Following up with the success of the CHUG line of pedals, Ola Englund’s Solar Guitars releases their first digital product to the series, the CHUG CAPO. This new CAPO pedal is exactly what it says it is, a digital bi-directional Capo. Just like a Capo, the thought process is familiar to any guitarist because it is linear like the fretboard… DOWN & UP! Up & down by semitones. +12 up down octave & -12 up one octave. That simple. Arrow buttons are to the right and left of a bold bright display to drop or raise pitch an octave in either direction by semitone.
There are two major advantages of the CAPO over other single pitch pedals in the market. The first is Low Latency: The Capo has roughly half of the latency of other popular pitch pedals. Fast tempo right hand picking and chugging won’t give the feel of your playing dragging behind due to latency like other pedals.
The second is Sonic Integrity. The voicing has been meticulously programmed so pitch/key changed CHORDS sound the same as an unaltered chord sound. This practical approach allows the user to digitally change keys with minimum compromise on sonic integrity for playing the body of a song. Your tone remains true through the range of pitch changes in a way that has never before been heard.
CHUG CAPO: 249€ (EU) / ~$279 (USA Sweet Price, shipping and duty included)
