Simple and efficient

Very simple pedal with simple controls, yet it has a big sound. Great at low and high rates, and good depth.

Shimmery vibrato

2 knobs, that's all you need. I'm not sure how close of a clone this is to the Boss VB-2 or even Behringer's UV300, but it sounds pretty good.

My one complaint is that there's a noticeable jump in volume and a small change in tone when engaged. I've tried adjusting trim pots to find the gain control but no dice so far (unless someone knows where to find a schematic!)

Cheap. Good.

Easy to use, clear labels, space efficient.

All you need is depth and speed.

Honestly one of my favourite pedals and definitely my fav in this series. Super great wobbles. Instant Glass Animals tones. Really great.

Sturdy casing, knobs feel cheap but all in working order years later, quiet button but be careful as you can half press it sometimes and achieve nothing. Really can't complain as it's so affordable and more than makes up with the sound quality.

I have 3 other pedals in this series and have said mostly the same as they're consistently good for the price :) yeehaw

Does the trick!

Not only a great pedal for the price but a killer vibrato in general. Great for bass too on the bridge pickup to help it pop out instead of distortion or a boost.

Great addition to any pedalboard

If you are looking for the old tape/radio sound like in Akira Yamaoka Silent Hill songs, this pedal can get you close to it.

It also has the range to create more typical vibrato.

Over all an excellent vibrato pedal - don't let the low price fool you.

Great sound

I use this pedal as one of a range for an analogue mono synth. I love the vibrato effect.

Pros - great 'vintage' effect adding character, wobble and warmth to the sound of the synth, great construction, all connections including power on the rear of the case instead of the sides.

Cons - low in features but great at what it does.

Vibey and cheap. Insane!

This pedal has a great vibe, it's built like a tank and it's incredibly cheap. So much mojo from one pedal alone!

A surprise, but a welcomed one.

This was a purchase just because I got a voucher for my birthday, and after a few necessities, there was enough left over to get something just as a treat. And man, did it deliver!

To be fair, I'm not a fan of deep vibrato sounds on anything more than a couple of notes, but putting this in a slow speed, with shallow to mid depth at the end of the chain gave me the coolest lo-fi vibe I could want, and made me play around with it for hours on end.

It's cheap, it's well built, it's got a soft click switch, it sounds simple yet great, and it looks good. No cons can be found without nitpicking (like the effect only comes on when you *release* the switch, not right when you click it), so if you're not interested in those crazy Earthquaker Devices style effects, and just want a simple thing that works really well, DEW IT.
