Product Information


Mind-blowing modulations!

The Boss PS-5 Shifter Pedal does what no other compact pedal has done before: shifting (basic or intelligent), harmonies, de-tuning, and a variety of whammy-type tremolo arm effects. Simple knob-based controls. Can be used with an optional expression pedal to shift pitch in real time.

Versitile little tool

The Boss PS-5 is packed with pretty much any pitch shifting effect you might need, including harmonies, wah, and extra vibrato. It's also easy to pitch shift down 1/2 to 1 step if you don't feel like re-tuning your guitar between songs. I find some use for it in nearly every song my band plays, even if it's just for a subtle vibrato kick or a slight harmony to fill out the sound. Be aware that like all pitch shifters it adds a metallic ring when taken above the smallest increments, similar to the opening of My Iron Lung.

Upshift

This pedal is a must have. Its' features include not only pitch shift +/- 2 octaves but a tremolo function as well. Couple this pedal with a gnarly distortion pedal(s), and you can create some gut bucket sounds. Well done Boss. Well done indeed.

Shift it up!

If you want a pitch shifter this is the one to get. First off this unit is built Boss tough so it should handle the abuse of the road. Second it sounds great the harmonies are excellent. I don?t use this pedal much since it is such a unique tool but if you need some extra flair such as a fluttering sound this unit does it with style.

Awesome!

This pedal really does it for me. I use the t-arm func. quite a bit, because i play a les paul and dont feel like putting a bigsby on it. the harmonies are awesome on a clean setting, they dont really sound as great over distortion but everything about this pedal is awesome, and it give you something to boost your sound sonically.

More than expected!

I just got this amazing pedal as a gift today, and it is great. I originally wanted it for harmonies but after messing around with the other effects i realized that this thing does so much more!!! I'm not much of a guitar theory guy so it's a little tough for me to dial in the right harmonies, but I can manage to get a good harmony from it. I really enjoy the tremolo bar effect, its like having a Floyd Rose at your feet and its so versatile! You can also control the time it takes for it to get from one pitch/ octave to another. There are so many other great things about this pedal that I can't fit in this review, but if you buy it, you'll see for yourself, that this is definitely a keeper! Buy it!
