So what's the difference?
XS-1 is the newest in the line, this is your tool for changing the tuning of your guitar without changing your tone, all while giving you a blend control, chorus-like detuning, and expression control.
OC-5 is the classic pitch shift sound from BOSS. It's a bit synth-like, and that's what lovers of OC series love about it. This one does just octaves, but will go up and down simultaneously, and follow your lowest note automatically.
PS-6, as the name implies, is for Harmony. Pick your key and it will intelligently harmonize to what you are playing. Instant Thin Lizzy, or Iron Maiden.
Of course, there is some overlap and a few shared features between all these models, it's what we do.
