    The Whammy DT can actual change the tunning of your guitar in 1/2 steps either up or down in pitch. It also does everything the regular Whammy does. The regular Whammy only does pitch bends or harmonies.

    its a little awkward, but you can get used to it. if the drop tuning leaves all your strings in some sort of harmony with the drop tuned signal, you get used to it really quickly and it feels cool if you catch some good feedback

    Actually there is another feature in the 5 dude. It has a chord tracking feature also. I own the DT and love it. But for those who want cleaner chord tracking then the 5 does it much better oh also a toggle switch allows you to switch between the newe tracking or original version. I prefer the glitchy sounding tracking from the 1 to DT models :)

  • @taftmcintosh
    @taftmcintosh 12 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Depends on the volume. If your in the bedroom playing low it bugs the shit out of me. I can feel the difference with my hands on rare occasions. Ultimately though at any real world volume level you cant tell at all. The drop tune settings really just add a whole new dimension to what people have been doing with the whammy and octave effects for years now. Youve heard alot of these tones on dozens of albums and might not even know it, the dt is just alot better at tracking than older pedals.

    Can this thing also drop tune in semitones as well so in theory could I go from setting my guitar in drop d and then dropping it to drop b which would be a step and half ?? Please anyone share light on this if you know :)
