Rev+Trem

As much as I want to like this pedal, I am underwhelmed. On paper, it has all the features I was looking for (it is like a Flint but with shimmer option on the plate verb). Soundwise, however, I am not sure. The 3 reverbs are good sounding, but they are more subtle than lush. There is nothing that really stands out here. The trem section is good though.

Excellent compact pedal with loads to offer

With three reverb settings from spring to plate, three trem settings and modifiers for each setting there is loads of control in this pedal. The reverb alone is beautiful - providing reverb you could use all the time and larger soundscapes with shimmer added in the plate if you want. I love the size of it too as not loads of space on my board. The only downside for me is the colour switch keeps popping off which is a bit annoying as you need to use it all the time to switch between settings. Other than that a fantastic pedal in my opinion.
