AFAIK there are ∗no∗ analog pitch shifters. It's a very expensive
effect and one that doesn't lend itself to analog circuits too well.
Feel free to prove me wrong though :) As far as a CV controlled pitch
shifter, your best bet is probably the Eventide Eclipse. Its voltages
are a little different, and you can't just plug something straight in
(need funky cable), but it does work. As a word of caution, I've found
that the company has a rather "snotty" attitude and can be a bit
difficult to work with, but they make great effects. (Well, except
there delays, but anyway...)
From the manual:
"Stereo 1/4-inch connectors. The sleeve is ground reference, the ring
is a +5 volt (source),
and the tip is an analog signal between 0 to 5 volts input to the
Eclipse. Connect either foot
switches, foot pedals, or control voltage sources to these inputs to
modulate parameters or
to trigger events"
If you want a frequency shifter I highly recommend the Encore
Electronics MFS01, it's awesome :)
