Oh jeez, reading about the function of the latch mode... Yeah this seems promising if the price is alright.

Definitely blows the Digitech Drop out of the water.

Reeeeal nice functionality, and I'm impressed that they've included expression pedal input on something in a "nano" case.



What's the bet they'll pair this with the Superego or Freeze for their next dual pedal/multi effects unit?

Wow, sounds great. And the expression control is handy. Looks like they upgraded their jacks too!

I would have rather seen dry/mix outputs rather than expression control. This is killer though.

Yeah, dry/mix out would have been cool too. The curse of the EHX Quirk

It doesn't seem to sound as good as a pog, but obviously does more. Again, I'd rather see them do something more original than a whammy, but it has some appeal.

Where are you guys seeing the price?

Bonus tip: use lotion because your hands might one day be filmed close up in HD.

that sounded wayyy nicer than the Digitech Drop demo to my ears. it already wins for having a glissando rate function for the momentary mode, and it's probably a fair bit less expensive too.
a bit annoyed at limited interval selection but its a small pedal and even the bigger ones have that issue, the only ones good for making up weird harmony combinations are like the Pitch Bay, Bitquest etc which don't really sound as pristine but w/e.
let's hope there isn't a volume drop though.

Dang. Okay, back to experiments in intentionally getting my PS-5 to glitch out.

But does it do drop D?

Really nice sounding tho, could EHX finally be getting their shit together??

If you're in E standard tuning the Major 3rd Down mode will put you in C standard. Basically every polyphonic pitch shifter out there has a M3 down function.

I thought this demo was pretty cool. I'm at least partially interested for no reason other than because.

I do wish the blend had its own output. I wonder what that kind of mod might look like? I'll probably wait on this to see if anything like that comes out that way when I pick one up on the flip I can have the mod done without losing a limb.

Sweet, thanks for clearing that up. It sounds really smooth, and I do like it quite a bit more looks wise than the drop. So I might go for this.
