The world’s first intelligent pitch shifter in a compact pedal, the HR-2 lets you select any suitable key from 12 Key Modes like major and minor in each semitone. This instantly adds correct 2-voice harmony to a guitar phrase. A new high-speed detection circuit ensures lightning fast response to speed picking passages. A Detector In jack allows correct pitch detection when combined with other effects.
Using the HR-2
For a twin lead sound: To sound just like two guitarists playing the same phrase, set only Voice A to +3. (Fig. 1: E.Level A 10, E.Level B 0, Voice A -3, Voice B -, Key -)
Guitar orchestration: Try setting Voice A to +4 and Voice B to +3 to create very impressive guitar orchestration by layering a two-voice harmony on top of the original guitar signal. (Fig. 2: E.Level A 8, E.Level B 8, Voice A -4, Voice B +3, Key -)
Detune sound: With both Voice A and Voice B set to Detune, the direct sound is overlapped with slightly pitch-shifted sound for a thick, chorus effect. (Fig. 1: E.Level A 5, E.Level B 5, Voice A DT, Voice B DT, Key -)
