has a few very cool tricks in it, and if you can get it for cheap, go for it. You can always resell it when you get bored.

absolutely you do
so much awesome shit in there
i am usin the ps6 for most of the shift/harm
and ps5 for detune
just cause ps6 sounds alot better
and does the 3voice thing
but itll definately intensify
whatever you put through it
im not gonna go into why the ps6 os better
not really relevant to your situation
all i know is youll have fun with the 5

I bought one new a few years ago and traded it for "The Roar". I kind of miss it. Tracked nice, but I never learned how to use it as I wasn't using a ton of effects at the time.
