Caline CP-36 Big Dipper Pitch Shifter

Product Information

Nowadays, there are brands on the market that can make a great-sounding guitar pedal for an affordable price. For example, Mooer, Caline, Boss, Behringer, etc… All these brands make decent effect pedals that sell for affordable prices.

My Review: BOSS’ exceptional VE-2 is technically a harmonizer for vocalists, but I’ve included it on this list because it can also be used with electric guitar. This pedal is a brilliant tool to have as part of your rig, both for recording and performing live.

The Op-Amp Big Muff was popularized by the brilliant Billy Corgan who first used it on the Smashing Pumpkins’ epic 1993 album Siamese Dream. After he was videotaped playing and talking about the reissue, Billy stated: ‘The magic’s still in the box, I can still get what I’m looking for!’” - Mike Matthews The Harmonist has four knobs – Balance(Wet/Dry), Shift(Harmony), Fall Time/Key, and a Mode selector switch. The versatility of this pedal comes from the fact that it has four modes: S-Bend, Detune, Pitch-Shifter, and Harmony (Major/Minor). Eventide is renowned for its high-end, advanced algorithms. The PitchFactor Harmonizer comes with MIDI and USB connectivity, making it a valuable tool in the recording studio and on the stage. In terms of the harmonizer effect, I liked the vast range of intervals and tones that can be added to the dry signal of the guitar.

Finally, the ‘Harmony’ control, which may be called ‘Interval’, is used to select the distance in tones between the original note played on the guitar and the harmony created by the pedal. For example, you could set this to ‘5th’ to create a harmony that is 5 notes away from the root. With the Shift selector switch, you can choose the interval that you want the Pitch Fork to produce for you (m2, M2, m3, M4, P4, P5, M6, m7, 1Oct, 2, Oct, 3Oct are available), and there is also the Detune mode, which is pretty self-explanatory. Of course, the control knobs on the pedal are different for each model. Furthermore, with the Marshmallow pedal, you can use the four factories’ pre-sets or make and store your own. If you have a MIDI controller, you can go even further and store 16 presets, all accessible with the push of your finger. The three small-sized controls across the top layer of the Pure Octave pedal are responsible for the conventional octave-shifting effect. Moreover, after analyzing the functions of the controls I discovered that you can blend the trio to essentially build your harmonies one layer at a time.Who is this best suited for: Guitarists who want to capture the attention of the audience when playing solos will enjoy the sound created by the Whammy Ricochet.

A good quality PSU allows you to supply all of your pedals with the optimal voltage they require to function properly. The unit is connected to the pedal using power cables, and these can be left in place to save you time when you need to use your pedals. It has six modes: Dyna (Dynamic Pitch Shifters), Mod (Dual pitch-shifters), Rand (Dual pitch shifters with random modulation), Arpy (Arpeggiator), Ring (Dual pitch shift with tremolo modulation effects), and Cloud (Dual pitch-shift with Reverb). The CP-36 Pitch Shifter is a new pedal from Caline with a boatload of options which allow you to get practically any pitch or octave sound you're after. Great with single notes and chords alike. The wet and dry knobs allow you to blend the original signal vs the new harmonic signal. The detune mode on the selector ranges from -15 to +25 cents and again can be a subtle to "experimental" sounding effect depending on the settings. Takes a 9v power supply. Pitch shifter pedals are very similar to harmonizers, except these pedals don’t generally create harmonies in real-time. They usually add a pre-determined interval to the dry signal or cause fast shifts in pitch either upwards or downwards, as is the case with a Whammy pedal. My Review: Although this minute Mooer stompbox is predominantly an octave-shifter pedal, it also performs like a harmonizer in several ways. The first thing that caught my attention about this pedal was its simple, minimalistic design and control layouts.Who is this best suited for: The Beetronics Swarm pedal is a suitable choice for guitarists who are looking to add a unique flavor of the harmonizer effect to their signal chain. If you’re a fan of artificial-sounding fuzz, I think you’ll find this pedal very interesting indeed.
