Electro-Harmonix RING THING – effects pedal

The Ring Thing is an advanced modulator delivering everything from classic ring modulation to pitch-shifting, tremolo harmonization, and metallic side-band effects. Thanks to its precise digital engine, tracking is exceptionally clean, and pitch intervals remain stable, allowing for musical leads as well as parallel harmonies or widely detuned textures. The pedal offers multiple modes: upper or lower side-band for robotic, bell-like tones; pitch-shift that processes both chords and notes clearly; and hybrid tremolo/ring-modulation that blends amplitude effects with harmonic complexity. The selectable carrier wave greatly determines the character, ranging from pure sine to sharp square-wave aggression. The built-in envelope follower adds expressive movement and responds to your playing dynamics. The Ring Thing is ideal for experimental sound design but also feels at home in melodic contexts thanks to its versatile harmonizer capabilities.
