Wah/Pitch; Wahwah; Pitch; Detune - DigiTech RP 2000 User Manual

Wah/Pitch

The Wah/Pitch column in the RP2000 is a multi-function module, allowing you to select your choice of
classic Wahs, Pitch Shifting, Detuning,Whammy™, or Intelligent Harmonies. Only one effect from this
column can be used at a time. After choosing the type of effect from this module, you can then adjust
the individual parameters of the selected effect.
This Parameter is used to program the on/off status of the Wah/Pitch module.The on/off status of these
effects can also be switched using the V-Switch. Engaging the V-Switch will enable the Wah/Pitch module,
and over ride the Expression Pedal assignment making the Expression Pedal act as a Wah,Whammy™.
Upon disengaging this switch, the Expression Pedal will revert back to controlling the assigned Parameter
for the current Preset. See page 29 and 31 for information on the Expression Pedal, and the V-Switch.
This Parameter allows you to select the specific type of effect from this group.The Types available include:
crywah (a traditional sounding Wah), fulwah (a full range Wah), Pitch (Pitch Shifting), Detune
(Detuning), Whammy (Pitch Bending), and Harmony (Intelligent Harmonies).The following list describes
each of these Effects and their associated Parameters in detail.
Wah Wah
Wah Wah is an effect that is controlled by the Expression Pedal and adds a fixed gain increase to a narrow
band of frequencies.The frequency changes as the Pedal is rocked back and forth resulting in the guitar
sounding as if it is saying Wah.The RP2000 includes two types of Wah to choose from: CryWah (CryWah)
and FulWah (Full Range Wah). Cry is a traditional sounding Wah typical of those used in the 60's and 70's.
Full Range Wah is a wider sweeping Wah with a more modern sound.The only Parameter available with the
Wah settings is the Pre/Post Parameter. See page 15 for more information on the Pre/Post Parameter.

Pitch

Pitch Shifting is an effect which makes a copy of your incoming signal, and then shifts the pitch of the copy
to a different note. As you play one note the Pitch Shifter is simultaneously playing a note higher, or lower
with you.The Pitch Shifting in this module is best when used with single notes.
The Amount Parameter adjusts the interval of the shifted note, Ranges from shf -24 (two
octaves below), to shf +24 (two octaves above), in 1 semi-tone steps.

Detune

A Detuner makes a copy of your incoming signal, takes the copied signal slightly out of tune from the
original, and mixes the two signals together.The result is doubling as if two guitars were playing together.
The Amount adjusts the extent that the Detuner will take the copied signal out of tune.This is
measured in cents (there are 100 cents to one semi-tone). Ranges from -30 cents (1/3 of a
semitone below) to +30 cents (1/3 of a semitone above), and is adjustable in 1 cent intervals.

Whammy™

Whammy™ is an effect that can bend the pitch of the incoming signal, or mix a harmony with the original
signal and bend the pitch of the harmony.The Whammy™ requires the use of the Expression Pedal. As you
rock the pedal forward, the note will bend either up or down at intervals you have selected.
The Amount selects the range and direction of the pitch bend.The Whammy™ Amounts
include:
Whammy (no Dry Signal)
1octup (1 octave above)
2octup (2 octaves above)
2nddwn (a second below)
rev2nd (a second below reversed pedal action)
4thdwn (a fourth below)
1octdwn (an octave below)
2octdwn (2 octaves below)
6octdwn (6 octaves below)
