Implemented Virtual Capo in Pitch Block

hippietim

Axe-Master
With my AX8, I’m using a Digitech Drop pedal. But the pitch block in the III does polyphonic transposition much better than prior units and I think it’s probably better than the Drop (I have not had time to A/B yet).

The III can do a virtual capo +/- a 5th without any significant artifacts.

So why am I asking for a new pitch block type? Simplicity. It literally needs one parameter. I’ve been using multifx for decades and I’ve got a decade with Fractal products so it was no big deal - I knew what to do right away. But it was way more cumbersome than it had to be.

The second part of the feature request is a way to set the capo position easily on the fly. There’s a few possibilities that would be handy: 1) configure a front panel knob to adjust the capo position, 2) some sort of a learn mode like selecting the key in the pitch block (the Variax has an easy way to set a virtual capo in a learn mode), 3) control switch that loops around a configured range.
