PITCH SHIFT

Pitch Shifting is used to change the pitch of the input signal to produce one to four harmony notes based on a single

input signal. The

Hush; Pitch Shift; Delay configuration offers 4 harmony voices while the Hush; Pitch Shift; Delay; Reverb

configuration offers 2. Each harmony voice may be of any fixed interval - from to one octave above the input signal to two
octaves below—and is selected in 20 cent increments. Increments of one cent (1/100th of a semitone) are also available for
fine adjustment via the Fine parameter.

PITCH SHIFT PARAMETERS

Pitch

The

Pitch parameter determines the harmony note the Intellifex Online will

produce based on the input note. An interval is the distance in semitones
between the pitches of two musical tones (i.e. the distance from an A note
to a C note is considered a minor third interval, this equals 3 half-steps or
300 cents). The Pitch parameter is adjustable in 20 cent increments and
any interval may be selected from one octave above to two octaves below
the input signal. This parameter is adjustable from -2400 cents to +1200
cents—where -2400 is 2 octaves below the input signal, 0 is unison and
+1200 is one octave above the input signal. Each 100 cents (or 5 - 20 cent
steps) above or below 0 represents the amount of half-steps (or semitones)
the harmony note will be above or below the input signal.

Fine

The

Fine parameter allows for fine adjustment of pitch change in 1 cent

steps (or 1/100th of a semitone) for finer adjustment of the harmony note.

Level

The

Level parameter determines the volume of each voice relative to the

other voices of the effect. (This is not the same as the Pitch Shift Level
parameter found in the Mixer Function parameter list.)

Pan

This parameter allows you to pan the shifted note to the left or right channel
of the Intellifex Online. It is adjustable from 0 to 100, where 0 is full left, 100
is full right and 50 is center.

Delay

This parameter allows for the shifted signal to be delayed up to 418mS
following the input signal. It is adjustable from 0 to 418mS in 2mS incre-
ments.
