Danish analog pedal with Chorus, Pitch Modulator and a Flanger.

3 Buttons, 1 3-position selector for selecting the effect and a switch to activate the effect. Feeding the beast is internal to the rugged metal housing and very good. No need to bother with a power supply external, is connected to.

The connection is complete (all format Jack): 1 input, 2 stereo outputs (one for mono) and output bypass. Not to mention the small gain control that can boost the signal input.

The impression left by the machine's durability. The finisher is impeccable, the knobs specified, the switch is made to hold the year and switch to activate the effect is delicate yet strong and accurate.

UTILIZATION

I would put aside the fact Pitch modulator (anecdotal to me) to concentrate on two effects that make the value of this pedal: the Chorus and Flanger.

The settings are simple with only three buttons, we've seen more complicated.

A SPEED to adjust the effect speed, a depth and width for a INTENSITY lives up to its name for the Flanger and acts as a balance between the effect and the raw sound for the chorus.

It takes very little time to find a sound that ... sounds!

SOUND QUALITY

If its use is simple, the range offered is monstrous. Dissonant chorus of the classic chorus scofieldien through the HUGE flangers worthy of the finest hours of the Cure. In distortion, the result is quite strong too. I have fond memories of repeated or Lorqui Feedback I played with the guitar, they returned in resonance with the effect for a surprising result!

Not only does it do everything for chorus and flanger, but this pedal does not color the sound of the instrument, all with a total lack of breath and parasite. Nor should we forget the gain control that can boost the input signal. This can be useful after the instrument connected.

And this is another quality of the beast: micro vocals, synth, bass or guitar. Everything (almost) can plug into this magic box with the same result.

OVERALL OPINION

This pedal does not have a robust appearance. I played with for over 8 years and has never dropped. Not a failure, not a potentiometer in the bay, nothing.

In addition, the look is stylish, simple, and many sounds available (but this is my opinion) sound quality well above its competitors. I had the opportunity to play with a number of chorus (Boss, Electro-Harmonix particular) or multi-effects but none can live up to the TC Electronics.

Buy new 2300 francs at the time (350 Euros) it can be expensive for just one foot but it was money well spent.

If I had to change a lot of stuff again, I never sold this pedal will remain much longer in my arsenal of sound.

A must.
