Pitch SHIFTER-910

Arturia

Where to get itAvailable from Arturiaarturia.com

Pitch Shifter-910 by Arturia is a vintage-inspired digital pitch-shifting audio effect that emulates legendary hardware units from the mid-1970s. It offers classic pitch shifting across ±1 octave with separate pitch and formant controls, a choice of two algorithms (Vintage 10 for authentic artifacts or Vintage 24 for clarity), and a feedback-driven delay line that can pitch-shift repeats. The plugin adds modern flexibility through MIDI control for polyphonic pitch manipulation, dual voice modes for detuning and stereo spread, and advanced features like humanized vibrato and tilt EQ.

Written from the manual and checked against it. How we check

Key Features

01Classic pitch shifting ±1 octave with separate Pitch and Formant controls
02Two modes: Vintage 10 (original algorithm with artifacts) and Vintage 24 (cleaner processing)
03Delay and Pitched Delay with feedback loop routed back through Shifter
04Delay rate from 24ms to 2 seconds with Sync Straight, Sync Triplet, and Sync Dotted tempo options
05MIDI control with up to four-voice polyphony (Poly 4 mode) and monophonic modes (Legato and Retrig)
06Humanized vibrato with speed from 0.01Hz to 10Hz and Humanizer for natural instability
07Input drive for saturation, low/high-pass filters in delay feedback, and Tilt EQ on output

Things to Try

  • 01For the most authentic recreation of the classic sound, keep the Pitch and Formant linked at the same value and set the Mode to Vintage 10
  • 02For a more natural tone as you shift the pitch, leave the Formant at 0 to preserve the spectral character of the original audio and set the Mode to Vintage 24 for a bit more clarity
  • 03If you want a delay effect that is super-gritty, artifact-ridden, and full of character but don't want to pitch shift, leave the Shifter section set to zero and use the Pitched Delay mode; the repeats will be routed through the Shifter algorithm and be subject to the vintage circuitry
  • 04Extremely high Glide values in Poly 4 mode can produce unusual and otherworldly pitch behavior
