Eventide MicroPitch Delay Eventide Audio has released the MicroPitch Delay , a digital signal processing algorithm in a standalone pedal .
The MicroPitch Delay effect was first introduced within the H910 and H949 effects processors , and further popularized in the H3000 Harmonizer . Now players can harness this Eventide effect with the MicroPitch Delay pedal , which offers a unique combination of dual pitch-shifters with fine-resolution detuning , delay , and modulation – including new positive envelope and negative envelope modulation sources . Its distinctive architecture yields a wide breadth of sonic applications , ranging from subtle tone thickening to creating a rich stereo spread to a host of creative sound design special effects . The rugged red MicroPitch Delay pedal is not just for guitars , as it adds dimension to any source from vocals and keyboards to drums , strings , brass , and winds .
Users can choose from dozens of Eventide presets to load via MIDI , which are also accessible in the preset list on the Eventide Device Manager . The pedal can store up to 127 presets in memory , with five presets loaded for access from a latching / momentary dual-action active footswitch with a Catch-up mode to help players dial in their sound when toggling between presets / parameters . A single Aux switch can be deployed to Tap Tempo , or a triple Aux switch can be used for easy preset changing .

Boss BIC-P Premium Instrument Cable Series Boss has introduced the BIC-P series of premium-grade guitar and bass cables .
In developing the BIC-P line , Boss says it evaluated the many elements that go into a cable – wire gauge and type , shielding , connectors , and more – and how they all work together to affect the sound . Through deep experimentation , it says a proprietary combination of materials was created that accurately translates the richness and character of an instrument ’ s pickups and natural resonances , providing players with a more sonically-pure cable .
Each BIC-P cable features an 18 AWG multi-strand centre conductor made with 99.99 % pure oxygen-free mono-crystal copper , delivering full , balanced tone with warmth , punch , and clarity . Braided monocrystal copper shielding and 24K gold-plated connectors further enhance performance , while a woven outer jacket coils smoothly and provides durability . The BIC-P cables are available in 10-ft . and 18-ft . lengths with straight-to-straight 1 / 4-in . connectors ( BIC-P10 , BIC-P18 ) and straight-to-right angle 1 / 4-in . connectors ( BIC-P10A , BIC-P18A ).
