Michael, what Nils does live with his TC G-Force (believe it or not) is just patching 2 different values or more for the 2 voices of the pitch shifters...so when he moves his pedal he changes chords. That processor allows him only a few preset changes...while an Eventide would allow an user to preset a control table of up to 11 shifting voices with 50 steps each, think 50 chords with a max. of 11+1 dry voices...well, this is power!!! I recently saw him here in Italy and did an interview with his gtr player, Eivind Aarset...cool band...absolutely brilliant...top 5 in the world!!!
