Replace Pitch Block Dual Detune when I need to use the Virtual Capo

[Jetset95]

This is one of my favourite presets - making heavy use of the Dumble ODS family to get Clean, EOB, Crunch Rhythm and Lead Tones with limited resources applied. I love the sound of the Dual Detune to thicken up the sound and then I just push it up to 50% Mix to get a beautiful chorus sound for my clean tones (80's music freak here, just in case you hadn't spotted the Phaser). The problem is we now have some songs which require a drop tuning so I'm looking for alternatives to get that Dual Detune sound when the Pitch block is doing duty up front.

Apologies if this is something everyone already knows the answer to but me (positive or negative), but thanks for your input.

In many cases, it's virtually impossible to tell the difference between a clean triangle chorus and a dual detune. Start with Digital Stereo. Set LFO Phase to 180. LFO Type to Triangle.

This. And set Width to 100.

That would only get me one or the other though...

Thanks for the pitchshift detune tip with the chorus block. Works great! I'm running it in parallel and mix to taste.

Thanks @Admin M@ and @steadystate trying it now.

Having the Chorus set at about 10% Mix really works like the 25% for the Pitch Block - and 50% gives you that lovely 80's Chorus tone thanks very much guys.

I use the Plex delay for detune in patches where I need the virtual capo. It works very well. It's almost better than the dual detune, honestly.

Here's a version with chorus and with Plex that get very close to my preferred dual detune settings.
