It has been painstakingly tweaked to preserve the natural timbre and sound of electric and acoustic string instruments, including baritone and bass guitars, guitars, mandolins, banjos, etc.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe unique spring-loaded foot-pedal design makes it possible to incorporate pitch-shifting into your playing in new and creative ways. The BIGSBY pedal is always “on” – the only thing you need to do to activate it is to step on the foot-pedal. The algorithm ensures that transitions between the DRY and WET (pitched) signals are as smooth as possible, allowing you to seamlessly incorporate pitch-bends into complex picking patterns as well as lead and melodic lines. This opens the door to a world of new strumming patterns, bend combinations and beautiful lap-steel and slide-inspired licks that cannot be achieved with traditional tremolo systems.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother key component of the BIGSBY Pedal’s sound is the DETUNE parameter, another carefully crafted algorithm that is designed to emulate the imperfections and dissonant properties of traditional mechanical string-bending hardware. As a result, the vibrato effects produced by the BIGSBY Pedal are almost indistinguishable from those of a conventional tremolo arm. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BIGSBY Pedal combines the tremolo arm pitch-bend emulation with a unique set of features and modes that can take this pedal much further than simple pitch bend. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe AUTO mode enables an LFO that controls the pitch while the foot-pedal controls the depth. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BLEND control allows for dynamic chorus and harmonizer sounds. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe external footswitch input makes it possible to use the pedal in latching mode for typical pitch-shifter, octave, detune and chorus functionalities. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe expression output gives the pedal control over other audio gear, either in conjunction with or separately from pitch-shifting. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFull MIDI CC and PC control over all parameters, preset recalling, and clock syncing.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFEATURES \/ BULLET POINTS\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ePolyphonic pitch shifting and a reproduction of the BIGSBY tremolo arm string-bending and vibrato effects.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA spring-loaded rocking foot-pedal for upwards and downwards pitch-bending movements.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHigh-quality buffered bypass and seamless transitions into and out of bypass.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMulti-fuction LED-lit knobs.
