Make my guitar work properly

When i hit a note, even with distortion, it sounds tuneful and melodic... i want it to make horrible noise... will completely detuning it do this?

all i need is to alternate between ugly noises and black metal/hardcore punk speed power chordage, since the guitar isnt gonna be at the forefront of the tune, just part of the vicious noises.

a pitch shifter can make you appear out of tune but it'll be constant.

With my gt8 I can assign a non-shifted signal to one channel and a shifted-signal to the other channel and then make it use pick strength dynamics to phase between the two channels. But a gt8 is pretty expensive for just that one purpose.

Playing faster than you can play properly will result in something that's very messy too as can playing a bunch of semi-muted and incorrectly fretted chords.

From what I'm hearing, that's not even a guitar. That's a keyboard sent through about 8,000 filters.

if you want your guitar to make horrifying noises i suggest a signal chain with multiple extreme gain distortion boxes...
