Project overview

The Pirate Shift is a Chorus/Vibrato merged with a PT2399 based delay. It also has the ability to modulate over an octave as well as control the waveform of the modulator, giving you a huge range of tonal options. It works from a standard chorus to a crazy modulation device.

Introduction

Ahoy! The Pirate Shift is about to embark in search of the most fantastic modulation sounding! I see no fear in your eyes. Hop on the boat then and join us in this adventure.

Our board has the perfect delay, chorus, and vibrato combination and six user-friendly controls, Delay Time, Feedback, Depth, Speed, Wave, and Blend, that will allow you to navigate the briny deep of sounding with the ultimate versatility.

With the ability to be used as a standalone delay, chorus, or pitch vibrato, the Pirate Shift can be relentlessly tweaked and shaped to provide you with whatever modulation needs your heart desires.
