DigiTech® Bass Whammy™ Featuring Branden Campbell of Neon Trees

DigiTech

collapse expand iconDescription

The next generation DidiTech Bass Whammy effects pedal uses the most advanced pitch detection and polyphonic note-tracking technology to create the world's best pitch-shifting effect pedal optimized for bass. The Bass Whammy maintains the classic settings from the original with many modern upgrades.

With two different tracking modes, Classic and Chord, the Bass Whammy gives players the ability to recreate the shift glitch effects from the original or get the smooth pitch-shift effect. Chord mode uses advanced polyphonic tracking algorithms for a more exact and smooth pitch shift effect while Classic maintains the tracking artifacts of the original Whammy. The Bass Whammy is true bypass, MIDI controllable and uses a 9V DC power supply to easily integrate into your existing pedal board.

    A lot of options, simply better than I expected. Now, I will need much more time for practice. It's the first Whammy I use and it will be challenging for me to handle it pinpointly.

  • This pedal works and sounds great

    I have used this pedal for well over 3 years and have never had an Issue with it , The settings are well thought out for bass and being able to do classic and modern settings . If I ever have an issue with it I will get another one no problem.

  • So glad this is in production again!

    Love love love this new version. Captures chords very well and the setting options are well thought out for bassists and the sound is VERY good! This adds new dimensions to bass creativity and can be used effectively in several genres.

    I treat my gear good, this has been on a pedal train and kept in the flight case it's whole life. Exactly 1 month out of warranty the LED's flaked out while trying to re-calibrate. Digietech support was nice, but they refused to fix it, instead referring me to a local company that can "repair" at my cost. They charge $80/hour + parts. At that rate, I'd be better off buying a new one... Here I come EHX Pitchfork. This will be the last product I buy from Digitech.

    No, it's a Whammy pedal. They're nothing alike.
