First 'keeper' in its category
Since my first encounter with a harmonizer, I've been wondering what on earth I could use it for in my own music. The added tones always sounded strange (unless rocketed through a fat distortion) and seemed a challenge to use without creating a cliché solo sound, let alone using it for clean purposes.
But then this unit came along. It's lovely: clean, overdriven, however you like it - but it wants very clean power. I recommend a Boss PSA 230S. Also, make it the first pedal in your chain, before a compressor, booster etc. It works best with a direct guitar signal. If not, it will produce rumble and clicks, probably because it's confused :-)
The poly feature isn't great, but for single tones this harmonizer is the best ever... and cheap, by the way. It's superfast, and its added tones easily match my strat's different pickup signals, and pitch bending, vibrato, slides, tapping... Now I find myself wondering WHERE I can use this harmonizer on the new album.

Very cool intelligent harmonizer
Fast tracking, great sound and a slew of features (many accessible through TC's TonePrint Editor) make this a top choice among harmonizers. Built to TC's usual high standard, everything feels nice and sturdy (jacks, pots/knobs, power input, switch). The MASH switch is a great innovation, opening up a lot of possibilities (especially simulating pedal steel bends!). There's only one downside and that is the functionality of the switch - the difference in pressure and timing when using the MASH and when switching the pedal on/off is something you have to get the hang of if you want to use it live. It takes quite a lot of practice and make sure you take your time with it. other than that - fantastic.

Diverse pedal with great technology
I really like this pedal, although it requires some musical knowledge (scales), which I don't have. But nevertheless, you can always try to find good sounding notes even if you lack some theoretical background. It just takes a bit more time. It has lots of technology packed into a normal size pedal, like the Mesh technology, which works very well.
This pedal is however not a classical pitch shifter! It is a harmonizer. If you just want a pitch shift, I would recommend EH Pitch Fork.

I like it, I like it
Ik had hiervoor de PS-6 Harmonist van Boss en was hiervan niet zo overtuigd qua klankvorming en dat is toch essentieel bij harmoniën.
Ik vind deze Quintessence veel beter al is hij 50 à 60 € goedkoper.
Harmoniën kloppen veel beter en de "Mash" functie geeft nog wat extra expressie !
Volledig tevreden over het resultaat ! ! !

Unbeatable for the price!
You can do so much with this pedal its great!
the tracking is really good, using on upright with a piezo no problem!
There are lots of possibilities, especially if you start using the editor! For example you can slightly delay the harmonies to great effect on arpeggios or riffs!
The sound is good and stable!
For the price you can't beat it, its got the Tc electronics quality, its sounds really good with great tracking and its stereo!

Amazing sound Tc unbeaten quality
I mostly use the given product when I am in rehearsal or live with my band Felony Case. I mostly compose melodies with 3rd and 5th harmonies so this pedal does an amazing job in this case. You have to know a little of music theory to use it easily. I cannot find any cons in that pedal but only pros . Amazing quality amazing price

Unbelievable
I love this... It's very accurate and even bends the harmony...
Only downside is the predefined pitch of the intervals.
