Hair Raising Dive Bomb Effects, Gripping Pitch Bends and Lightning Harmony Shifts The legendary Whammy pedal is the premier pitch-shifting pedal for any guitarist’s board, and it only gets better with time. In addition to the classic Whammy sound, we’ve added chordal Whammy pitch-shifting and true bypass. Whammy artists have won over 60 Grammys using its unique pitch-shifting sound to enhance their music. Its songs echo the hallways of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame® and generate acclaim on over 700 million albums around the world. There is no doubt why Whammy is one of the most common sights on guitarists’ pedalboards. The Whammy can bring new depth to your artistry. Turn your solo into raging, rebellious screams of tone or tame your crowd with highly expressive, ambient chordal bends. Energize your audience with a scratchy note frenzy, bring them in and out of the sound tunnel with musical bursts, or carry them through an existential exploration of full-fretboard pitch translation. The Whammy puts expression into the expression pedal. Don’t be the last guitarist without a Whammy! Whammy Effects: This group of effects will bend your incoming signal either up or down depending upon the effect setting you have chosen. As the Expression Pedal is rocked back and forth, the signal will bend from the original input pitch (toe up), to the pitch specified by the selected effect setting (toe down). 2 OCT UP – Bends your input note two octaves up.1 OCT UP – Bends your input note one octave up.5TH UP – Bends the input note 7 semitones (5th interval) up.4TH UP – Bends the input note 5 semitones (4th interval) up.2ND DN – Bends the input note 2 semitones (2nd interval) down.4TH DN – Bends the input note 5 semitones (4th interval) down.5TH DN – Bends the input note 7 semitones (5th interval) down.1 OCT DN – Bends your input note one octave down.2 OCT DN – Bends your input note two octaves down.DIVE BOMB – Bends your input note three octaves down. Harmony Effects: This group of effects add a harmony to your incoming signal. Both the harmony note and the input signal are mixed together as if two guitars were playing simultaneously. As you rock the pedal back and forth, the harmony note bends between two intervals specified by the selected effect setting, but the input signal remains unchanged. OCT DN/OCT UP – Bends the harmony between one octave below (toe up) and one octave above (toe down) the input note.5TH DN/4TH DN – Bends the harmony between a fifth (toe up) and a fourth (toe down) below the input note.4TH DN/3RD DN – Bends the harmony between a fourth (toe up) and a minor third (toe down) below the input note.5TH UP/7TH UP – Bends the harmony between a fifth (toe up) and a dominant seventh (toe down) above the input note.5TH UP/6TH UP – Bends the harmony between a fifth (toe up) and a sixth (toe down) above the input note.4TH UP/5TH UP – Bends the harmony between a fourth (toe up) and a fifth (toe down) above the input note.3RD UP/4TH UP – Bends the harmony between a third (toe up) and a fourth (toe down) above the input note.MIN 3RD UP/3RD UP – Bends the harmony between a minor third (toe up) and a major third (toe down) above the input note.2ND UP/3RD UP – Bends the harmony between a second (toe up) and a third (toe down) above the input note. Detune Effects: This group of effects create a copy of your input signal, shift the pitch of the copied signal, then mix it back with the original signal. As the Expression Pedal is rocked back and forth, the level of this detuned signal is changed. With the pedal in the toe up position, only the original dry signal is heard. As the pedal is rocked forward, more of the detuned signal is mixed with the dry signal. SHALLOW – The copied signal is slightly detuned from the original pitch.DEEP – The copied signal is substantially detuned from the original pitch. The Whammy features a MIDI input for receiving incoming MIDI data. MIDI messages can select a Whammy or Drop Tune effect and set whether these effects are in an active or bypassed state. MIDI CC messages can then be used to control the Whammy Expression Pedal position.
