Thank you for making this. I use the PS6 and have it on a couple guitar boards. I think it's strength is the harmony function. The "pitch shifting" doesn't quite add up to the Whammy and doesn't have a couple intervals though the Whammy is ENORMOUS for a small board. I hope Boss is still pushing to get it just a bit better - I mean, it's a killer pedal just needs a tad more.
I have the Bass Whammy and BOSS PS3. I have the PS-5 on the way and can't wait to try it. AS for the PS3,I find the most use with it in mode 4. I started demo-ing pedals in my channel so maybe I'll do a shootout after it arrives. Too bad I got rid of the Meris Hedra to add to the mix
The whammy don't use 1300ma , he made a mistake. it's ~ 180 / 230ma. The 1300ma is the current draw of the power supply include with the pedal.( source : stinkfoot )
+siebe sijpkens thanks a lot! bought the Harmonist with the detune setting and whammy with a harmony setting. Some Delay added later with a plug in. Cheers!
You can. :) you can add an extra cot up, schift the signal an octave up and even use the switch for a quick momentary shift. there are some 3 voice chords that you can do with the thing. check the manual for details. Cheers!
IMHO the whammy is better for harmony pitch shifting. I used the two for the Detune option as a chorus. There I find both equal, so I choose the harmonist because it's smaller and has less current draw. I already switched it to an even smaller pedal thou :)
azenhar idk if you figured this out or not but you get 3 voicings all the time with the Harmony setting. if you run mono all will be sent to one output of your running stereo it'll split the voicings separating them between outputs.
My PS-6 sounds waaaaaaaay better than your demo! I wonder what it would sound like IN FRONT of the signal chain. You may want to try that. - PS, The PS-6 has a lot more options. The Super Bend mode has a +4 octave Up Shift and, in my opinion, a monster +2 octaves AND -2 octaves at the same time (in Stereo or Mono)! Kinda like a Hammond B3 organ sound! - Peace :-)
THX for the idea, but unfortunately I no longer have the boss or the whammy... got a mooer pitch box (only use the detune option, so it's sufficient). the bass whammy is true bypass though, don't think It's would influence the boss. I tried to compare the options that both pedals have. That's why I didn't show all the options of the pedals. Thanks for the feedback! cheers :)
if you mean that the harmonist sounds worse than the whammy, your opinion. :) If you mean that I processed the sound of the harmonist to make it sound better, than I SWEAR I did not... There is no money flow between me and BOSS, i assure you ;)

Honestly, I think I prefer the Bass Whammy. The smoother tracking just sounds better to my ears.
youre probably right but using the ps6 with an expression pedal is much better
did i hear right in two :D
Wow your playing sounds really good! I was amazed by some of the riffs you popped out

Hmmm some Tool stuff going on under the pedals... ;)
Is it me or the dust on the black sheet forms something close to tool's 10,000 days artwork? Maybe, it's something underneath, not dust: I'm confused.
Your intuition serve you well! check out my newest video. there the same cloth is turned around. ;)
scale at 3.07
Whammy weight = 440 g
Boss`s weight = 1,6 kg !!
Is it TRUE? Look - not vice versa?
It's not dust.. It's PCP
@@ZaTsoja UPPPSSSSSS! THX BRO!
Smart song choice seeing as Justin Chancellor uses whammy shifter himself

Wow, a 1300mA current draw compared to 45mA is very significant

Is it Right in Two bass line at 0:01?
that intro track iz beavtifvl pleaze tell me that whole recording iz available zomewhere
Very nice demonstration! What gear/pedal(s) did you use in the intro theme?
+siebe sijpkens thanks a lot! bought the Harmonist with the detune setting and whammy with a harmony setting. Some Delay added later with a plug in.
Cheers!
What is the track at the beginning and at the end? How do you achieve this sound?
Thanks for the video man !
+Daniel negron thanks! Really glad I could help :)
Cool tones
Can U use the PS-6 six as a simple octave up effect? In the harmony mode can it emulate chords or only 2 notes at the same time?
You can. :) you can add an extra cot up, schift the signal an octave up and even use the switch for a quick momentary shift. there are some 3 voice chords that you can do with the thing. check the manual for details.

to me the boss bending is more synthetic and nasty-glitchy
Which pedal do you prefer?
IMHO the whammy is better for harmony pitch shifting. I used the two for
the Detune option as a chorus. There I find both equal, so I choose
the harmonist because it's smaller and has less current draw. I already switched it to an even smaller pedal thou :)
Have I got to plug 2 output cables to have 3 voices sound?
+Omero Vitali think so, you can check the manual. Its downloadable from the boss site.
azenhar idk if you figured this out or not but you get 3 voicings all the time with the Harmony setting. if you run mono all will be sent to one output of your running stereo it'll split the voicings separating them between outputs.
Maaaan, you got a full version of that intro?
Hehe thank you. :) that was something I wrote a long time ago. :)
@@azenhar I'll take that as a 'no' :((
The intro sounds very Tool, even Lateralus at 2:32
Cool bid thanks

Whammy is better
