It's a stupid effect that freezes the sound when you press the pedal.
Stupid yes, but it follows a lot of opportunities especially if you pair it with other effects (just watch the videos on youtube)


UTILIZATION

No need manual to understand how it works, simply adjust the volume of the effect to an agreement / note, press the footswitch and your agreement / note remains air (with a sound approximating more keyboard than a guitar)
A 3-position switch lets you adjust the onset of the effect:
- Fast: the effect is triggered when you press the button and shuts off when you release
- Slow: the effect is triggered by a fade in / fade out (you can set time by a manip on startup, see instructions)
- Latch: the effect is triggered when you press and hold the note given (useful for making an agreement to hold the note while you do a little solo, and then continues with a further agreement by pressing again on the pedal and so on)



SOUND QUALITY

As I said above the sound is more like a keyboard than a guitar, to be honest I really do no more than that, the contrary can be ca one more tool in the foot and the latch mode is ideal to go kick in the pink floyd (a good tablecloth in the background, a delay on the guitar and ride for 20 minutes: D) A small

OVERALL OPINION

nice pedal, a little expensive compared to its capabilities, but coupled with other effects you can find it quickly uses more or less far-fetched or not: p

A little hard to integrate into a set for live but for experimentation at home, no problem (hence the 10, because I bought it for that)
