    The Digitech Drop is probably the best of them. I definitely still hear little things in it that I don't like, but it's better than my AxeFX at pitch shifting. Ironically, the very BEST I've used at pitch shifting was the Line6 Pod HD500 - whatever they were doing for pitch shifting was amazing.

    I had heard that a while back but wasnt sure how good they were...be perfect for me its a bitch drop tuning a floyd rose
    Oh dude i feel your pain i love floyd’s but hate the maintenance and tuning on them. I stick with standard gibson bridges now, so its easy to drop tune and adjust action and intonation whenever needed. That is until i get bored and mod my explorer to have a trem system like allen collins did on his

    Mind you, it drops ALL of it, not one string. A drop pedal will not take you from standard to Drop D. It can take you from E standard to D standard, or Drop D to Drop C or Drop C#, but it will not change the tuning of individual strings, for clarity's sake.

    Have you tried changing your strings for a heavier gauge?
