VSN Guitar Harmonizer Effect Pedal Digital Octave Effects Pedals Harmony Pitch Shifter Detune For Electric Guitar Bass Mini Size True Bypass

This pedal is *reminiscent* of a Carbon Copy, but much smaller and a quarter of the price. It’s definitely got the analog delay sound: repeats grit up and degrade, messing with the delay time makes fun spaceship noises, and it goes into self-oscillation with the feedback turned up.The mod switch is a nice addition. Adds a bit of slow warble to the delays and sounds really cool. I haven’t opened it up to see if the LFO rate and depth can be adjusted.Only negative things are the absence of tap tempo and some sound quality things. The signal can get kinda “crispy” sounding if you play loud/hard. Not super audible in a live setting, but it becomes immediately noticeable in a recording session.Long story short: it’s a great budget delay pedal if you’re curious or want something small for bar gigs and practice. However, I’d save up and invest in something nicer if you plan to record with it.

At certain settings, it verges on being able to sound as if the notes are being played back in reverse but I am not interested in that. There really is no reason to purchase this pedal other than, on occasion, you want your guitar to sound like a bowed instrument. "Do I really want that? Will I use it?" For the price, this was something I was willing to answer. I fell in love with the effect instantly, and most people I show(off) to are equally impressed.In that regard, I got what I expected. But I also got much more...This effect will force you to play guitar differently. Very fast runs of notes generally don't sound pleasing through this pedal, so it forces you to slow down. As a result, I'm making better note choices, my vibrato is improved, and my solos are becoming more melodic. If you told me before I bought that I'd be a better player thanks to a pedal that makes my guitar sound like a violin, viola, or even cello, I would have said you are crazy. And I would have been wrong.My one complaint and the reason why I give only 4 stars is that you lose a significant amount of volume when the pedal is engaged. It seems to be a common characteristic as I've tried other brands and had the same outcome. I wish there was a volume control on the pedal that worked without affecting the effect.

I’m comparing this VSN Harmonizer and the Mooer Pitch Box to the Donner Harmonic Square. They’re all pitch shifter mini pedals but only the Donner is usable (i actually replaced my EHX Pico Pitchfork with the Donner which is $50 vs the Pitchfork’s $200.)The VSN and Mooer have extremely inaccurate pitch tuning on all intervals and close to slapback level latency. hilarious. The Pico Pitchfork has some very cool features but the sound is really weird and cold. I’m a jazz/blues/fusion/rock/whatevs player and use octaves with drive for lines, 5ths and 4ths for lines and some “synthy” chording over a static tonal center. The Donner sounds great clean or with varying degrees of drive. definitely worth the price.

I guess it just couldn’t handle the job. I liked the swells it was producing. Then all of a sudden it began doing multiple swells. Almost like a delay. Easy setup but didn’t last long.Edit: after a brief “rest”, it began working again. I bought another one just in case this one does it again.

This is a good sounding chorus effect for acoustic/electric or electric guitar. Small size is a plus.

Can't beat the pedal for the price. Although I can't say that a more expensive tuner works better or is more accurate, as I have never used one, this tuner works well and does what it is supposed to do.

IDK if I got a broken one, but I’ve read similar issues and I don’t think is the case.The unit I received is used. The box gives it away. And so does the fact that there was tape covering the LED and I can totally understand why. That thing can make you blind.It can create nice harmonies, and that hole it sounds very synthetic, it still blends nicely on a dirty channel. Now, on clean or crunch, the sound can get really bad.There is a noticeable delay that will throw off your playing. Only suitable, again, on high gain (red channel on a Marshall dual super lead, full gain and half volume)I didn’t fully test it, but it seems to really be a true bypass. My guess, with some kind of relay, both by the sound it makes and the fact that the switch can be used to store presets and shift modes. I don’t think it’s something doable without using the switch just to drive digital electronics.Now, what you were waiting for.Can it harmonize: yes. But I wouldn’t trust it to more than single notes. Still throws a delay that rarely sounds right. The produced sound is very synthesized, but not necessarily “bad” and sounds really cool on high gain.Does it suck tone: yes. A lot. Way more than a regular crybaby Wah. But when bypassed it gets completely transparent ( or transparent enough for my ears, YMMv) I played with its placement in the effect chain and with a compressor, in the input, or the Tx loop, but no matter what, all treble is gone as soon as this is turned on.* does it him: No. but I fed it with a nice isolated channel of a spot power source.* well below unity gain. I had to use a compressor to both blend the dry and wet better and to raise level/ act as a buffer. Just like for tone I played all over, but never found it usable on clean or low gain.-* you won’t ever have a doubt if it’s on. The LED can be seen from many yards away.*Didn’t play well with Solid state. (I didn’t bother with a fender valve amp, see below)Has potential, but sadly it will go back. I can’t have it in the chain without sucking all of the treble, except maybe putting it in the FX loop and using the FX loop bypass of a Marshall. I don’t have such option on my fender or my solid state amp, so it’s not very useful after all. I have a feeling that if it’s not broken, it has issues with impedance, but I’ll leave it up to the manufacturer.

The media could not be loaded. Gostei não testei ainda mais parece ser de qualidade.

Con este fuzz de silicón (de ahí el nombre S-FUZZ) se puede ir de limpio cristalino hasta el fuzz más pastoso tan sólo con el volumen de la guitarra. Es bastante silencioso (si no le subes al máximo, claro está). En mi caso, el punto perfecto es el fuzz casi al máximo. El switch es robusto, el pedal es de metal. Pero recomiendo que lo pongas al principio de la cadena (guitarra + fuzz + todo lo demás).

Hello,I just acquired this pedal and tried it.Even though its LED lights up, it won't change the signal in any way. I play on my amp and my pedal board with other pedals who work just fine. I tried isolating the pedal and see if it'd fix the problem, but the sound is exactly the same with the pedal on and off.I change the volume and this has effect but the central FUZZ parameter has no effect.Should I return the pedal?

Worked the first time, then sat in storage for a couple of months. Now it produces nothing but static noise with the guitar recording barely audible.

Tiene 2 meses que lo compré, lo he usado máximo 6 veces. Lo uso en casa para estudiar. El looper ya no sirve, no graba ni reproduce nada, intenté actualizarlo y el software no sirve. Pésimo aparato! Y no hay opción de garantía.
