Digitech The Drop - Polyphonic Drop Tune Pedal
The DigiTech Drop Polyphonic Drop Tune Pedal is a well of tunings, offering you the ability to drop tune your guitar without having to touch the strings. This nifty little box of low end madness has the power to transform your sound. Whether you just want to drop down a semitone for a slightly deeper voice, or you want to take your tuning right to the depths of the earth by dropping it a full octave, you can do so.
Built for the stage, this robust drop tune pedal has all the characteristics of an expertly designed creation. Tired of dragging your gaggle of guitars to live shows? The DigiTech Drop eliminates the need to do so by allowing you to access virtually any drop tuning you want, meaning one guitar should be more than enough for any performance. With intuitive controls and a standout design, it will be the centrepiece of your pedalboard.
This pedal was born to bring you convenience, with a wealth of drop tuning options for you to explore. It works in semitones, allowing you to lower your tuning by between one semitone and an octave when you press the switch. This means you could go from drop D to drop D an octave lower instantaneously.
It adds a wealth of options to your tonal range, allowing you to access those deeper, darker tones. When added into your songs, you'll be able to introduce a different dynamic, introducing more voicings to your riffs and making them truly shine. It's a life saver.
The best pedals are often the simplest. With the Drop Polyphonic on your pedalboard, you'll find it easy to dial in your ideal sound. That's because it has a super simple interface, with just two controls for pure ease of use. The effect selector dial allows you to select how many semitones you want to drop your tuning by. There's also an OCT+DRY setting, which drops your tuning an octave whilst mixing in your dry signal. This means you can create a huge, wide ranging voicing which sounds like two guitars. The on/off switch also lets you choose whether the tuning drop happens momentarily, as you’re pressing the footswitch, or is on all the time. This means you can use it as both a quirky pitch shift effect as well as the foundation of your main guitar tone.
