Product details
The pitch-shifter consists of three separate algorithms: a «vintage» mode (the original Discord algorithm, modeled on the Eventide H910 and H949), a «clean» mode for more modern shifting sounds, and a «granular» mode for experimental effects. Each mode has its strengths, depending on the input material, and Discord3 has a broad palette of capabilities as a result. The P1 and P2 algorithms have full control over the buffer (window) size of the shift effect, for fine tuning the shift to the input signal, or for stranger sound effects. At the extremes of the six-octave shift range, some truly strange aliasing and artifacts can be had with this control.
