Electro-Harmonix STRING9

String Ensemble
Transform your guitar tone into nine different string ensemble and string synthesizer sounds!The polyphonic STRING9 String Ensemble transforms a guitar into nine different string ensembles and string synthesizers without the need for modifications, special pickups or MIDI implementation. It is based on the same technology as all pedals of the EHX 9 series. As the first pedal in the 9 Series, the STRING9 features the signature EHX Freeze effect in 3 presets that samples and holds notes and chords with infinite sustain.With a rotary switch on the STRING9, players can select the sound of their choice as follows:

• SYMPHONIC: Produces the sound of a large symphony orchestra and provides an octave effect in the lower range of the guitar for a full sound.
• JUNE-O: Emulates the sound of the Juno® analogue string synthesiser.
• PCM: Sound of a small string section sampled from a vintage PCM keyboard, creating a warm vintage string sound
• FLOPPY: Emulates the sound of an Orchestron® optical disc playback sampler, including warble.
• AARP: Emulates the classic ARP Solina® string synthesizer.
• CREWMAN: Emulates the analogue string and brass synthesizer Crumar Performer®; Floyd in a Box
• ORCH FREEZE: Orchestral sound with EHX Freeze effect
• SYNTH FREEZE: String synthesizer sound with EHX Freeze effect
• VOX FREEZE: Mellotron® choir and string sound from the EHX MEL9 with EHX Freeze effect.

The pedal is equipped with independent effect and dry volume controls, allowing the player to precisely tune his mix at the effect output jack. In addition, the pedal has a Dry output jack that always outputs the input signal at Unity Gain.knobs 1 and 2 allow specific parameters to be set for each of the nine programs,.
