Devious Machines releases Pitch Monster, Extreme Pitch Shifter

Devious Machines has released Pitch Monster, a 6-octave, 64-voice pitch shifter.

Pitch Monster features six octaves of operation, a resolution of 0.01 semitones, and unison spread of pitch and time (up to 64 voices). Three shift types – Granular, Formant and Vocoder – bring three flavours of operation for experimental sound design work, while Pitch Monster's MIDI control and Chord Mode allow a user to play it like an instrument.

Pitch Monster Features:

• Harmonise with up to 8 voices of polyphony.
• Six-octave range (two up, four down).
• Dial in eight voices of unison for a 64 voice stack.
• Granular, Formant-shifting and Vocoder engines.
• Realtime MIDI control.
• Programmable Chord Memory with switching via MIDI.
• Dual high + low pass filters for fine tonal control.
• Wide mode for big stereo effects.
• Responsive, low-latency DSP engine suitable for live and studio use.

Pitch Monster Lets You:

• Perform large bends and pitchsweeps.
• Absolutely transform an input signal with extreme tonal shifts.
• Harmonize any sound with up to eight notes or use as an octaver.
• Apply modulation effects like flanging, chorusing and subtle widening.
