You're most welcome! This 'Video Manual' series is really popular, so I should really do more of them. But they take a lot of research and planning, not to mention editing! The next one will be for the Boss SY-200. 👍

Thanks! I've been itching to get my hands on this. It completely wipes the floor with the Boss OC-5, imo. 😜

Honestly it's just because EHX doesn't hype up their pedals in the same way that every other company does, you know, giving freebies to reviewers and what not. I don't know if that's a fault of their marketing department or they're just trying to go against the grain.

Thanks! I'm glad you found it useful. 😊 EHX don't always explain the features of their pedals that well, so I do what I can to make video guides for some of their more obscure pedals, whenever I can.

Glad you liked it! I've got quite a few others, as well as many other playlists if you want to check them out. 👍 Thanks for the support!

Thanks! Glad you found it useful. 🙂👍

Wow, thank you! 😊

Many thanks! 😊 I'm glad you found it useful. I appreciate the support! 👍🏻

Thank you so much!

You're welcome! Glad you found it useful. 😊

@@PedalExperiments Can you use this as a Whammy DT? Have one voice set to lower the guitar tuning to D, and then pitch shift that signal with the other voice with the momentary mode? I'm wondering if I should go with this or a digitech drop + boss ps6

Hey! I think I spoke to you already on Reddit. I'm slap_me_thrice. If that wasn't you, then yes, it'll definitely work. Ha ha

You're most welcome. Glad you enjoyed it! 👍

Yes, you do! 😎

I've never tried the Micro POG, tbh. I've only had the original Pitchfork. However, I'd say the POG and the Pitchfork are based on the same algorithm, and I've compared those two over on our "Noise Merchants" channel, if you want to check that out?

Good question. I think I glossed over that part in the video, as it gets pretty complicated. But I tracked down the relevant part of the manual that deals with the Jump feature: JUMP. - Turn VALUE to choose a preset slot ranging from 1-100. When the USER footswitch is pressed, preset will jump to and load the selected slot if a valid preset is selected. Any number of presets can be chained together. These preset chains can then be closed to create a loop of presets that are cycled through with each press of the USER footswitch. With the USER mode button is set to JUMP, any number of presets can be chained together. To set up a JUMP preset chain: 1. Press the PRESET button and use the VALUE knob to select the preset that will start the preset chain. 2. Press the USER mode button and use VALUE to select JUMP. 3. Press VALUE to enter the JUMP sub-menu. 4. Turn VALUE to select the preset that the USER footswitch will jump to and load. 5. Press PRESET, then press and hold VALUE for 2 seconds to save the preset. Important: Skipping this step will cause the JUMP selection to revert to its previous value when the preset was loaded. You must save before pressing the USER footswitch in the following step. 6. Press the USER footswitch to jump to the next preset in the chain 7. Repeat Steps 2-6 to add more presets to the chain. 8. To close a jump preset chain loop, set the JUMP value for the preset at the end of the chain to JUMP back to first preset in the chain set in Step 1. NOTE: Skip this step if you do not wish to loop the chain. Hope you can make sense of all that?

I am no electronics expert and thus I'm not certain this will work, but I think you can mod/build a footswitch that will short the terminals of the TRS cable with a transistor that is controlled by a square wave oscillator. I will try this with my EHX 720 Looper and if it works I can build you one too.

@@eproxy812 Oh cool. Be interesting to hear what you find out

That's an interesting idea. I'm afraid I no longer have this pedal, so I can't test this theory out for you. If any pedal could create that effect though, this could!

Hey, thanks for watching! Hmmm, that's a really weird issue. 🤔 If the 'Dry' knob is turned down all the way to minimum, you shouldn't be hearing any of your guitar, only the pitch effect. I'd maybe reach out to EHX about it?

Thanks a lot! 🙏🏼

Negative, you can connect an aftermarket 3 button switch to control it though.

Good question. 🤔 I really can't remember tbh. I included a link in the description for the official manual, though. So I would recommend checking there.

That's a great application. I hadn't considered that use, but yeah you could totally do that if you wanted to! 👍

@@PedalExperiments that's a great application. Used this a lot with my old POG2.

This will do everything the POG2 can do, and a lot more besides! 😎👍

@@PedalExperiments ok, cool :) but, it got the same filter effect of the pog 2? Thanks!

@@dalidaspunton8901 I've never tried a POG2, so I'm afraid I'm not familiar with the "filter effect" you mean? But it uses the same algorithms and has a huge range of control, so I wouldn't be surprised if it could do everything you wanted it to do.

The Pitch Fork+ should be able to do that, tbh!

@@PedalExperiments Do you know how specifically? Because I don't see any function to shift the dry signal by default or shift the pitch in heel position. Could it be accomplished using the second pitch shift engine or does that only shift the dry signal (not the shifted signal)?

The dry signal can't be shifted. By definition, the dry signal is the un-effected sound of your guitar. You can however, set what pitch is at the heel position and what pitch is at the toe position. Then, you can dial in the volume knobs to either hear the 100% wet, pitch-shifted signal, or blend in your dry signal for a mix of both.

@@PedalExperiments Thank you do much that answered my question 😎

No problem! Happy to help. 👍

Exactly!

I am actually subscribing to your channel. Something I RARELY do. Thanks! Keep up the good work!

Hey, thanks for the positive comments! I appreciate feedback on all its forms, but it's always especially nice when it's good! Haha! 😄 Glad you enjoy my format. I wish I could claim to have invented it, but I'm one of many people to have copied the mighty 'Knobs' style of demoing. You should also check out 'Do Noise', 'A Bunch Of Pedals', and 'Pedal Of The Day'! 👍 Yes, I'll absolutely try and demo each of your pedals, if you can send me a pic via my Instagram, or just list them here?

Oh forgot to mention the audio quality! It sounds like a professional studio, not like you’re recording it in your bathroom on a 1985 JVC boom box. Kudos!

I’m a big UA fan so Astra, Golden Reverberator, Starlight Echo and Dream!

Also just picked up the Keeley Eccos.

Good questions! Q1: I don't think so, but you can easily set up the presets to achieve the same result. Q2: I'm honestly not sure about this one. I would recommend consulting the pdf manual linked in the description.

Thanks!

Yes, yes, and yes! 😁

I've never personally experienced any noise from either this, or the regular Pitch Fork. As long as they recieve proper, isolated power they shouldn't make any unwanted noises. If they do, the unit is probably faulty in which case EHX will repair it. 👍

This pedal has both minor 3rd and Major 3rd pitches. If you skip to about the 3:00 mark, you'll see a full list of the shift values the Pitchfork+ lets you access. Thanks!

@@PedalExperiments I think I’m grasping it, but you’re saying yes it does?

Indeed. 😎👍

Hmmm, sounds weird. 🤔 Are you supplying it with plenty of mA? Sometimes pedals can behave oddly if they don't get enough current. If it's not that, maybe try a factory reset?

@@PedalExperiments Ok. I’m using a pretty nice 8 isolated output power supply but I’ll plug it back in with the adapter it came with. I take it the reset is in the instructions. Thanks for the quick reply.

Just had a quick look, and I can't see anything about doing a reset for the whole pedal, but you can restore the factory loaded presets by holding the 'Preset' button while powering it up. The pedal requires at least 120mA of current, so I would make sure it's getting that before pursuing anything more drastic. Sorry I couldn't be more help!

@@PedalExperiments Nah man you’ve been very helpful. Thanks again.

There probably is a very slight latency, but if there is, I can't hear it! 😎👍

I never really noticed much latency with my original Pitch Fork, tbh. But the new essentially sounds the same, so if you didn't like the original, I really doubt you'd like the Plus. Check our "Noise Merchants" channel for a side-by-side comparison.

Thanks, but there's so much to show with this pedal, I decided to focus on demonstrating the functions and how to navigate them, than the sounds. There's a more in-depth demo of this pedal on our 'Noise Merchants' channel, if you want to check that out? Thanks for watching. 👍

I didn't think the latency was bad at all on the original, tbh. So I'm probably not the best person to ask. 😄 There's a comparison video between the Pitchfork and Pitchfork+ over on my other channel, "Noise Merchants", you might want to check out?

I have both the whammy and the pitchfork plus. The latency is more or less the same.

Also one thing I forgot! Unlike the whammy, there is no latency (or tone suck) on the dry signal for the pitchfork.

I agree. Really surprised they didn't include that functionality with this pedal, although I'm sure they had their reasons for why they didn't.

EHX pedals have always cut corners on MIDI...which is why I won't waste money on them...but this pedal may be an exception because it's the only multi-voice pitch shifter available...

Not sure what you're trying to say?

@@PedalExperiments Lol... I would take it as a compliment...

I forgive you. 😄 Could you elaborate on that, please?

@@PedalExperiments you didn't take the time to create something useful, like showing how these sounds can be used in an actual song. Playing random stuff is not gonna cut it.

I appreciate the feedback, however my goal wasn't trying to show how to use the effect within a song, I was trying to show how the pedal works. There are plenty of other people out there who demo pedals by simply using them to play a song, and that's great for getting an idea of how the pedal sounds before you buy it. But what I aim to do with my "Video Manual" videos is to give a more thorough breakdown of the controls and what all the buttons/parameters do, which takes a considerable amount of time to put together. So, I'm afraid I have to strongly disagree with your statement that I "didn't take the time to create something useful", as I invested many hours of reading, thinking, planning, filming, and editing, all so I could provide a completely free resource for anyone wanting to know how this pedal works. That was my sole intention and if only one person watching this actually found it useful, then I consider it all worth it.
