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.

Shift - Knob 2 selects the amount or harmony interval for the Intelligent Pitch Shifter. Interval choices include:

OCT Dn

(octave down)

2ND UP (a second above)

7TH Dn

(a seventh below)

3RD UP (a third above)

6tH Dn

(a sixth below)

4TH UP (a fourth above)

5tH Dn

(a fifth below)

5TH UP (a fifth above)

4tH Dn

(a fourth below)

6TH UP (a sixth above)

3RD Dn

(a third below)

7TH UP (a seventh above)

2ND Dn

(a second below)

OCT UP (an octave above)

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).
