Electro Harmonix Pitch Fork

[kevindahl]

Hey all, has anybody used this pedal for tuning down. For example our cover band plays some songs that are in Eb or D standard tuning. Since we only play in E standard, we have to perform the song in a higher key than the original recording. This ultimately is more difficult vocally.

I don't play a 5 string and we don't want to change our E standard tuning of the instruments.

How does this pedal track, is it noticeable? I have seen videos(on guitar only) but I would like hear from TB if anyone is actually using it live. The main purpose is not to harmonize but to tune down a 1/2 and/or whole step.

I found it to have a bit of latency that bothered me, but I was using it to tune down a 4th so my EADG would be BEAD. I don't know if the tracking would be better if you're only going down a half or whole step. I sold mine so I can't try it for you, sorry.
