yoTrakkzreally cheap price
Published on 12/11/11 at 22:42This is a vibrato pedal, even though the name doesn't really indicate that at all. Technically it is chorus and vibrato, which gives it a bit of a different feel. There are the standard 1/4" input and output as well as the input for the power supply. This is an analog pedal. There are no MIDI capabilities, and the device cannot be hooked up to a computer.
UTILIZATION
The editing on this pedal could not be simpler. There are two knobs: one for rate and one for depth. There is also a switch that changes the effect from chorus to vibrato. The manual is pretty much unnecessary unless you need further definition for what these effects are, in which case you probably should not have bought...…

SOUND QUALITY
Like the pedal's namesake, I prefer to use this with a Strat, but rather than a Marshall I use my trusty Twin. This is a pretty cool vibrato pedal. It can actually get a surprising range of sounds for having only the two knobs. There is the basic "wiggly" vibrato that gave the pedal its name, and that sound actually dominates most of the settings. There's actually one configuration that will give you a decent Leslie speaker emulation too, which I think is an unexpected but surely welcome bonus. The chorus effect I find less appealing, but that's because I generally like that effect less in general. As a chorus, though, it holds up pretty well. It avoids modulating too hard, and doesn't drastically alter your tone the way that a lesser digital pedal will.
OVERALL OPINION
I like the fact that this pedal is really cheap, and actually has a great sound. Like most Moen pedals, there are certainly better ones out there, but it's surprising that this one is actually so much cheaper and can still hang with those. I'd recommend this to anyone who really feels the need for a good vibrato but doesn't want to pay too much money

(Originally written by solo84/translated from Audiofanzine FR)
- Analog tremolo effect (digital tremolo effects are rare!).
- Sturdy and small metal housing (convenient if your pedalboard is already full).
-Two controls, input, output, Boss-type 9-volt DC PSU connector (negative center)
- Battery compartment (remove the rubber border to release the aluminum bottom... It seems bothersome but it isn't and it actually takes the same time as if you would change the battery of a Boss pedal...
- Effective logic bypass that doesn't alter the sound.
UTILIZATION
It's ultra easy.
Very effective controls. The effect ranges from a very slow tremolo to a machine gun!

SOUND QUALITY
I read a review in Guitar Part where they praised the device and said they were surprised by its quality... Me too!! Much better than a TR2! As its name implies, it really sounds like a Vox...
I recommend you to try it out before buying it because the effect does color the sound a bit, like a slight tube overdrive would and it boosts the signal 2 or 3 dB. So it's a matter of taste! I personally sold it again because I was fed up with its light distortion! Now I have a Tremulator that's perfect for me!
But I repeat it, it's all a matter of taste!
I heard that if you open it you'll find a trim control that allows you to do some additional settings but I didn't try it out.
OVERALL OPINION
It's a good effect pedal you have to try out before buying it. Excellent value for money!

Vibrato-classic type channel tube amp vintage ...
-100% Analog
UTILIZATION
Two-buttons: Speed and Intensity
and a switch that snaps (silent what)
-See! not need manual.
Two jacks and power supply in the ass is good, it avoids stepping on them!
And she's tiny!
SOUND QUALITY
-The sound of a channel tube amp period! ouahhh
-Used with an LP, or TV, or even a mandolin, while all this retro. Nickel!
-Sound: a good vibrato, which tends to cruncher a little (as good EHX), and boosted the signal a bit (effective end of the chain to give peps!)
But I put my 9 for that. it lacks a level set out.
OVERALL OPINION
I've had four months, and are to me very useful to...…

OVERALL OPINION
I've had four months, and are to me very useful to bring a touch of retro to my sounds at times. I use it mostly with my mandolin, or, I do some Neil Young ...
With the Electro Harmonix Pulsar is the only one that sounds really vintage, the big difference that did not Guyatone many settings and the signal comes out a little harder. (The small Stone her, against you for lost volume ...)
With experience, I'd take both! In fact, there m ^ me faidrait the model but without altering the original volume! I put 9 for that. Level out please!
Unless you use me as a channel éxculivement full tremolo. Two settings are enough, unless one wants to put across!
