The Voodoo Lab Tremolo pedal is a guitar pedal that can be used with any electronic instrument in addition to an electric guitar. The pedal is an analog one and has standard 1/4 inch connections. I'm not sure the exact voltage on the pedal, but I used a power supply that was suited specifically for it. This isn't a rack mountable piece of gear as it is a foot pedal.
UTILIZATION
Using the Voodoo Lab Tremolo pedal isn't complicated at all as it has some standard parameters. It has knobs for intensity, slope, speed, and volume and all are easily accessed and manipulated. These parameters definitely provide enough control over your sound to make it possible to get a wide selection of different tremolo and vibrato tones. This is pretty much a fool proof pedal to use and even if you aren't familiar with what the parameters will do before hand, playing around with them for a few minutes will give you some ideas. I've never seen the manual for this pedal so I can't say how well put together it is or not.
SOUND QUALITY
I'm definitely a big fan of the way the Voodoo Lab Tremolo pedal sounds as it not only has a great deal of versatility, but has a clean tone across the board no matter how you set the parameters. I use the pedal whenever I don't have access to a Fender amp with vibrato, and generally play a Fender Stratocaster with it. I love the sounds that I'm able to get with this pedal and it is one of the better tremolo pedals that I have used out there...
OVERALL OPINION
If you are looking for a tremolo pedal that is versatile and has a great tone quality, the Voodoo Lab Tremolo pedal needs to be in the discussion. While there are certainly other tremolo pedals out there that have comparable sound quality and even better, this pedal is absolutely worthy of a try. The price isn't too expensive and it is built like a brick so as long as you treat it reasonably well it should last a while. All in all, if you are looking for a great sounding tremolo pedal and don't already have vibrato or tremolo on your amp, this pedal is a popular item for a good reason.
