Read full description

Pitch Destroyer is a creative pitch effect that tears apart incoming melodies and rebuilds them into unpredictable, harmonized fragments. Instead of simply shifting pitch or adding harmony, Pitch Destroyer continuously captures pieces of your performance and launches them into new musical directions. Notes leap across octaves, fifths, pentatonic shapes, chromatic runs, and broken interval patterns while remaining surprisingly playable. The result is somewhere between a rogue arpeggiator, a fragmented harmonizer, and an improvising musical partner. From subtle ghost notes to complete melodic collapse, Pitch Destroyer transforms vocals, guitars, synths, basses, leads, pads, and samples into evolving streams of controlled chaos. Destroy the melody. Keep the music. Features • Creates rogue melodic fragments from incoming audio • Seven musical interval modes • Tempo-aware fragment generation • Dynamic pitch jumping and melodic mutation • Layered fragment voices for evolving textures • From subtle harmonization to complete melodic destruction Controls Destroy Controls how aggressively Pitch Destroyer breaks apart your melody. Range Sets how far generated fragments may jump in pitch. Density Controls how frequently new melodic fragments are created. Mode Selects the musical interval behavior: Octave Fifths Minor Major Pentatonic Chromatic Broken Chaos Controls randomness, timing variation, and melodic unpredictability. Glue Blends generated fragments into the original performance for smoother or more separated results. Mix Adjusts the balance between the original signal and the destroyed output.
