HR-2 is the only harmonizer I ever tried, mind that... I think it tracks very, very good, a compressor or light overdrive before it helps a bit. The harmonies sounds very good to me. It�s of course a little worksome that you have to pull down and change the key when you�re beggining a new song in another key, difficult on a dark stage. HR-2 is a very good noise-maker, placed before a fuzz or any heavy distorsion. Makes good octaves and can be used as a nice chorus. The downside: your guitar has to be perfectly in tune, this effect can only be used sparingly or your audience/bandmates will get bored
.................this effect can only be used sparingly or your audience/bandmates will get bored
Does this not apply to a lot of effects such as Auto Wah, Chorus, Flange, Phase etc. Use them all the time an the appeal wears off. Distortion on the other hand................perhaps that is one of the reason why there are so many different bosspedals around which do give you all kinds of flavours of that effect.
