The Boss PS-6 Harmonist takes guitar harmony to the next level. With the ability to create up to three-part harmonies or four pitch shifts types, plus the ability to control the pitch via an expression pedal, the PS-6 Harmonist is all you'd ever want from a versatile pitch shifter.

Sounds

Running off a brand new powerful DSP, the PS-6 can render complex harmonies with low latency. Get creative with your choice of Harmony, Pitch Shifter, Detune or Super Bend settings. The former can generate direct, third of fifth harmonies. Pitch Shifter alters the original signal – ideal for experimentation. Detune broadens your sound in longer stretches and Super Bend covers an incredible seven-octave range with controllable rise and fall rate.

Renowned Boss build quality

Boss pedals have a reputation for being built like tanks. You can be sure that however much you drop it, kick it, throw it and jump on it, it'll still come back for more. These pedals constantly survive the rigours of rock 'n' roll touring, and that's why they're seen at the feet of top touring pros everywhere.

Reliability really can be affordable to all. Boss are so sure their compact pedals last the test of time, they cover them with a full five year warranty.

Brand

Boss

BOSS began in Osaka in 1973 as MEG Electronics, a company dedicated to effects. Its first BOSS-branded effect was the CE-1 Chorus Ensemble in 1976; the OD-1, SP-1 and PH-1 launched the compact-effects series in 1977. The JustPedals catalogue includes familiar overdrives and distortions such as the OD-3, SD-1, BD-2, DS-1 and MT-2 Metal Zone, as well as utility items such as the PCS-20A cable. BOSS now spans compact pedals, multi-effects, loopers, tuners and controllers. Manufacturing origin should be checked by model rather than inferred from the brand’s Japanese history.

Specialist Effects Pedals

Specialist effects alter the signal in ways that do not sit cleanly inside one established family. They may use granular processing, frequency shifting, resonators, freeze or sustain, bit reduction, ring modulation, feedback networks or combinations of several techniques. The relevant distinction is the underlying process, its tracking or latency, and how completely the dry signal can be blended or replaced.
