Own and use lots of guitar pedals at my studio. This one is very unique and the reason I got it, different. I use it mainly for 1 thing, with a Digitech Freakout combined I can get a kind of ebow effect while jumping between multiple strings and chords. Cant do that with an ebow, have 1 of those too. It also has an inbuilt distortion with tone that sounds great. The sensitivity function is also good. Often run synth through it too for some unusual effects with the blend control, can create a drone behind fast note motifs. Also good for swells. Need to experiment with it more to bring out it's full potential ( fx loop option/reverse fx simulation ) but happy with what I use it for at the moment. Unique, don't know of another pedal that can do something similar.

Great tool for ambient music
BileBass 31.12.2025
All in all very usefull tool especially for creation of the tone swells and violin type of sound. In some cases it can replace volume pedal in this matter, but it requires some time to get the feeling how to manage it. I like presets ability and it's very handfull. The only drawback of this unit is it's fuzz part. It doesn't make classic fuzz which I'd prefer, but some digital representation which can sound strange for my ears and I needed some time to set it up to my preference. All in all if you need attack pedal, this is the most versatile one...

Unusual pedal, useful for special effects
Corncrake 03.07.2023
There aren't many pedals (if any) that do the same as this one. I find the envelope features very flexible and usable. The fuzz isn't very useful to me. If it could do an octave up and down instead of fuzz it would be great, but I suppose this would overlap with the pog2 too much. Anyway, this pedal extends the capabilities of the instrument and I wouldn't sell it.
