- this has to be the least dsireable pitch shifter made by boss, for pitch shifting that is. if you put it in a feedback loop youll find long sequences of notes and chords. the words "organ from hell" might give you an idea of what it sounds like.
- Good Points: -wierd patterns of notes/chords in a feedback loop. -has an alright octave upper/downer or chorus settings.
- Bad Points: -intelligent pitch shifting doesnt track all that well.
- Price Paid: US$60.00
- Purchased At: from an online friend.

- Just like the previous reviewer...not much to expect out of this particular pedal...the effect is really subtle. There aren't a lot of really interesting features to even bother getting this pedal.
- Good Points: Does have two outputs..each voice has their own pitch settings.
- Bad Points: the effect doesn't seem very spectacular to even bother getting one.
- Price Paid: US$0.00

- Sorry to have to say it, but this is strictly a guitarist's pedal, I bought this thinking it would be similar to the PS-3, but was extremely disappointed. There are a couple of settings that give detuned and flanger-like effects, but better to buy a flanger and chorus pedal, you'll have more options. It will get you that -2 octave rumble as well, which might be enough for some, though at 0+ it should be able to more than two or three tricks. For that money you'd be better served searching out a used Ps-3.
- Good Points: Not many
- Bad Points: Limited usefulness
- Price Paid: US$120.00
