Talk:Pitch shifting

message: There should be more information on the history and uses of pitch shifters and harmonizers.--Atlantictire (talk) 21:24, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: The article says, "...a pitch shifter set to increase the pitch by a fourth will raise each note four diatonic intervals above the notes actually played."  This is entirely incorrect.  The diatonic scale nomenclature is based on ordinal numbers, hence the unison is "1".  Setting to a fourth will raise the "1" to a "4th", which is increasing the pitch by THREE diatonic intervals, not four.  SJGooch (talk) 08:09, 1 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: "Diatonic intervals" doesn't make sense in this sentence; it should be corrected to "diatonic steps". Also, for a pitch shifter to pitch shift diatonically, it would have to be auto-tuned as well or something. "...a pitch shifter set to increase the pitch by a perfect fourth will raise each note a perfect fourth above the notes actually played." would be better, but I suggest using a semitone or octave; more people will know what a semitone/octave is.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.22.215.9 (talk) 04:52, 14 August 2013 (UTC)

message: A Harmonizer is a 19" rack mounted effects unit manufactured by Eventide of New York USA since the 1970's. The Harmonizer H910 includes two digital delays and an Anti-Feedback system which was often used in concert live sound setups during the 80's. Some features of the Harmonizer model H910 exist today as a Plug-In for digital recording   http://www.eventide.com/Home/Eventide/AudioDivision/Products/PlugIns/H910H949Video.aspx.  
Why is the Harmonizer redirected to Pitch Shift??

replies: text: Because it's a kind of pitch shifter. Also, harmonizer is a term used to described pitch shifters which create harmonies.--Atlantictire (talk) 22:40, 3 August 2011 (UTC)
