Looks pretty fun! Not as many options as the pitch fork but I'm not in Van Halen so...

The cat is out of the bag!
Specific to this forum: In addition to all the cool stuff the Ricochet does, we also discovered why certain digital pedals don't play nice with fuzzes and fixed them. PSU noise? Gone. Strange noise when a fuzz is post Whammy? Gone.
Thank Leaves Turn (pd~) for these discoveries, he spent a lot of time getting this guy right!

That's the current moniker these days.
Either way, sounds like good news to me.

Can you do it on a black, white, or bare metal enclosure? I have a theme going on
I mean obviously it's not a deal breaker
I feel like this pedal is my reward for not jumping on a pitch shifter already. The only dedicated shifter I've owned was the bass whammy and I loved it but...too big.
So this can handle baritone okay right?

Are you starting a band called "the neonblack stripes"?

Seems nice, the Whammy is still the coolest sounding digital pitch shifter around I'd say.
No MIDI and no dry / wet or mix volume I guess though, right? (especially the volume would have been great)

No MIDI, that is reserved for the big Whammy's. No mix, mix isn't really a Whammy thing and I really want this to be smack dab in the Wham Fam.

I call this look "Brushed Black Cherry" and it will look awesome as the only red pedal on your black/white/metal pedalboard!

Yes it will handle bari and bass just fine.

Okay, the "classic" glitchy mode with slower rise and fall did sound really cool.
