sweet sounds collection and easy to use
ChrisVerwimp 11.11.2020
I was already tempted by it while it was sold for a 100€. Reviews on Youtube and other medias were all great.
When I saw it down to 66€, it was an insta-buy.
Effects and amp sims are sweet. Looper and rythm are nice addition even if I don't really care for them as of right now.
Its shell is plastic but nonetheless it feels heavy and solid. I was affraid to receive a china made crappy gizmo, happy surprise.
While unpacking it, I was anyway a bit disappointed when I saw that it was sold without any power source other than the offered 4 AA-batteries. Quick inspection showed also no sing of a real power switch on the pedal.
My first thought was that I will be forced to install those batteries each and every time I will be using the pedal.
Well call me stupid or ignorant, its powering itself on and off whenever you plug/unplug the input jack. Sweet!
Anyway, if you got one laying around, it can be powered via B-type micro usb cable (smartphone charge cable) or an usual 9v dc lead.
So all an' all, quite happy with it. Once again, for that kind of money, it's worth every cent.

Very much useable
GMK Bass 10.06.2022
First of all, for this price.... You can't ask for more.
That being said, yes ofcourse, you will most likely NEVER get sounds that you will get from Darkglass or something along that line. However, if you actually spend some time (A LOT of time) with it, you will get very competitive tones out of this pedal. EQ section is definitely pretty solid, but more specialized effects such as phaser or distortion is.. okay.. ish....

The construction is VERY uninspiring. The outer casing looks like low quality straight out Audi interior... ;) I have gigged this pedal 3 times so far, I haven't had any problems with parts falling or snapping off, and hopefully it stays that way.

You can set different channels up with different sounds, or you can set it up according to your setlist. Each channel houses up to 5 different effects, and it comes with a function where you can disengage each effect by stomping on the left pedal. Pretty cool. I'm a bassist, and I don't use a whole lot of different effects, so if I wanted to, I could set up a sound and effects I need for a typical setlist into one channel.

Overall, I recommend it. Do spend some time with it when you get it. It's worth the price (very low price).
