    Very good

    Tremolo analog apparently.
    Stereo output radical effect.

    UTILIZATION

    The knobs are hyper sensitive, move a mm you have not made the same!
    Sy must try several times and requires a bit of courage to tame the effect.
    The settings are sensitive.

    SOUND QUALITY

    For so cheap in secondhand, go for it.
    I wanted a tremolo for a while, had squinted at the boss coughed ...
    Well, you can get a very light and effective tremolo, or else spend your chopper to his playing with the knobs is ra-di-cal!
    Try the stereo output, you'll catch the seasickness, sincerely! This means its effectiveness. Sure, it may sound slightly attenuated, but this is a detail.

    If you are penniless, investment worth. it does not leave the pedalboard, known to be discreet or otherwise ubiquitous (as god) and is very well work.

    Not bad at all this little tremolo

    Electro-Harmonix Stereo PulsarPublished on 03/12/12 at 09:50

    Tremolo analog mono / stereo
    true bypass
    EHX model size (slightly larger than a boss), power supply type 9V boss
    3 buttons: the intensity (height variation), speed, and the waveform, plus a small switch to change modes triangle (trmolo progressive) to square mode (tremolo "binary")
    For me it lacks a stereo input to avoid "breaking" of the stereo effects loop
    Ultra solid stainless steel case, made in United States

    UTILIZATION

    Super simple, no need manual.
    Knobs are very sensitive (almost too), beautiful range of effects.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Apart from my boss who is a delay, I have nothing but EHX: reverb (cathedral), chorus / flanger (Electric Mistress).

    SOUND QUALITY

    Apart from my boss who is a delay, I have nothing but EHX: reverb (cathedral), chorus / flanger (Electric Mistress).

    The sound is just what one would expect from a good tremolo, which is not a very complicated effect: clear, do not vary the overall volume of activation.
    So no surprises, it does what you ask, the simple vibrato cut ultra light with the hash.

    I have not tried it in stereo.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Used for several days, I love it because it does exactly what I want. EHX effects, analog or digital are of excellent craftsmanship.
    A tremolo is a simple fact, he just has to comply with the sound, so I do not see why I would put 130 or 150 € in this type of pedal.
    The price / quality ratio is excellent.

    an analog tremolo effect between two outputs, mono or stereo

    UTILIZATION

    it takes a little time to find its settings, as the range covered is great, but once found it's great, I use it a lot in stereo and attention because if we go back to mono settings are not the same for keep the same sound, so 2 settings found
    over the knobs are very sensitive follower of zero / background will have a finger chopper, as a few millimeters changes everything!
    Only drawback, the settings are still different depending on whether battery powered or transformer (voltage influences much I feel, indeed the transformer 9v just so rare, so the batteries) but nothing really annoying

    I use it for 4 years, I am very satisfied, especially in stereo, so I do it again this purchase without problem

    Then it is a rather unusual tremolo and it takes a little time to make the turn and really understand it. Fully analog settings it offers depth / shape / rate things that are a little weird and a selector sawtooth (saw) / square (square).
    There are two outputs for the stereo, but only one entry so you are bound to affect as mono before and usually the tremolo is all the time string that can cause problems (like a stereo delay, not possible, a synthetic stereo either ...)
    The pedal is light but seems sturdy, the knobs are a bit heavy is nickel. It is smaller than the single pulsar, it is as long as a boss and is about 1 cm more width.

    There are two outputs for the stereo, but only one entry so you are bound to affect as mono before and usually the tremolo is all the time string that can cause problems (like a stereo delay, not possible, a synthetic stereo either ...)
    The pedal is light but seems sturdy, the knobs are a bit heavy is nickel. It is smaller than the single pulsar, it is as long as a boss and is about 1 cm more width.

    Power is supplied to the standard Boss / Ibanez, 9 Volt DC, + on the outer ring - the inner consumes 100mA, 200mA power supply is one recommended by the record. The location for the battery (I had provided a ...) frankly leaves to be desired, it is basically "just like that between circuits ...". So it's a bit rock'n'roll but ... There's a kind of piece of foam slightly to accommodate informed. I use a good pout my external power supply.

    The small loupiote red lights when the effect is activated and its brightness varies according to the parameters of the effect. Bypass LED is off, it does not see the beating, it's a good detail ...

    I would not put 10 for single entry ... (How I do me for my keyboard? My line6 echo park she did that, it:-p)

    UTILIZATION

    So I will detail how to work a little beast ... It's quite surprising, but it's a monster versatility.

    Button depth is special because it is the way to 13h/14h (not 17h), it goes beyond the negative. That is, he does reappear in phase opposition signal or something like that, the "tempo" of tremolo and then multiplied by two but with a sound a little dull for once in opposition of phase. It allows you to make rhythmic 3-level, instead of 1 / 0 as a classic tremolo, it makes 1/0/-1/0 etc ... It's very interesting to diversify, especially for what follows.
    The button shape, which is usually used to go from one form of a sine square has a different role here. Saw mode, it will amount to a saw saw a top-down passnt saw a symmetrical, which is very close to a sinus when we play a little with depth. Mode square is played on the length of the opening, at least the sound is cut all the time, to the maximum open time at noon is 50/50 (tremolo regular and symmetrical).
    It may therefore be in good vintage as in the modern mega hyper ground, and little more in the interaction of the two first button is playing with the depth of opposition phase and length of opening of the square wave or saw, you can have a tremolo in the shuffle bit crooked in either ... It's magical and I know no one who did that.

    The button does not surprise special rate, it is a tremolo than the second (violoning) up to very high, the variation is still visible but uncountable.

    Small flat, button shape varies a bit rate ... The more one goes in the direction of clockwise over the slow rate. It's weird, it does so in both modes, it is not very logical because the period should be independent of the waveform but ... It can sometimes be a little handicapping (for a readjustment live on stage for example). 10 not just for that, because otherwise it deserves.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Really nice, I've played on the tremolo Marshall, nothing to see. The saw can be very soft, very vintage, the square can be very aggressive. The settings are extensive and progressive and weight / resistance allows for a lot of precision, unlike some pedals where the buttons are so light they turn too easily and the settings are often compromised or less because that happens not to be precise.
    It blows a little bit, but it's very light, much less a whammy for example. And as a pedal of this kind that starts the chain end, or at least after the saturation, there's no reason to change that.
    A common criticism of the volume problems with tremolos. This is mainly due to the fact that playing as the effect on the volume, it is almost never fully (with a sine or saw at least), so the ear hears a sound close to 75 or 80% volume bypassed. On that one sound to be boosted a little bit because in the end it's more balanced that it is only a small loss in saw mode (almost inaudible in the average values ​​of depth and shape) and a small gain more square, but I'm not even sure ... again it depends on the settings of shape and depth.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use intensemment for a week and I'm really pleased. It is a perfect all-round, it just music or surfing the cyber-punk two-stroke knob is great ... We quickly get to the beauty of the saw for ballads that make girls cry, and quickly take his guitar for a synth with the square. Put a saturation and a phaser and just before it is huge as it does, according to the saturation you can go kind of synth not Get Fooled Again punish those of ...
    Brief € 69 on the net ... Need I say more. Nothing to lose and I do not think you can really be disappointed with such a tremolo as it is very versatile and the parameters are very broad.
    It must nevertheless take the time to get to the settings, get used to the depth that is the way to the mid race and to be careful to shape that moves a bit rate, perhaps 10 bpm between the two extremes still so this means, right after, which will hear the details of a waveform of a tremolo live fully in its own guitarist ...

    SOUND QUALITY

    Obviously this one is waiting, the tremolo is beautiful, very hot, quality and setting possibilities are bluffing. Vintage or modern, at times limited vibrato, ring modulator in the extremes, coupled with other effects (chorus, delay) it can go far in space. No noise reduction noticed a slight boost even more (high volume amp), very quiet pedal does not click in the background as another.

    OVERALL OPINION

    A 69 euro store is unbeatable value for money, the other offering a tremolo sound quality are at least equivalent to more and even more than 100 euro.

    Honestly I think it's a foot flagship of the brand that has many, this is a real success.

    We must spend time, but what a pleasure to find three or four typical settings to know by heart for quick then it's pro stuff, nothing to say.

    I found the tremolo!
