smacar01 Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 I was wondering if the Amplifi-TT has the flexibility to model alternative tuning like Drop D (D A D G B E), or 1/2 down or open A, etc. I believe one of the presets is an octave down.

silverhead Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 No, there’s no alternate tuning capability that addresses individual strings, like Variax. There are certain FX blocks that adjust the pitch of the entire signal but they don’t recognize individual notes and they are monophonic. That means they work best on single notes rather than chords. For instance, you can simulate a bass guitar by using a pitch shifter FX to lower the pitch of the incoming signal by an octave. Then you can play a bass part using individual notes and it can sound like a bass guitar. You can use it to drop everything a semi-tone, for instance, and play chords. It will sound something like detuning your guitar to Eb but the monophonic nature of the FX introduces artifacts that I believe most players find intolerable.

smacar01 Posted January 19, 2023 Author Share Posted January 19, 2023 How do you drop tune it? I'd like to try that out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Use the Double Bass FX block. I assume you know the basics of tone creation and editing using the Amplifi TT. If not, consult the manual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
