Pitch-shifting percussion sounds in realtime...

["David Kuckhermann" <david.kuck@web.de>]

Hi!

Since I have my repeater and try around with it, I had this idea: I´m a 
percussionist, but many of the percussions I use, especially frame drums 
have a very strong pitch. I realize with the repeater how nice it sounds 
to tweak the pich of these in any direction. 
Now what I would like to do is use this in realtime. Playing the drum in 
the microphone, the signal in an effect unit with a pitch shifter and 
controlling the pitch with my behringer midi footcontroller so that I 
could play a groove and play a melody with this groove with my feet... 
There would be so many nice possibilities like a polyrhythm where the 
different parts are changing pitch creating harmonies. Or the possibility 
to use a small drum to create a very low sub-bass.

I´m also interested in just routing the percussions through different kind 
of effects. Anyone experience with this?
