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.

Key - Knob 3 selects the musical key that the IPS uses. Key choices range from the Key of E (KEY E) through the Key of Eb (KEY E∫).

Scale - Knob 4 selects the scale the IPS will use. Scale choices include: Major (MAJOR), Minor (MINOR), Dorian (DORIAN), Mixolydian (MIXLYd), Lydian (LYDIAN), and Harmonic Minor (HMINor).
