I seemed to handle low E ok but was just too irritating to keep running to really check it out.

But it isn't designed to just push a button to get it. Plus it's huge.
I love mine, though.  |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2008 Location: New Orleans, LA | | | Yeah, it just frustrates me - I really wanted one and I'm glad I own it, but I find myself lamenting the lack of a minor 3rd slider. That and the weird chirpy thing that it does when using the 3rd and 4th octaves and/or making anything more complex than a power chord really chap my tookus. |

| | | | okay so the hog is a great octaver but is very limited as a pitch shifter
anyone had any more experience with the shifters mentioned?

YMMV. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Santa Cruz CA | | | the hog is great- but i wouldnt suggest it if pitch-shifting is a big part of what youre after. i got a ps-3 to compensate- and can vouch for the combination of the two- but if you want a single unit for harmony/shifting- i would recommend neither. |

To all - sorry for the derail. |

| | | | well i don't think they were disrespectful
i didn't feel hurt by it and i hope he doesn't either
all I was doing was questioning his statement of if I should change my sig on not. I honestly wasn't sure but I had a hunch i wasn't breaking any rules
so i honestly asked if he could show me a rule i was breaking, I would change it
sorry if it came off sarcastic or anything to anyone
