Meris has unveiled the Hedra 3-Voice Rhythmic Pitch Shifter. Yes, the title is a mouthful, but what it essentially does is send guitar (and line level) tone into parallel, pitch shifted universes.

Send your guitar tone into echoey dreamscapes. The Hedra 3-Voice Rhythmic Pitch Shifter from Meris can create a symphony from a single source.

Here’s how the makers themselves sum up the new pedal:

“You can keep it simple and just use Hedra as a standard chromatic pitch-shifter. Or you can begin to pile on the intervals and slip into its dancing diatonic dreamscapes, via its 6 different scales and wealth of rhythmical subdivisions.”

In short, it’s a pitch-shifting delay unit, but with a depth of control that puts it in a league of its own.

Dialling in any of the 12 diatonic keys, or the chromatic scale is possible. Then there 4 different delay line configurations to explore, plus soundshaping effects like glide mode, micro tune and auto swell.
