Why should you be curious about the Morpheus Droptune? Numerous reasons. Say you've trudged through the tablature transcription of -- for example -- Change (In The House Of Flies), and you've got yourself all set to play along with the original recording, only to discover that the song was recorded three half-steps below standard tuning (I'm guessing, here, w/r/t that specific example). Or, say you're in a wedding band and a black metal cover band (it could happen), and you'd really rather not get your vintage Paul re-set-up every time you bounce between genres–nor would you like to have to buy a second $2,000 axe just to play with a band who -- let's be honest -- is having a hell of a time booking any Bar / Bat Mitzvahs.

As Owen dutifully demonstrates, the Morpheus Droptune pedal allays all these concerns, and more! For the most part. This digital effect can drop your standard-tuned axe three half-steps down and still track and retain note separation with impressive facility. It even does a full octave drop and a lovely octaver-down effect. So how does it sound? Peep this video demo and find out for yourself.
