Intelligent Pitch Shifting (IPS)
Intelligent Pitch Shifting makes a copy of the incoming signal,and then changes the pitch of the copied
note to a diatonically correct interval specified by the Amount parameter. An Intelligent Pitch Shifter
sharpens or flattens the shifted pitch in order to keep the specified interval within the selected key
and scale creating a true harmony.
Parameter 1 - Knob 2 selects the Amount or harmony interval for the Intelligent Pitch Shifter.
Interval choices include:
Parameter 2 - Knob 3 selects the scale the IPS will use. Scale choices include: Major (MAJOR),
Minor (
MINOR),Dorian (DORIAN), Mixolydian (MIXoLYDn),Lydian (LYDIAN),
Harmonic Minor (
HARMINor).
Parameter 3 - Knob 4 selects the musical key the IPS uses. Key choices range from the Key of E
(
KEY E) through the Key of Eb (KEY Eb).
Level - Knob 5 adjusts the IPS Level (
IPS LEVL) of all the pitch-altering effects in this module.
Ranges from
0 to 99.
Detune
A Detuner makes a copy of your incoming signal, takes the copied signal slightly out of tune from the
original,and mixes the two signals together. The result is a doubling type of effect as if two guitars
were playing the same part together.
Parameter 1 - Knob 2 selects the Amount (
AMouNT) of detuning applied to the copied pitch in
cents (100 cents equals 1 semitone). Ranges are from 24 cents below (-24) to 24
cents above (24).
Knob 3 and Knob 4 have no function when Detune is selected.
Level - Knob 5 adjusts the Detune Level (
dtn LeVL) of all pitch-altering effects in this module.
Ranges from 0 to 99.
Pitch Shift
A Pitch Shifter copies the incoming signal,then shifts the pitch of the copied note to a different note.
The shifted note is then mixed back with the original signal sounding as if two guitars were playing
parallel notes.
Parameter 1 - Knob 2 selects the Shift (
SHIFT) of the pitch in semitone intervals. Ranges from
two octaves below (
-24) to two octaves above (24).
Knob 3 and Knob 4 have no function when Pitch Shift is selected.
Level - Knob 5 adjusts the Pitch Level (
pch LeVL) of all pitch-altering effects in this module.
Ranges from
0 to 99.
Talker
™
The Talker is an effect that lets your instrument’s signal be manipulated by your voice. The Talker
requires a microphone be connected to the Mic Input on the rear panel of the GNX4. As you speak
into the microphone, your instrument mimics what you say. There are five Talker types.
OCT DowN (octave down)
7TH DowN (a seventh below)
6tH DowN (a sixth below)
5tH DowN (a fifth below)
4tH DowN (a fourth below)
3RD DowN (a third below)
2ND DowN (a second below)
2ND UP (a second above)
3RD UP (a third above)
4TH UP (a fourth above)
5TH UP (a fifth above)
6TH UP (a sixth above)
7TH UP (a seventh above)
OCT UP (an octave above)
