DigiTech Drop Polyphonic Drop Tune Pitch-Shifter Guitar Effects Pedal

The Drop polyphonic drop tune pitch-shifter guitar effects pedal from DigiTech is a revolutionary pedal that provides guitarists an innovative way to drop their tuning without actually adjusting their guitar’s tuning pegs. The Drop uses an advanced polyphonic drop tune algorithm to allow players to drop their pitch from one semitone all the way down to a full octave. You can now achieve a lower, chunkier tone instantly at the stomp of a footswitch instead of having to tune down between songs.

Drop Your Pitch, Not Your Action

With the Drop, you no longer have to sacrifice playability and string tension for lower tunings. The Drop provides drop tune settings from 1 to 7 semitones (half steps) down plus additional settings for one octave down with or without the dry signal. This allows for dropped tunings as low as Drop C or even Drop A without installing heavier gauge strings that can make playing more difficult. The Drop uses an advanced pitch detection algorithm to provide polyphonic drop tuning for all six strings at once while preserving the original guitar tone as much as possible.

Performance Pedal Capabilities

In addition to standard latching operation, The Drop also features a mini toggle switch to select either latching or momentary mode. In momentary mode, the footswitch acts as a “tap” switch, enabling the drop tune effect only while the footswitch is pressed. This performance pedal-like functionality allows for trills, pitch dips and other effects not possible with a standard latching footswitch. Creative guitarists can utilize the Drop’s momentary mode and expression pedal input for even more innovative pitch modulations and effects.

High-Quality Design

The Drop was designed with your needs in mind, from its intuitive user interface to its high quality components. The Drop features an easy to read LED display, knobs for effect level and selector and rugged metal footswitches and chassis. It also includes true bypass circuitry to maintain signal integrity and tone when the effect is not engaged. For power, the Drop requires a 9V DC power supply, which is included.
