Vision Guitar MicroPitch Delay
Strymon · pedal
The Eventide MicroPitch Delay, part of the dot9 series, builds on the classic Eventide micropitch effect, combining subtle dual-voice detuning, one voice slightly sharp and one slightly flat, with short delays for rich, three-dimensional thickening and width. It ranges from barely-there detune that fattens and widens a tone to lush, shimmering chorus-like movement and longer modulated delays, with controls for detune amount, delay, modulation depth and rate, and feedback, plus stereo operation. Eventide's signature micropitch sound adds dimension without the obvious wobble of chorus, and onboard modulation and an envelope option add expressive motion. It suits players wanting studio-grade stereo widening, subtle detune thickening, and lush ambient textures for clean rhythm, lead, and atmospheric playing in rock, ambient, and modern styles.
