Which Behringer pitch shifter is it? I needs some pitchshifting since I sold my Whammy.

I wanna A/B this with my Boss PS-5.. it's so tempting to buy Behringers knockoffs and sell off the proper versions at a profit.

aye, that's the one. about £30 from thomann a while back. i've never tried a PS-5, but for the price the behringer is awesome. and with another pitch shifter (e.g. pog/ps-5) you can do some crazy +1 octave, -1 octave sounds that are just weird...

i have one too

love it but i threw it off my guitarboard (it's on a 'side' board now, like when i feel like having a side dish haha)
but it's great, i did a shitty demo of it

i keep toying with pitch shifters, i like the micro pog a lot. derbyshire has a drought of guitar shops that stock half decent gear. it's normally boss or nothing.

the tracking on the pog is superb - only downside is that they're fcking expensive.. worth it though. the local music shop back at my parents house (worcestershire) sounds typical of derbyshire - we were lucky to get mexican fenders (they now seem to just stock indie and vintage/jhs...) and most effects were korg pandoras or black ibanez things (remember those?)...

very old pic - the small stone and big muff have been replaced by a nano small stone and tonefactor huckleberry fuzz to save space and wall-warts (daisy chained barrel plug versus ehx mini-jack style). There was an sd-1 on there at one point, but the guv'nor has since been fixed and is back on. Also now has the salt boost, a boss GE-7, and behringer green pitch-shifter thing (which is awesome) - so it's now a one-on-one-off policy since I have no more room!!

thanks ben, it's quite a nice board. i know what you mean about space. i went from a big pedal board to a small one and kinda wish sometimes i had something a little bigger.


i want santa to bring me vintage pedals arrghhhh!!!!!!!!!!! :lol:

Fuckyeah.

I'm a sucker for natural/maple/black PG on anything.
If I bought one of those squier duo's I'd have to change the PG to black 'cause the finish is a woody colour and the maple neck.

yeah, i'm on my second. the switches break easily if you get a bit rowdy on them too often. they're ok for trashy little pedals, you can pick them up for £10-20. they are what they are though, cheapo!
