SHIFT

PITCH SHIFT

The whole thing moved in semitones

What it does

The whole thing moved in semitones, an octave each way, with a MIX to blend the shifted and the straight. A fifth up at half mix is a harmony; an octave down at full mix is a new bass.

  • +12 at MIX 0.3 is a shimmer
  • On a drum channel, -5 makes the kit sound like a bigger kit
ON THE TOUCH PAD

As SHIFT: X is SEMIS, Y is MIX. Touch to engage, lift to let go, HOLD to keep it.

Where it goes

PADSINSTRUMENTSCHANNELSBUSESMASTER

Four to a socket, in order: sound runs through the slots top to bottom. Open the box and every knob is in real units; BYPASS takes it out of the path without losing its settings; the presets are along the top; any knob learns a controller and gets an automation lane.

The presets

8 IN THE BANK

Every box ships with a bank. AS SET is the knobs as you left them; the rest are starting points, each a sound someone wanted often enough to name. Star one and it sits at the front of the bank.

The console line

Every box is also a line of the console's language, so a pad or a patch can carry its effects in text. The words are the knobs:
