http://morpheusefxsite.abff.stackablehost.com/droptune.phpNow, these things seem to divide peeps..
there's bad rep for them on TGP, HC and RT. Mostly from people who're repeating what they've been told and never played one.. I have on multiple occasions, just never got round to buying one.
The bad rep is this, they sound warbley and processed, there's high latency etc etc.
This is true, but and this is a big but, it only occurs AFTER a drop of more than 2 tones, most of the people bitching are , as stated, the hearsay crowd or, people who want it to work at the extremes of it's capabilities, like those who want to have standard tuning and drop down to A.
Here's the important part, for someone who likes to keep their guitars in standard (me, like the feel, drop tunings haven't worked for me in a long time) and are only looking to drop a 1/2 or full step for the odd song, they are perfect. they sound awesome. they do not sound processed, there is no latency, none of the above problems at this level.
works good for chords as well as single notes
Unfortunately the dude who owns the company died and they seem to be out of production, the website is dark if you try to access from google, i believe the link is a cached page or summat. I had to phone 8 different shops today to get one of these, and those 8 where the ones showing stock. there were a multitude of other google hits for shops saying no longer available..
not everyones cup of tea, but i think its a great pedal and i'm 100% chuffed to have nabbed one of the last new ones. and the shop i got it from was doing it £15 cheaper than everywhere else
