Digitech Whammy

Hi,

I was wondering, does the Kemper cover all functionalities of the latest DigiTech Whammy pedal?

Cheers,

I've had all the digitech whammy pedals, including the original WH1 pedal that is hard to find. I use the Kemper's whammy now. It's not quite as good as the WH1 was, but that pedal costs around $400-$500. I think the Kemper's whammy is as good as, or better than all the others. And yes, it can do everything (whammy, pitch shifting, harmonies, etc.).

It can't do the distorted sound when you pitch up and hit more than one string. It's polyphonic and the whammy (at least the Whammy IV) isn't.
For everything else, the Kemper pitch effects are fine!

I have the digitech Whammy DT and couldn't be happier with it, run it directly in front of the amp and it doesn't color the sound or anything, having said that I do also have the mission enfineering expression pedal and you get different variations of the whammy , they are not quite the same thing, so it's good to have both. hope this helps. cheers.
