David,
the thing you might like to try is using filters with a low Q before going
into the pitch shifter. The filter will bring out any characteristic
"pitch"
of your drums (if tuned to the right frequency, that is), and this can then
be shifted around...a device to try for this is the TC Fireworx (which I
actually used to do this kind of thing) - its interface helps to simplify
the process, as it has a MIDI note to frequency function for tuning the
filter.
Apart from that, did you succeed in controlling pitch of the repeater with
the FCB1010? While I can happily use the expression pedals to pitchbend
around, somehow assigning controller values to the buttons and thus play
the
shifter bass-pedal-style didn't work. Is there any limitation on the
Behringer I should be aware of (or any thing to keep in mind), or was I
just
too stupid?
