Ever wanted to drop your tuning without the faff of switching guitars or messing with your setup? The DigiTech Drop is just what you need. This clever little box lets you shift your pitch from a single semitone all the way down to a full octave. It’s perfect if you’re chasing chunky riffs or simply want to experiment with lower tunings. Just pop it first in your signal chain and let it work its magic!
And here’s the kicker — it’s not just for static tuning changes. Thanks to its momentary/latching switch, you can use it as a performance tool too. Flick it to momentary mode and you’ve got instant access to dramatic pitch dips, just by holding your foot down on the switch.
9 drop effect settings
With a single knob, you can dial in exactly how low you want to go:
- 1: Drops your signal by 1 semitone, great for quick half-step tuning changes.
- 2: Down 2 semitones — ideal for whole-step drops without retuning.
- Settings 3-7: Keep going lower, semitone by semitone, for heavier and darker tones.
- OCT: Unleash monstrous low-end power with a full octave down.
- OCT + DRY: Octave down with your original signal blended in. It’s perfect for thick, layered sounds (think Royal Blood).
