I traded out my SR-16 for a Boss PS-5 pitch shifter, harmonizer. I wasn't thinking much of it, might use it might nowe, but realized it does the whammy thing, pitch shift, and does a nice chorusy/detune thing. I don't use chorus much but for 1 or two songs I do and I always do the turn-the-tuning machine-as-quick-as-possible thing for a couple of VH cover for dive bomb effect so this has come in handy on my board. obviously not my piktar but you can get the idea of its possibilities.

Re: NPD
fuck, I just realized the guy said he had an expression eye thingy for it, I bet it's still in the box... I forgot all about it... I hope I did not throw that box out...

Re: NPD
I hope you didn't either!
The intelligent harmonizer feature is useful for... harmony leads. Iron Maiden in a box.

Re: NPD
one of the bands does a couple of tunes a harmonizer would work on, or are talking of it, but we have 2 guitarists so, as long as the other one doesn't get THAT drunk we're ok.

Re: NPD
That's all well and good, but do you get any rhythm guitar under it? No. So use the harmonizer!

Re: NPD
I am really happy with this one, I get harmonies, chorus, and whammy dive bombs all in one pedal. I rarely use any of them, but to not have to deal with different pedals and a trem on my fiddle, I am very happy. I didn't use the eye expression yet, maybe over the weekend. I'll let you know how it goes.

Re: NPD
yes. From what I've read you can use it as a Whammy. I'm not thinking I will use it for that, especially with an optic eye, more importantly... I CAN DO EEEET

Re: NPD
Getting whammy from an optical sensor is wicked badass.
