I have the original Pitch Fork on my board. It is AMAZING for harmonies, and it REALLY makes my shimmer reverb come to life. For guitar, I have it set to pitch DOWN, either as a perfect 5th chord, or octave down. For bass, I do the opposite. Set it to pitch UP, either as a perfect 5th chord, or octave up. As for the blend knob, set that to 25%. Your shimmer reverb will thank you.

Totally agree. The magic (for guitar) is somewhere on the down pitch, high pitch should be half less in the overall signal, just to clear a bit the muddyness. But with the PF+, we can do that simultaneously. We'll have it mid february in Europe. Can't wait. And the good news is: with the "old" one and the PF+, it makes 3 pitches running in series. Some crazy stuff should come out :p) And by the way, you indeed have to lower the mix to get all chords sound ok, but it's an amazing pedal. Never play cleans without it for a long time.

@@ThatBaritoneGuitarGuy I'll do some experiments in february with the 3 pitches. Should be funny. If someone from EHX ever read this line: is there a way to filter low ends (for the Pitch Fork +V2), to avoid pitching (too hard) low E and A strings? Gets even worse on 7/8 string instruments. Often you let go a setting only because of the bass strings, although strings D to high E sound interesting. EDIT : thinking about it, a high pass filter could be usefull too, to tame the high E string "harsh" on +12 or +24 settings. Just saying. Thanks

I've used Pitch Fork for quite a few years. It might be for the "wrong" reason but I use it to transpose my locked-in Schecter for quick tuning drops. I was hoping maybe the PF+ would color the tone less. The volume knob might be a good improvement as the original PF not only colored the tone but amped it up quite a bit. I like the versatility of PF compared to DigiTech's DROP, but maybe there is a better option for what I use it for?

Hey Bill, have you tried any of the hexaphonic pickup setups. I am running the RMC piezo setup on a Strat using the VG-99 and GP-10 pedals. There are no artifacts whatsoever when pitchshifting and almost no latency. I mainly use them for flawless alternate tunings cuz you can program each string independently to whatever note you want and intelligent harmonizing as you can set the scales and it plays the correct notes. You can even split the fretboard to have multiple instruments string specific. If you haven't tried it I strongly suggest you do.

With my new pedalboard assembled, I am in the market for a pitch shifter that can give me two separate pitch shifts in stereo, with one routed to each channel, plus the dry in both. Primarily, I’d be using a slight detune pitch shift for a chorus-like effect, less the modulation, and shifted up a perfect 5th for playing leads. Expression pedal use would be a plus, but not essential. Smaller size and less weight would be a plus too, because my large pedalboard is looking like it might be a back breaker if I populate it full of the heaviest pedals. So between these two pedals, any recommendations for my needs. Low noise is important too. I’ll do strength training before hauling noisy pedals around.

Got a dumb question for you. What kind of FX can you get when you plug your original Pitchfork into your Pitchfork Plus? I'm actually a bass player and use the original pitchfork with a Tech 21 California to make my bass sound like an electric guitar. I'm thinking about getting the Pitchfor Plus so I can split my signal so as to play guitar and bass at the same time using the fifth setting on one pedal and playing down one octave on the other. I'm also planning to use my original pitchfork as a dedicated whammy while plugged into the Pitchfork Plus. If you could experiment with both pedals together, that would be amazing!

With such a great ear it really surprises me that the pitchfork is your go to shifter. I’ve played them all and Digitech’s Whammy-specifically Bass Whammy in Chord Mode-is BY FAR the most natural sounding. It isn’t even close if you’re after a natural sounding shift. The pitchfork sounds like a synth organ or something. The Whammy sounds like a guitar/bass. I’ve gotten my Jazz Bass to sound like a Tele with it. And it tracks perfectly. Just my 2 cents.

"I still like the original sound better." ... Oh for crying out loud. Both pedals are made by the same company and I'm pretty sure use the exact same algorithm. There should be no sound difference. I also own the original, but don't use it for guitar. I use it with synths. The bandwidth of the pedal is really low, so it's not hi-fi. It uses lots of closely spaced overlapping windows so it smears out sharp transients mushing up the sound. It's not quality pitch shifting at all.

The main thing about pitch shift pedals is tracking even if you're playing like Yngve Malmstein. The Boss OC-2 greatly failed at that while the TC subnup focused on that in the design. The Brainwaves sounds great. Does the pitchfork track as well as the subnup? The pitch fork plus has a slight and I mean slight volume drop with a very almost unnoticeable shadow over the tone. Not enough to maybe consider unless you're a tweak nerd.

I'm under the impression the Hedra only wants a monophonic input. So it's not really a replacement if you need to pitch shift polyphonic material.

For me comes down to real estate. The plus takes up more pedalboard space which I need. Its a never ending process setting up your pedalboard 😩

Maybe if you could do the test with acoustic guitar, purity difference might be more obvious

I got a great deal on the Pitchfork +, so my comment might not be as unbiased. I don’t hear much difference. I love my new/used Pitchfork +

I don't think EHX will be the ones to improve it,- betting on Walrus, who are killing it, with digital and analog.

Irrelevant, as both have terrible buffers that suck tone. Why aren't they true bypass ffs? I'd use the pitchfork as a bass emulator but the tone loss was one of the worst in any pedal I've ever tried, plus a hissing noise when bypassed.

I feel the PF+ a little bit darker. If we take only sound, i would buy the PF, but the plus has more knobs to play. I just bought a SLAMMI PLUS, could you make a review of this, will be very helpful to me i think 😁? I like your playing and attitude 🤘🤘🤘🤘
