Interesting and versatile
Anonymous 29.05.2015
A bit out there compared to more traditional basspedals (like dist. or chorus) but still very useable. Basically like a octaver, fuzz and auto-wah all in one. 100% analog and sweet sounding. Great for creating cool vintage synth sounds from slow sweeps to more Mario type things. The attack delay allows for a faux bowed sound.

Fair warning, this pedal is analog which means its monophonic, so it will only track one note at the time. But playing around with the glitches of it trying to track two different notes can create some pretty cool sounds.

The pedal arrives with two sheets showing different "pre-sets". These are a good starting point, as there is a little bit of a learning curve for this pedal.

Even thou it is a bit on the pricey side i haven't regretted buying mine once since it arrived, and if it broke i would probably buy another one (i love them analog sounds). Usable for anything from a bottom end boost to crazy distorted synth sweeps. 5/5

HE
Tracking...
Hugo Emaunel Spook 12.08.2014
This is a quite old design and it is noticable.
I'm a little disappointed in the octave region of the pedal. The octave down is decent but the ocatave up is rather weak. Square wave is excellent however.
There are also some problems with the tracking when playing notes to hard resulting in the signal is being cut. Properly muting string when not playing and between notes eliminates almost entierly.
If you are looking for a pedal that does octaves there are better alternatives. EHX's newer POG and HOG pedals comes to mind.
The filter section is what makes this pedal shine. It's not very interesting by itself but when combines with the square wave and some octave down some really nice synth sounds.
I yet to find a use for it in a song however.
