Multi-effects units are always a blast to explore, and when they’re in Stereo, it’s even more fun. The ALABS Audio Orbital Pitch Shifter is a stereo digital pedal, offering a wide range of pitch-shifting effects, including Pitch Shifter, Octave, Micropitch, Harmonizer, Whammy Sound and more. Other features include Differential True Stereo mode, analog dry-through and two selectable Bypass modes, plus momentary operation via the footswitch.
- 9 Pitch Shifting Effects: Upward shifts include major 3rd (4 semitones), 4th (5 semitones), 5th (7 semitones), and Octave (12 semitones); Downward shifts include minor 3rd (3 semitones), 4th (5 semitones), 5th (7 semitones), and Octave (12 semitones); Unison shifts within a microtonal pitch
- Microtonal Pitch Modulation: Allows for a maximum range of +/- 100 cents and 10Hz frequency modulation on the target pitch
- Microtonal True Stereo: Adds upward and downward pitch variations to the left and right channels respectively, creating a wide and immersive stereo field
- Advanced Audio Algorithm Engine: Powered by ALABS’ Wizard Audio Virtual Engine, utilizing high-precision dynamic forward virtual circuit modeling technology, running on a high-performance 32-bit floating-point digital signal processor (DSP)
- Analog dry-through: Features a controllable independent analog dry-through buffer amplification circuit, preserving the unaffected, zero-latency, pure dry signal without AD / DA conversion
- Selectable Bypass Modes: Provides high-quality relay-based true bypass and transparent analog buffer bypass options for selection
- Momentary operation: Allows for instant pitch bending, either upwards or downwards, to the selected target pitch using the footswitch
- Creative Explore Mode: Achieve dynamic variations and complex creative effects by simply holding down the footswitch to unleash multiple parameter transformations
The footswitch really makes this one, as it will make you rethink your song structure and how to bend already altered, modulated notes. It’s a great addition to a great modulation pedal – be sure to head over to the ALABS Audio website for more info on the Orbital Stereo Pitch Shifter. We did a fairly lengthy demo below as well, running through all of these modes, and checking out that awesome footswitch…enjoy it!!
