stanwas 0 Posted December 12, 2017 Is it possible to transpose/downtune in Helix? Kind of like in the case of Digitech Drop. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Digital_Igloo 1,107 Posted December 12, 2017 DigiTech's Drop does polyphonic pitch shifting, which Helix doesn't currently have. Try assigning a Pitch/Synth > Simple Pitch block to a momentary footswitch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jbuhajla 326 Posted December 13, 2017 Like DI says though, the simple pitch block is not polyphonic just so you are aware. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps the most enlightening portion of DI's post is what I have emphasized in Bold Italics. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cruisinon2 2,595 Posted December 13, 2017 Lol...Good afternoon, folks! I'd like to welcome you all to another episode of "Damned If You Do, Damned If You Don't"...;) I eagerly await the wild speculation about a forthcoming (?) polyphonic pitch-shifter which is sure to follow...

jbuhajla 326 Posted December 13, 2017 TC Electronic Polytune has a polyphonic tuner, just saying... If we are going to speculate, might as well start a crap storm. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MusicLaw 208 Posted December 13, 2017 DI typically selects his words carefully. Nonetheless, he has been known to fan the fire. Polyphonic Helix capabilities have been a frequent request on IdeaScale and have been mentioned in plenty of discussions on the various Helix forums. Time will tell. In the meanwhile (before 2.4 or 3.0 arrive), why not be optimistic? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hideout 191 Posted December 14, 2017 I wonder if Line6 would prefer to develop their own tech for pitch detection tech or license one from these guys. https://ivlaudio.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jbuhajla 326 Posted December 14, 2017 Helix also doesn't currently have cappuccino machine. :D Well that's bullcrap. Nice to know that you pretty much just hate all your customers. We know Ben Adrian could model one in about 4 days. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MusicLaw 208 Posted December 15, 2017 Nice cover DI! :) Ah, yes! With the nearly endless adjectives describing sounds tones, who is to say that nobody has ever depicted what they are trying to get tone wise out of a Helix Preset configuration is as smooth, rich, robust, and almost a coffee-like creamy cappucino/latte tone. ;) I'm comfortable letting my optimism persist, to see what Helix 2018 brings....

Ichil 5 Posted December 15, 2017 I said Helix doesn't currently have a cappuccino machine. Do you mind implementing a switch to select Italian cappuccino? :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

karlic 9 Posted April 30, 2020 Pitch Whammy does fine on single note riffs, but sadly you need The Drop in a loop for chords. I do have one, but then you need to adjust The Drop for different intervals and it is a pain to remember at a show. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
